Advances in heat tracing components such as a self-regulating cable for heat tracing are paving new growth milestones

Heat tracing methods are used to trap the loss of heat which occurs during fluid transfer in the piping systems. Heat tracing happens during heat mobility across electrical wires or tubes and helps in regulating and maintaining an optimum temperature within the piping system.

The electric heat tracing method is a freeze barrier practice most prevalent in piping systems to maintain optimum temperature across piping insulation infrastructure. To avoid unusual rise in fluid temperatures, heat tracing is crucial across end-use applications comprising oil and gas. The global electric heat tracing market is estimated to be worth USD 3.2 billion, registering a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast span, 2021-2028.s

Large scale end-user adoption of electric heat tracing to offset the challenges of production deficit, lack of efficiency, and resource mismanagement resulting in faulty production owing to freezing have amplified electric heat tracing reliance. Occurences of frozen pipes and viscosity rise are quite common during winters which drastically affect overall production and industrial efficiency. Besides offering ample freeze barrier capabilities electrical heat tracing is integral to maintain viscosity and uniformity in fluid transfer allowing users to streamline and control productivity.

The oil and gas industry is one of the prominent end-use industries of electric heat tracing. Several market players specifically invest in developing advanced heat tracing components to achieve temperature maintenance.

The leading players in the global electric heat tracing market invest in new growth strategies and portfolio differentiation projects to fortify their position in the global competitive landscape.
