Heavy-Duty Gas Turbine Services Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis By Service (Overhaul, Maintenance, Repair, others), By End-User (Oil & Gas, Power Generation, Aerospace, Marine, Others) And Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Gas turbines have been in utilization for over a long period and are widely integrated across different verticals to suffice the exponentially increasing electricity demand across the globe. Consequenlty, gas turbine services are effectively applied to perform maintenance and repair operations to optimize the operational efficiency of the systems.

In comparison to aero-derivative systems, heavy-duty turbines are designed to operate over a variety of fuels and deliver enhanced output with low defects. However, the presence of complex large-sized machinery requires frequent inspection and repair actions. Therefore, the different types of services provide enable less effort to remove and replace components in the plants.

• As per the industry giant General Electric (GE), U.S.-based energy equipment delivering conglomerate offers heavy-duty gas turbines with an output ranging from tens of MW to over 570 MW. The systems are fabricated to function in a combined and simple-cycle design for applications in combined heat and power (CHP), fast and emergency power, utility power generation, grid firming, and many more.

The rising energy demand coupled with the expanding industrial infrastructure has resulted in the installation of numerous reliable technologies to cater to the increasing consumption. Gas turbines are a type of internal combustion (IC) engine with different components such as compressor, combustor, downstream turbine, and turbofans aligned to power pumps, aircraft, locomotives, marine vessels, electrical generators, gas compressors, and various others.

• According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the total natural gas consumption across the globe equaled about 76.01 million terajoule-gross (TJ-gross) by the end of 2019. The organization also published that the total intake observed a year-on-year increase of around 1.42 million TJ-gross rising from nearly 74.59 million TJ-gross in 2018.

Developed regions such as North America have observed a significant utilization of different fuels to generate electricity annually. Regional nations including the U.S. and Canada are likely to be among the key countries shaping the industry trends for the global heavy-duty gas turbine services market.

• For instance, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) stated that the total electricity generation across the country totaled 4.12 trillion kilowatt-hours (kWh) in 2020. The government-backed agency further reported that natural gas fuel used across steam and gas turbines dominated the generation source constituting around 40% of the overall production.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON THE BENCH POWER SUPPLY MARKET

The global heavy-duty gas turbine services market is likely to observe substantial turmoil with the emergence of the spread of novel coronavirus or SARS‐CoV‐2. The halts in the industrial operations caused by the stern government policies such as state or national lockdowns and social distancing norms, constrained investments in new end-user projects, disruptions in global supply chains, limited cross-border trades, declining energy demand, and many other factors hamper the industry outlook.

• In June 2021, the BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2021 reported that the total natural gas production across the globe declined from about 3.98 trillion cubic meters (tcm) in 2019 to slightly over 3.85 tcm owing to the supply-demand gap of hydrocarbons.

However, the continuous efforts by key organizations and healthcare research authorities to effectively introduce large-scale vaccination programs to minimize risk to populations and resume continuous operations is anticipated to somehow counter the disruptions.
