For instance, Government of India planned to invest US$ 1.4 trillion on infrastructure till 2023 to have a sustainable development of the country. The Government of India also planned an investment of $ 750 billion for railways infrastructure from the year 2018-2030. Such investments can further influence the market growth of Geotechnical Instrumentation and monitoring in the long run. Furthermore, growing adoption of Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring in renewable energy projects will boost the growth of the market in this region. In January 2021, FUGRO, global expertise in site investigation, and NYK partnered with OYO Corporation to provide comprehensive geotechnical investigation service for offshore wind energy in Japan through the combination of the joint operation of an offshore geotechnical investigation vessel. Such developments can further influence the market growth of Geotechnical Instrumentation and monitoring in the long run.

Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring Market Drivers

Rise in adoption of Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring Techniques in GCC countries

Increasing adoption of GIMT technique in GCC countries such as UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and so on is set to be one of the factors that can drive the market forward during the forecast period 2021-2026, owing to massive infrastructure investment in high rise buildings, bridges and tunnels. Though oil and gas remains the dominating sector in Gulf countries, major shift towards infrastructure and development can be seen in almost every GCC countries. Infrastructure is crucial for country’s development. As per IndustryArc recent study, total value of infrastructure projects in GCC countries had reached to $1.14 trillion in 2019 among which road development constitutes hold the major share in investment.

Increasing infrastructure investment

Increasing infrastructure investment is set to be one of the factors that can drive the market forward during the forecast period 2021-2026. Investment in infrastructure can contribute to economic growth and increase the productivity of different sectors. It is also crucial for regional development. In April 2021, US Government planned to invest USD 2.25 trillion to modernize its infrastructure such as dams, levees, and roads. Such investments can increase the demand for Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring solutions. Similarly, in March 2021, Government of China planned to invest USD 30 billion to ramp up the infrastructure in Tibet such as building new expressways and modernizing the present ones. Such developments can further influence the market growth of Geotechnical Instrumentation and monitoring in the long run. 

Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring Market Challenges

High Installation Cost

High installation cost acts as a major challenge restraining the market growth of Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring Market. The cost of advanced sensors, software, and complex data acquisition systems in Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring system is quite expensive. Furthermore, demand for geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring solutions decreased due to outbreak of covid19. The outbreak of Covid19 disrupted supply chain due to the imposition of lockdown in almost every country to curb the spread of the virus. Travel restrictions have led to the temporarily shut-down or cancellation of construction projects due to less man power as well as lack of operational budget and lack of availability of resources. Owing to the above mentioned factors, demand for Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring will be significantly impacted, thus hampering its market growth.
