These types specialized pipe coatings are thick and heavy, thus increasing the transportation costs of pipes.

According to the report, one driver in the market is shale gas boom in North America. Currently, the shale gas revolution in the US and Canada has led to the high production of oil and natural gas. Technological developments in oil and natural gas production, such as a combination of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, coupled with low oil and gas prices, have favored the production of oil and gas in the US and Mexico. The US is also benefitted by the accessibility of domestic energy resources, which reduces the country's dependence on imported energy sources.

Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is stringent government regulations and policies. The stringent regulations imposed by European Commission and federal government agencies are leading manufacturers toward achieving a green environment with minimum or zero harmful emissions.
