Plunger Pump Market Report 2026

The plunger pump market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $3.12 billion in 2025 to $3.22 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in oil and gas exploration activities, expansion of industrial fluid processing, rising demand for high pressure cleaning systems, increased use of pumps in chemical processing, development of water treatment infrastructure.

The plunger pump market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.66 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of water and wastewater treatment facilities, rising demand for energy efficient pumping solutions, growth in pharmaceutical manufacturing, increasing investment in industrial automation, demand for high pressure pumps in hydrogen and renewable energy projects. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for high pressure fluid handling solutions, rising adoption of precision pumps in industrial processes, growing use of corrosion resistant pump materials, expansion of multi plunger configurations for continuous operations, increasing focus on pump reliability in critical applications.

The growth of the oil and gas industry is expected to drive the plunger pump market going forward. The oil and gas sector encompasses the exploration, extraction, refining, distribution, and utilization of petroleum and natural gas resources. This growth is fueled by increasing energy demand, advancements in extraction technologies, and expanded exploration activities across various regions. Plunger pumps support the industry by delivering high-pressure fluids for critical applications such as well stimulation, chemical injection, and pipeline transport, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and durability in harsh operating conditions. For example, in January 2023, according to the Energy Information Administration, a US-based government agency, U.S. crude oil production was expected to average 12.4 million barrels per day in 2023, increasing to 12.8 million barrels per day in 2024. Additionally, in September 2022, U.S. natural gas consumption was projected to rise by 3.6 billion cubic feet per day from 2021, reaching a record-high annual average of 86.6 Bcf/d. Therefore, the expansion of the oil and gas industry is fueling the growth of the plunger pump market.

Major companies in the plunger pump market are focusing on developing advanced high-pressure, multi-purpose pumping solutions to enhance fluid-handling precision, expand application capabilities, and improve performance across industrial and research settings. High-pressure multi-purpose pumping integrates robust mechanical designs with adaptable configurations to ensure accurate and stable liquid delivery under demanding conditions, including high viscosity, elevated temperatures, or supercritical states. For instance, in May 2024, Plasteco Corporation, a Japan-based fluid-equipment manufacturer, launched the L.TEX 9800 Series, its next-generation high-performance plunger pump lineup capable of delivering pressures up to 40 MPa with flow-rate options ranging from 10 mL/min to 1000 mL/min. Designed to support both laboratory-scale dosing and high-volume industrial processes, the system features customizable fluid-compatibility options, optional control units, and easy-maintenance components to enhance durability, precision, and overall operational flexibility.

In June 2024, Interpump Group S.p.A., an Italy-based high-pressure pump company, acquired Alfa Valvole, a manufacturer of pumps and valves. The terms of the deal were not disclosed. This acquisition allows Interpump Group to expand its product range to include precision dosing pumps and valves, strengthening its portfolio for fluid control applications across various industries.
