Pigging Valves Market Report 2026

The pigging valves market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.26 billion in 2025 to $5.77 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of oil and gas pipeline networks, increasing demand for pipeline cleaning solutions, growth in refining and petrochemical infrastructure, reliance on manual pigging systems, regulatory focus on pipeline safety.

The pigging valves market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.24 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in pipeline inspection technologies, growth of cross-border pipeline projects, rising adoption of automated maintenance solutions, focus on reducing pipeline downtime, tightening environmental and safety regulations. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of automated pigging valves, growing focus on pipeline integrity management, rising demand for inline inspection systems, shift toward advanced valve monitoring technologies, increasing investments in pipeline maintenance.

The growth in oil and gas exploration activities is expected to drive the expansion of the pigging valve market in the coming years. Oil and gas exploration activities involve processes used to extract oil and gas from the ground. As these exploration efforts increase, additional pipelines are constructed to transport the extracted oil and gas. Pigging valves are used to connect these pipelines in preparation for integration. For example, in June 2025, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reported that domestic crude oil accounted for about 27% of total U.S. energy production in 2024, as the United States remains the world’s leading crude oil producer. U.S. crude oil production reached a record 13.2 million barrels per day in 2024, a 2% increase over the previous record set in 2023. Consequently, the growth in oil and gas exploration activities is fueling the pigging valve market.

Major companies in the pigging valve sector are concentrating on launching new products, such as Pig Ball Valve Systems, to satisfy consumer demand. A Pig Ball Valve System is a specialized valve designed for pipeline pigging operations, commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, and wastewater management. For example, in June 2024, BATU Valve, an innovator in the oil and gas sector based in Turkey, introduced Pig Ball Valve Systems. These systems provide a compact and efficient alternative, enhancing operational efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. As the industry places greater emphasis on sustainability, these advanced technologies are poised to revolutionize pipeline maintenance practices. The oil and gas sector is actively seeking innovative pipeline maintenance solutions that reconcile energy requirements with environmental awareness. Although traditional pigging systems are effective, they encounter challenges related to extensive infrastructure and environmental issues.

In June 2024, AVOVE Limited, a UK-based infrastructure services and engineering company, partnered with iNPIPE PRODUCTS to introduce advanced smart pig technology for the water sector. Through this collaboration, AVOVE and iNPIPE PRODUCTS aim to improve pipeline maintenance and cleaning efficiency in large-scale water pipelines, enabling more reliable and cost-effective water infrastructure management. International Pipeline Products Limited, based in the UK, manufactures valves and equipment for pipeline pigging applications.
