Market CAGR for cryogenic valve is being driven by the increased demand from the oil and gas industry. Cryogenic valves are widely utilised in the oil and gas industry, including the upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors. Upstream valves control the flow of natural gas and crude oil from high-pressure injection systems to choke valves and blow-out preventers at the top of wells. New sources of oil and gas, such as tar sands and shale formations, have increased demand for cryogenic valves, as they need compressing oil and gas to high pressure and low temperature before transporting it to processing facilities. Oil and gas resources are stored and transported from remote sources, such as deepwater fields in Alaska's tundra or the North Sea, where shallow temperatures are required to convert natural gas into natural gas liquids (GL), which are then transported from remote gas fields to the market for gas consumption. Unique cryogenic valve designs are required for loading/unloading terminals, oil and gas storage tanks, and cryogenic temperatures. This opens up new potential for valve suppliers.
The pharmaceutical industry also makes use of cryogenic technologies. The medications and vaccinations are made and stored at extremely low temperatures. Recently, the expansion of COVID-19 and its vaccine delivery's demand for lower storage and shipping temperatures have pushed governments to engage in developing the cryogenic cold chain in the pharmaceutical business. total pharmaceutical sales are predicted to exceed USD 1.58 trillion by 2024, according to IQVIA Institute forecasts released in March 2020. Experts predict that by 2024, five of the top ten best-selling pharmaceuticals will require 2-8°C cold-chain storage and handling. The FDA's Centre for Biologic Evaluation and Research (CBER), which reviews vaccines and blood products, authorised 22 licences for novel biologic goods in 2019, 21 of which required cold-chain handling.
Cryogenic valves used in the biotech and pharmaceutical industries are also designed and proven to work in sanitary and clean steam applications at low temperatures. As a result, rising applications in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries are boosting demand for cryogenic valves.
Furthermore, a growing emphasis on expanding the use of liquefied gases in a variety of industry verticals is projected to boost industry growth. The increasing utilisation potential is driving a surge in the deployment of customised on-site liquefaction facilities to effectively produce, transmit, and store cryogenic. For example, Japan-based Kawasaki Heavy Industries announced in March 2020 that it would outfit a maritime vessel with a liquid hydrogen storage tank for low-emission propulsion. The business also indicated that further outfitting operations, such as plumbing installations, will be completed by October 2020. The concept is consistent with its Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) initiative, which includes hydrogen liquefaction, transmission, storage, and offloading terminals.
The Cryogenic Valve Market segmentation, based on gas includes LNG, Oxygen, Nitrogen And Others. The LNG category dominated the market and is expected to grow at a 4.6% CAGR during the forecast period. Unlike many cryogenic applications, the reason for employing LNG is not the availability of lower temperatures, but rather the huge volume reduction (more than a factor of 600 between natural gas at atmospheric pressure and temperature and LNG.

The Cryogenic Valve Market segmentation, based on type includes globe valve, gate valve, ball valve, check valve and others. The gate valve segment dominated the market. A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, opens by lifting a round or rectangular gate or ledge above the flow path of the fluid. A gate valve is distinguished by the sealing surfaces in the same plane that connect the gate and the seats. A gate valve also has a rising stem (the section of the valve to which the handwheel is attached) and a non-rising handwheel. The platter is totally retracted when a gate valve is completely opened. A gate valve is used for on/off applications. It should not, however, be used for repetitive operation or throttling, since this may cause seat erosion.
The Cryogenic Valve Market segmentation, based on end-user, includes energy & power, food & beverage, chemicals and others. In 2022, the energy & power category is estimated to account for a significant portion of the market. When biological tissues, such as blood, organs, and tissue samples, are transported or stored at high temperatures, they are endangered. Cryogenics is the use of freezing temperatures to preserve tissues. The technique's ability to reduce cell oxygen intake, allowing for longer-term storage without injury or degradation, has led to its widespread use in medical science for preservation. Cryogenic valves are widely utilised, particularly in the food and beverage processing industries' brewing and bottling sectors.
The Cryogenic Valve Market segmentation, based on application includes tanks & cold boxes, transfer lines, manifolds & gas trains. The transfer lines segment led the market and will continue to do so over the projection period. The growing demand for LNG fuels the expansion of the transfer lines segment.
