Report Highlights:

  • By raw material, the steel segment will remain the most attractive segment of the global cryogenic market during the forecast period, as steel is able to withstand these extreme temperatures and the thermal stresses that occur during the storage and transportation of cryogenic fluids. It also has excellent corrosion resistance and can be easily formed into various shapes and sizes, making it a versatile material for cryogenic tank construction. The nickel alloy is expected to dominate the global cryogenic tank market. The segment's growth is attributed to its excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance at low temperatures.
  • By cryogenic liquid, the nitrogen segment dominates the global cryogenic tank market. The rising demand for liquified nitrogen from manufacturing industries and the healthcare sector is considered to maintain the dominance of the nitrogen segment during the forecast period. At the same time, the natural gas segment is witnessing the fastest growth owing to the rising consumption of environmentally cleaner cryogenic liquids across the globe.
  • By application, the storage segment leads the global cryogenic tanks market. Cryogenic liquids in the medical sector and other manufacturing units require a specific storage facility to maintain their temperature. Thus, storage becomes the most powerful application for cryogenic tanks. Improving capacity and advanced designs of cryogenic tanks for storage are observed to preserve the dominance of the storage segment. At the same time, the development of advanced trucks and vehicles to carry and deliver cryogenic liquids will boost the growth of the transportation segment during the projected timeframe.
  • By end-user, the healthcare sector leads the global cryogenic tanks market. The improving healthcare sector and rising demand for oxygen tanks in hospitals will maintain the dominance of the healthcare segment in the market. The manufacturing segment is another significant segment of the market, with the enormous demand for tanks to transport and store cryogenic gases in the construction and manufacturing industries.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rising industrialization across the globe

Industrial processes such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) production, chemical manufacturing, and medical gas production require the use of cryogenic tanks to store and transport materials that need to be kept at extremely low temperatures. As industrialization continues to grow globally, the demand for these materials and the need for reliable and efficient storage and transport solutions for them also increase. This creates significant opportunities for the cryogenic tank market, as cryogenic tanks are a critical component in ensuring the safe and efficient storage and transport of cryogenic materials.

Moreover, the demand for cryogenic tanks is also driven by the growing need for alternative energy sources, such as LNG, which requires cryogenic tanks for storage and transport. Cryogenic tanks are also used in the storage and transportation of other cryogenic liquids, such as liquid hydrogen and helium, which are increasingly being used in fuel cells and other energy applications. Overall, the growth of industrialization is driving the demand for cryogenic tanks, creating opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers of cryogenic tanks, as well as for companies involved in the construction and operation of industrial facilities and infrastructure.

Restraint:

Safety concerns associated with cryogenic tanks

Cryogenic tanks are used to store and transport materials at extremely low temperatures, typically below -150°C (-238°F), which can pose significant safety risks if the tanks are not designed, operated, and maintained properly. Cryogenic fluids can pose a fire or explosion hazard if they come into contact with certain materials, such as organic materials, fuels, or oxidizers. In addition, cryogenic tanks can rupture if they are exposed to high temperatures or pressures, which can result in an explosion or release of the stored material. Cryogenic fluids can displace oxygen in the air, which can pose a risk of asphyxiation if they leak from the tank or are released during transport or use. This can be particularly dangerous in confined spaces like storage facilities or transport vehicles. Such risks associated with cryogenic tanks make it challenging to obtain regulatory approvals and can limit the adoption of cryogenic tanks in specific applications; this is observed as a significant restraint for the market’s growth.

Opportunity:

The rising demand for liquified natural gas (LNG)

The demand for liquified natural gas is significantly growing, driven by factors such as the transition to cleaner-burning fuel sources and the increasing use of natural gas for power generation. Cryogenic tanks used for LNG storage and transport are constructed of materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, or other high-strength alloys. They are designed to withstand the extreme cold and pressure conditions of LNG. These tanks are typically large and can hold hundreds of thousands of gallons of LNG. They are used in various applications, including LNG storage and regasification terminals, as well as onboard LNG carriers and other vessels. As the demand for LNG continues to grow, the need for reliable and cost-effective cryogenic tanks will increase. This presents significant opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers of cryogenic tanks, as well as for companies involved in the construction and operation of LNG facilities and infrastructure.

Challenge:

Availability of competitive alternative technologies

The cryogenic tanks market faces competition from alternative technologies; each has its advantages. Adsorption-based storage systems use porous materials to store gases or liquids at low temperatures. The most vibrant competitive alternative for cryogenic tanks, compressed gas storage, is typically less expensive than cryogenic tanks, and these systems can offer similar benefits to cryogenic tanks. On the other hand, Phase Change Material (PCM) storage systems use materials that change phase from solid to liquid at low temperatures to store and release heat. These systems can be used to store cryogenic fluids and offer the potential for high energy density and efficiency. The presence of such alternative technologies for carrying cryogenic liquids poses a challenge to the growth of the cryogenic tanks market.
