The Asia Pacific flare gas ultrasonic flowmeters market size was valued at US$ 6.85 million in 2022 and is projected to reach US$ 8.92 million by 2028; it is expected to record a CAGR of 4.5% from 2022 to 2028.

Many industries previously used mechanical flow meter technologies, which could result in continuous maintenance and high failure risk. To maintain the accuracy with minimal maintenance and reduce the failure risk, industries started to use ultrasonic flowmeters to measure the fluid where ultrasonic flow metering technologies came into existence. In flare gas ultrasonic flowmeters, the introduction of a portable clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter is one of the recently adopted technologies, which is considered as a future trend in the APAC flare gas ultrasonic flowmeters market.

A portable clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeter is a advanced technology that produces more than five times strong signals than a traditional ultrasonic transducer. The clamp-on transducers produce clean signals with less background noise. It generates accurate coded signals that help for the optimum performance of the flare gas system. Panametrics CTF878 and the Panametrics GC868 are ultrasonic clamp-on gas flowmeters provided by Panametrics. These flowmeters can measure any flow of gases such as oxygen, hydrogen, natural gas, steam, nitrogen, and more. It can calculate mass flow with the help of a transmitter connected to the analog input.

Portable meters are used to check temporary spots and verify the measurements and accuracy of other meters. The technologically advanced clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters measure the transit times in gases even where signal-to-noise ratios are extremely low. Thus, advancements in ultrasonic metering technologies would fuel Asia Pacific flare gas ultrasonic flowmeters market growth during the forecast period.

Based on end user, the chemicals & petrochemicals segment held a larger share of the Asia Pacific flare gas ultrasonic flowmeters market in 2021. A flare gas ultrasonic flowmeter is widely used in the production of petroleum liquids such as diesel, petrol, petrochemicals, liquid chemicals, and other noncorrosive petroleum oil/liquid to measure the gas flare. These meters help to reduce risks such as hazardous gas leaks and explosions. It provides accurate and real-time information to the operator regarding the temperature and pressure of the flare gas. Through this critical information, the operator intervenes to gain optimal combustion and reduce emissions. The information and diagnosis provided by flowmeters improve the overall efficiency of the production of chemical and petrochemical. According to Offshore Technology, Asia Pacific registered a growth of 65% for petrochemical contracts in Q2 2022 compared to Q1 2022, and China accounted for 19 contracts, which is almost 50% of the total contracts. The petrochemicals sector is growing in APAC owing to rising globalization and urbanization. Moreover, increasing petrochemical contracts propel the need for flare gas ultrasonic flowmeters to improve efficiency.
