The wetgas meters market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.75% between 2022 and 2027. The market size is forecast to increase by USD 617.01 million. The growth of the market depends on several factors, including the shifting focus of oil and gas E&P activities to unconventional sources, growth in global coalbed methane production, and favorable government support for gas utilities.
This wetgas meters market report extensively covers market segmentation by application (onshore and offshore), type (stainless steel and brass), and geography (Europe, North America, APAC, Middle East and Africa, and South America). It also includes an in-depth analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges. Furthermore, the report includes historic market data from 2017 to 2021.

The shifting focus of oil and gas E&P activities to unconventional sources is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the uncertainties associated with low crude oil and gas prices may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Shifting focus of oil and gas E&P activities to unconventional sources is a key wetgas meters market driver. Oil companies are increasingly shifting their operations to unconventional oil and gas resources such as tight oil, shale oil, shale gas, and CBM. For these unconventional resources, the oil industry needs advanced on-site processing equipment to increase ROI. Heavy oil is a highly viscous, dense oil. Heavy oil is mainly found in 192 basins around the world. Non-traditional upstream oil and gas operations use wet gas meters to continuously measure oil, gas, and water without phase separation from the initial hydrocarbon stream produced from hydrocarbon wells. There are three main types of wet gas meters used in non-traditional upstream oil and gas operations.
These include the Type I Wet Gas Metering System, a single-phase commercial gas meter that measures gas and liquid flow rates in typical wells. Type II wet gas measurement systems are used to measure flow rates during production wellheads or well tests. Type III wet gas metering systems are polyphase gas meters used to measure the flow of oil, water, and gas mixtures. Therefore, increasing production activities of unconventional oil and gas resources such as tight oil, shale oil, shale gas, and coalbed methane (CBM) production are expected to drive the growth of the wet gas meter market.
An increase in global LNG trade is a key trend prevailing in the wetgas meters market. LNG trading has experienced dynamic changes in recent years. On the supply side, we are seeing growth with new projects being launched around the world.LNG trade is gaining global importance due to the advantages of natural gas as a fuel in the global energy mix. Asia remains the most important region for LNG production. Demand for LNG is increasing in China, India and other Asian countries, and the liquefied natural gas market in these countries is growing faster than coal and oil.
Moreover, these top regions exporting LNG include North America, Australia, Middle East, Africa and Russia. The most important importing countries include parts of Asia, Europe and South America. LNG is growing seven times faster than the pipeline gas trade and is projected to account for about half of all gas traded worldwide by 2035. Such factors will increase the market growth during the forecast period.
Uncertainties associated with low crude oil and gas prices is the major challenge restricting the market. The recent volatility in global oil prices (since February 2022) due to the Russo-Ukrainian war has had a severe impact on the global oil industry. Russia is one of the largest oil and gas producers. The territorial invasion of Ukraine has had a negative impact on the energy sector around the world, especially in Europe. The war between Russia and Ukraine has complicated trade relations between almost all countries as the European Union and other countries have imposed sanctions on oil exports from Russia.
After Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, the US president signed an executive order on March 8, 2022, banning imports of Russian oil, natural gas and coal. For example, volatility in global crude oil prices caused turmoil in the oil and gas industry, ultimately adversely affecting investment in the upstream oil and gas sector. Such factors will hinder the market growth during the forecast period.

The onshore segment was valued at USD 1,193.42 million in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. Onshore upstream oil and gas E&P activities and projects have been in existence for more than a century and have experienced continuous technological advancements focused on increasing oil and gas production. Globally, onshore oil and gas development activities are concentrated in the United States, Canada, Russia and many Middle Eastern countries. Russia, the United States, Saudi Arabia and Mexico are increasing investment in upstream oil and gas projects. However, global oil price volatility has become a major challenge, hindering the development of conventional and unconventional oil and gas projects.

North America is estimated to contribute 30% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. Another region offering significant growth opportunities to vendors is Europe. Oil and gas fields in European countries are reaching maturity and production from these more mature oil and gas fields is declining. Most European countries are facing production problems due to the depletion of oil and gas reserves. Therefore, European countries' dependence on oil and gas imports continues to increase. However, many countries are stepping up oil and gas E&P activities to curb their dependence on imports. Additionally, several initiatives have been taken by various governments in the region to ensure energy security.
In Europe, the outbreak of COVID-19 hampered the demand for wetgas meters significantly from the regional oil and gas sector in Q1 2020. However, as the pandemic slowly subsided due to the easing of lockdown restrictions and the implementation of mass COVID-19 vaccination drives in 2021, the oil and gas industry in Europe witnessed a revival in its growth. The resumption of drilling operations in the regional oil and gas industry and the restoration of supply chain operations among gas utilities augmented the demand for wetgas meters in 2021. Furthermore, several new oil and gas field development projects and upstream oil and gas investments will support oil and gas E&P operations. As a result, oil and gas drilling activities will also increase and, subsequently, drive the growth of the wetgas meters market in the region during the forecast period.
