Market Overview

Massive Capital Expenditure Projects within the Petrochemicals Industry to Spur Uptake of Valves and Actuators in South Africa

Despite the impacts of the global financial crisis, including expenditure tightening, a few leading end-user companies within the petrochemicals industry in South Africa are continuing to implement planned capital expenditure projects with the objective of boosting production capacity to match the anticipated increase in demand for chemicals and petrochemicals. Such sizeable capital expenditure projects are set to contribute to a steady growth in demand for valves and actuators in South Africa from 2010 to 2015.

"Leading chemicals and petrochemicals companies such as SASOL and PetroSA are going forward with their capital expenditure programmes to increase production capacity, despite the global financial crisis," notes research analyst, James Fungai Maposa. "Implementation of these projects is expected to contribute to a higher demand for valve and actuator products within the sector." In addition to the construction of new plants and refineries, challenges such as energy shortages and stricter environmental concerns are other factors that have prompted end users within the sector to upgrade their existing facilities to reduce energy consumption and conserve the environment. Part of the upgrade activity will include the replacing of obsolete valves and actuators with automation compatible valve and actuator products. The plant upgrades are, therefore, expected to contribute to revenue growth of the valves and actuators market within the petrochemicals industry until 2015.
