By Testing MethodUltrasonic Testing segment generated the highest revenue in 2020.
The key factor that drives growth of the nondestructive testing equipment market share includes the need to extend longevity of machines. Costs and challenges involved in building new infrastructure have encouraged end-user industries to extend operational life of their existing infrastructure. In addition, refineries in Latin America increase their capacity utilization, owing to deficiency of refined oil in the global market. Scarcity of refined oil is due to the restrictions imposed by the U.S. on Iran. Operating the machines at advanced capacities might result in breakdowns. Inspection and maintenance to safeguard these aging assets and run them at high capacities create huge demand for nondestructive testing machine in the region. Aging pipeline infrastructure requires various inspection and integrity equipment/services to ensure safety. Thus, the demand for inspection of aging assets drives the nondestructive testing equipment market growth. It is expected that the impact of this driver would remain high throughout the nondestructive testing equipment market forecast period.
The nondestructive testing equipment market growth is supplemented by the increase in stringent safety government regulations across different regions, due to increase in incidences of infrastructural failures, rise in need for extending the life of obsolete infrastructure, surge in maintenance optimization by various industries for efficient operations, and rise in quality/safety assurance. However, high cost of equipment and lack of skilled technicians hinder the nondestructive testing equipment market share. Increase in usage of advanced materials is expected to provide lucrative nondestructive testing equipment market opportunity.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis:
The ongoing spread of COVID-19 has become one of the biggest threats to the global economy and is causing widespread concerns and economic hardship for consumers, businesses, and communities across the globe. The “new normal” that includes social distancing and working from home has created challenges with daily activities, regular work, needs, and supplies, causing delayed initiatives and missed opportunities.
The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the society and overall economy across the global. The impact of this outbreak is growing day-by-day as well as affecting the supply chain. It is creating uncertainty in the stock market, falling business confidence, massive slowing of supply chain, and increasing panic among the customer segments. European countries under lockdowns suffered a major loss of business and revenue due to shutdown of manufacturing units. The operations of the production and manufacturing industries have been heavily impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 disease thereby, hampering growth of the nondestructive testing equipment market outlook in 2020.
The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted the global automotive and industrial sector , owing to halt in the production facilities ,which, in turn, had significant impact on the economy. Large-scale manufacturing interruption across Latin America and disruption in Chinese parts export hinder the nondestructive testing equipment market growth.
The outbreak of COVID-19 declined the demand for non destructive testing machine in 2020 and was estimated to witness slow growth at the end of 2021. Implementation of partial or complete lockdown across various countries across the globe is the major reason for this decline in the growth rate. As the industries were temporarily shut, it reduced the maintenance need from various industries. However, COVID-19 pandemic had the unaltered effect on demand for power plants and oil & gas refineries.
TOP IMPACTING FACTORS
The notable factors positively impacting the nondestructive testing equipment market include increase in oil & gas and power generation projects, stringent safety government regulations, maintenance optimization by various industries to ensure safety and efficient performance of the machines, and rise in need for extending the life of obsolete infrastructure. However, lack of skilled and qualified labor to handle the NDT equipment hampers the nondestructive testing equipment market growth. Conversely, increase in use of advance NDT equipment by various industry verticals are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the market growth in future.
Increase in oil & gas and power generation projects
Increase in oil & gas and power generation projects, particularly in the nuclear energy sector in Asia-Pacific, drives the NDT equipment market significantly, as NDT inspection plays a vital role in the functioning of these two industries. Latin American oil production is dominated by Brazil, Mexico, and Venezuela. These countries are responsible for about 75% of the region's total output and are also giants on the international stage, ranking as the world's 10th, 11th, and 12th biggest oil producers, respectively.
Lack of skilled and qualified professionals
Lack of skilled technicians is the major restraint for the nondestructive testing equipment market. Most technicians required for the inspection process are only certified and do not possess the required essential skills to perform quality inspection at satisfactory levels. In addition, most training institutes train technicians on outdated equipment that is phased out of the market as they do not have latest equipment for training. This is a major hindrance to the growth of the nondestructive testing equipment market, since it restricts the adoption of advanced products and technologies.
Increase in use of advanced NDT equipment
Advancement in technology acts as an opportunity in the nondestructive testing equipment market as it offers more reliable and accurate inspection data. Advanced technologies in this equipment include eddy current array and phased array ultrasonic, which provide superior ways of presenting data and generate inspection reports of advanced value to consumers
