Market Introduction
Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and the UAE are among the key countries in the Middle East & Africa. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, UAE, Iran, Kuwait is the Middle East's top 5 revenue generating countries. Scrubber systems are likely to play a vital role in achieving zero emissions and zero discharge for industrial manufacturing, marine, petrochemical, automotive, public utilities, and other sectors. Various initiatives taken up by the enterprises to implement scrubber systems to reduce labor costs on clean-up techniques and time and growing stringent environmental regulations to reduce atmospheric emissions are the crucial aspect of the rise in the market revenue of scrubber system market. However, strict legislation about the disposal of contaminated wastes from scrubber systems may hamper the market growth in the coming years. This is due to the Saudi Port Authority's decision not to allow ships’ discharge of wash water from their exhaust gas cleaning systems (EGCS) following the General Authority of Meteorology and Environmental protection instructions. Increasing application of SOx removal scrubber technology in maritime industry and accelerating industrialization in developing economies are the major factor driving the growth of the MEA scrubber systems market.
Countries in MEA, especially South Africa and Turkey, are highly affected due to the COVID-19 outbreak. In Middle East, the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) countries witnessed a notable decline in the oil & gas sector owing to a sharp decline in demand for oil from major end-user countries across Asia, Europe, and North America. As a result, the MEA countries registered a lowered volume of oil & gas production, which hampered the demand for scrubber systems. Countries such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar, as well as selected other members of OPEC countries, observed similar trends during the first two quarters of 2020. However, the countries are expected to overcome the swift drop in demand in the coming years as the major end-use countries of oil & gas are resuming their economic activities. Hence, it is expected that the demand for scrubbers would increase in the region and proliferate the market growth in the coming years.
Market Overview and Dynamics
The MEA scrubber systems market is expected to grow from US$ 82.90 million in 2021 to US$ 192.28 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.8% from 2021 to 2028. Rising international trades through sea routes and increasing leisure activities are propelling the growth of the scrubber system market. The rise in seaborne business can be attributed to its economical transportation cost and continually rising demand for goods and petroleum products. For instance, as per the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), in 2019, 11,076 million tons of goods were transported through seaborne routes. To transport this mass volume of goods, large cargo ships are required. These ships are among the major users of scrubber systems. Furthermore, the rising participation in leisure activities such as cruise vacations and the international voyage is increasing the use of marine ships and subsequently fueling the growth of the scrubber system market. The rise in leisure activities can be attributed to the rising per capita income of consumers. Hence, the growing sulfur emission from ships—owing to flourishing trade—and escalated maritime transportation across the economies are boosting the scrubber system installations. Thus, the thriving international business through seaborne routes is accelerating the demand for retrofit scrubber systems in traditional vessels across MEA region.
