The Report Charts These Developments Over a Ten-Year Time Frame from 2015 and Forecast to 2025

Smart gas metering is gaining momentum, with the expansion of the Chinese natural gas market, European rollouts accelerating and the US continuing to convert to AMR and AMI metering.

Nationwide stocks of diaphragm meters are being converted by replacements with smart meters, or with the addition of communication modules to the existing well-tested diaphragm and rotary meters.

The report charts these developments over a ten-year time frame from 2015 and forecast to 2025.

The market is split by residential, standard and AMR/AMI, PPM, communication modules, C&I and grid meters and analysed by country.

Global gas meter demand is forecast in units and value, totals of all meters and smart meters, from the base year 2015 to 2025 in the countries with piped gas networks and over 600,000 gas customers.

Analysis of sales of gas meters for 43 countries, by meter type - Basic Residential, AMR/ AMI, Prepayment, Communications Modules, C&I - units, value, and average selling price, from 2019 to 2025. Tables of the global total, regional totals and countries.

The major meter technologies are described with total market shares; diaphragm, rotary, turbine, orifice and ultrasonic, plus outline of Coriolis, vortex and MEMS meters.

The major customers for gas meters, the gas transmission and distribution utilities, are outlined in each of the 43 countries profiled, together with their structure.

The number of housing units, residential and commercial gas customers with piped gas are charted for each profiled country, from 1900 to 2020. At the city gate station, gas pressure is high, grid and bulk meters need to be robust and highly accurate. Commercial & Industrial (C&I) meters contributed only 1% of meter sales in units in 2019, but this important segment of high value meters was worth $1 billion.

Global market shares are accompanied by profiles of the meter manufacturers, including those with small shares in numbers of meters but leading positions in high end meters for high-pressure measurement - Elster, Itron, Landis+Gyr, Dresser, Diehl, Apator, Sagemcom, Sensus, Dongfa Group, Holley, Emerson.

Fundamental changes in the demand cycle for meters are taking place in the residential segment. Meter vendors need to understand the new trends to plan their footprint and to avoid mismatch, over-capacity and pressure on profits. Historically the demand for gas meters followed a stable long-term path, driven by the increase of gas penetration, first for city coal gas and then for natural gas. The country-wide deployments of smart meters now starting, involve replacing the entire stock of residential meters with 20-year lives, in a short period of perhaps 5 years. This has never happened before and it means that there will be peaks of replacement and troughs of low demand.

The NGV and Autogas segment is reviewed, a small but growing segment for gas meters, with numbers and metering technology.

Gas metering cannot be fully understood in isolation. It is not all piped natural gas. Marketers need to understand the gas supply industry, how it has developed and where it will go in the future. The industry is described, from its start with local town gas to the international natural gas industry, today piped and LNG. There are still other pockets of gas; town gas, LPG both piped and in cylinders and local tanks of natural gas.

Executive Summary

Chapter Summaries:

Chapter 1 - THE GAS METERING LANDSCAPE IN 2020

Globally, 34% of gas is consumed by the residential/commercial sector, 39% by industry and 29% by power plants. Analysis of gas customers in 71 countries, their number, consumption of meters in units and value. 

Chapter 2 - WORLD DEMAND FOR GAS METERS FROM 2019 TO 2025

Global demand analysed by meter type. Meter technology shares. 

Chapter 3 - DEMAND FOR SMART GAS METERS

Global demand for smart gas meters and communications modules by country. 

Chapter 4 - LONG-TERM DEMAND TREND FOR GAS METERS

Globally, 34% of gas is consumed by the residential/commercial sector, 39% by industry and 29% by power plants. Until the last decade demand followed regular trends established over a century. It had its local fluctuations but the overall trend for each country was regular. The sudden rollouts of smart meters will have dramatic impacts on demand trends and will change them beyond recognition. The changes in the demand cycle are identified where applicable for each country. 

Chapter 5 - GAS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM 

The transmission and distribution of gas involve huge investment and the gas is regulated, compressed and metered at pressures from 1,500 psi in long distance transmission to under 3 psi in domestic households. The meters at the high pressure end are few in number but well-engineered and costly. The system is mapped and the different stages identified. 

Chapter 6 - METER TYPES FROM 1843 TO THE FUTURE

Overview of the development of metering from the earliest days and each technology. 

Chapter 7 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN EUROPE

Chapters 7 to 14 contain regional and country sections, with market reviews with "A summary of the gas supply industry, distribution and consumers" Gas meters sales in the base year 2019 with forecasts from 2020 to 2025 in numbers of units, $ sales and average selling price per meter - for Residential, AMR, AMI, PPM, Commercial and Industrial, and Smart Meters ¨ Status and commentary on Ultrasonic Meters and Smart Metering ¨ Gas meter vendors Expanded market commentary for the United States, Japan, China and India. 

Chapter 8 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN CIS 

Chapter 9 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN THE MIDDLE EAST AFRICA 

Chapter 10 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN AST AFRICA 

Chapter 11 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN ASIA PACIFIC 

Chapter 12 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN NORTH AMERICA 

Chapter 13 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN SOUTH AMERICA 

Chapter 14 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN CENTRAL AMERICA 

Chapter 15 - COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS, COMPANY PROFILES AND MARKET SHARES

The three historical global metering groups, Elster, Itron and Landis+Gyr are still the market leaders in the gas meter market, with 61% of the global market in value. Their large share in the value of the market is due to their dominance of the high end C&I sector, providing metering solutions for the high pressure grid and large industry. ¨ Global market shares are accompanied with profiles of the meter manufacturers, including those with small shares in numbers of meters but leading positions in high end meters for high pressure measurement - Elster, Itron, Landis+Gyr, Dresser, Diehl, Apator, Sagemcom, Sensus, Dongfa Group, Holley, Emerson. 

Chapter 16 - NGV and AUTOGAS METERING

The metering of gas dispensed to CNG and Autogas powered vehicles is a small segment of the metering market. Each filling station has two kinds of a gas meter; a master meter which measures the gas arriving at the station, and individual meters on the pumps measuring the gas supplied to vehicles. The technology is outlined and the main meter products listed. 

Chapter 17 - THE ORIGINS OF THE GLOBAL GAS INDUSTRY

An overview of the gas industry, from its start with local manufactured coal gas plants to its conversion and huge expansion with transmission pipelines into an international industry. Its competitive role versus electricity. 

Chapter 18 - GAS SOURCES, TYPES AND DELIVERY

A review of gas. Gas comes in many forms, is made from various feedstocks and is delivered in different ways. Most gas comes from three hydrocarbons; natural gas, liquid petroleum gas and coal. There are four major categories of gas.
