Oil Spill Management Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2014 - 2020
M2 - Tue Jun 09, 5:59AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wsnczm/oil_spill) has announced the addition of the "Oil Spill Management Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2014 - 2020" report to their offering. The global oil spill management can be divided into pre- and post-oil spill management scenarios. Pre-oil spill management deals with utilization of technologies to prevent oil spills. Post-oil spill management deals with different methods employed to contain, manage or clean an oil spill. Increasing seaborne and pipeline transportation of crude oil and chemicals around the world is one the major factors influencing the oil spill management market. Moreover, stringent regulations pertaining to the utilization of safety devices and technologies while drilling or transporting crude oil is an additional factor augmenting the oil spill management market. The pre-oil spill management technologies include double hulling of ships, installation of blowout preventers, and pipeline leak detection systems. Increased drilling activities coupled with stringent government regulations against oil spillage are the major factors fueling the demand for BOPs. High cost associated with double hulling of ships is one of the major factors for the large market share of the double hulling segment. Stringent International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations mandating the construction of double-hulled ships has further contributed to the large market share. Leaks in oil and gas pipelines have also remained a major cause of concern for pipeline operators, primarily owing to the implied risks and costs associated with such incidents. The costs associated with leakages can be in the form of lawsuits, clean-up costs, and restoration costs. Uneven distribution of fossil fuel resources along with the growing demand for energy across nations has resulted in an increased demand for hydrocarbon logistics solutions including pipelines. These pipeline installations would certainly benefit the companies providing pipeline leak detection systems. Pipeline leak detection systems alarm pipeline operators in case of a leakage from any crude oil or refined product pipelines. Some of the key participants in the global oil spill management market include Cameron International Corporation, National Oilwell Varco, Control Flow Inc., Fender & Spill Response Services L.L.C., Northern Tanker Company Oy, SkimOil, Inc., Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., GE Oil & Gas, COSCO Shipyard Group Co., Ltd., CURA Emergency Services, and Ecolab Inc.
