Composite LNG Hose - Global Industry Market Analysis Report 2020-2031

LNG composite hose is a flexible pipe specially designed for the transmission of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and other cryogenic liquefied gases (such as liquid methane and liquid nitrogen). It can usually operate safely at extremely low temperatures (such as -196°C to -200°C) while maintaining good flexibility and pressure resistance. Its structure is spirally wound with multiple layers of thermoplastic film and fabric (such as polypropylene or polytetrafluoroethylene liner), and supported by inner and outer metal spiral wires (such as 316 stainless steel or galvanized steel). This design allows the hose to withstand high pressure and adapt to bending and movement in dynamic environments. It is widely used in ship-to-ship transmission, ship-to-shore transmission, and LNG bunkering.

LNG composite hose is favored by the industry for its lightness and flexibility. Compared with traditional stainless steel hoses, it is about 30% to 40% lighter, easy to operate and install, and can effectively cope with ship movement and vibration, especially in offshore operations. For example, Gutteling LNG White STS hose has been proven to perform well in ship-to-ship transfers and complies with international standards such as EN 1474-II and IMO IGC. However, its limitations are that long-term exposure to extreme conditions may cause material fatigue and the initial purchase cost is high, although its durability may offset some of the costs in long-term use.

In terms of the market, the demand for LNG composite hoses has risen rapidly with the growth of global LNG trade. The Asia-Pacific region, especially China, has become a major market due to increased LNG imports and the construction of bunkering infrastructure, while Europe and North America have maintained steady growth due to technological innovation and offshore operation needs.

In terms of prospects, the development of LNG composite hoses will benefit from the popularity of LNG as a clean energy, especially in the context of decarbonization of the shipping industry. However, the challenges faced by the industry include volatile raw material prices, strict certification requirements, and potential competitive alternatives (such as new low-temperature alloy pipes). Nevertheless, with technological advances and standardization, LNG composite hoses are expected to play a more important role in the global energy transition, especially in small and medium-sized LNG bunkering and flexible transmission scenarios.
