Natural gas is gradually replacing other fossil fuels for electricity generation. It is gaining popularity around the world as a fuel for power generation. Not only does natural gas have a lower carbon footprint, it is also considered an ideal substitute for coal. This will increase the demand for natural gas. As the demand for fuel increases, the need for these services at distribution centers is expected to increase.
Additionally, a continuous and uninterrupted supply of natural gas for power generation requires adequate gas storage facilities to store excess gas. This will increase the need for increased capacity, contributing to the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
Digitization and the Internet of Things (IoT) are significantly transforming the global market by introducing innovative technologies that improve efficiency, safety, and reliability across the industry. One of the important aspects of industrial digitization is the application of IoT devices and sensors. These sensors are mainly placed in these facilities to collect real-time data on various parameters including temperature, pressure, humidity, and device status.
In addition, digital solutions improve security by monitoring access to critical infrastructure and ensuring compliance with security protocols. Hence, the rising adoption of digital technologies to enhance these operations is expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Crude oil price volatility is one of the biggest challenges facing the industry, as the volatile price environment can have a severe impact on new exploration and production (E&P) investment, refinery expansion, and contract prices. This could affect demand for these services. Any unforeseen price movement can change the course of the entire market in a short time. The oil and gas industry is affected by frequent fluctuations in crude oil prices.
Furthermore, the drop in oil and gas prices in the market has a direct impact on customers using warehousing services, putting pressure on the entire value chain. Volatility in oil and gas prices can directly affect the contract prices of these providers, resulting in low profits or unsustainable operations, which may impede the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The power plants segment will account for a major share of the market's growth during the forecast period.?Power plants play an important role in the production of electricity and their reliable operation depends on an available and safe source of fuel, such as natural gas or oil. These plants depend on natural gas or diesel fuel to get up to speed quickly and generate electricity when needed. To ensure uninterrupted supply during peak times, these plants have on-site storage tanks filled with the necessary fuel. The for power plants must be carefully managed to avoid supply disruptions.

The power plants segment was valued at USD 4.05 billion in 2018. Environmental considerations are rising influencing fuel choices in power plants, with a shift towards cleaner options such as natural gas or renewable energy sources. This transition could negatively impact demand for traditional petroleum-based storage solutions in the power generation segment. However, as the grid continues to depend on a combination of multiple energy sources, this will still be necessary to ensure grid stability and energy security in extreme situations, thereby driving the growth of the market in the power plants segment during the forecast period.
Based on service, the market has been segmented into storage services and ancillary services. The storage services?segment will account for the largest share of this segment. One of the main roles of these services is to act as a buffer in the energy supply chain, bridging the gap between production and consumption. During periods of overproduction, surplus oil and gas can be stored for future use, but during periods of high demand or production disruptions, reserves are stored to maintain a steady supply. Additionally, global population growth and increased demand for petroleum products from emerging markets are driving development and refinery companies to expand production. Rising demand for oil and gas will increase the need for these services, which will drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
