Middle East and Africa Tunnel Sensor Market

Market Introduction

Tunnel sensors have a very important role in any tunnel safety system by sensing and monitoring different parameters such as lighting, ventilation, visibility and air quality. Proper analysis of these constants helps in ensuring high operational efficiency, preventing tunnel accident/fatalities, and reducing costs for tunnel construction and management companies. Growth in demand for tunnel sensors in applications such as air quality monitoring for ventilation control and smoke detection has been seen at a fast pace. Also, the everyday rising levels of environmental pollution concerns and people safety concerns are further driving the demand for these sensors to measure concentration of gases such as Nitric Oxide (NO) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) in tunnel environments. Various technologies such as ultrasound and electrochemical are being used in air flow and air quality sensors. Acceptance of tunnel sensors in road and railway tunnels is expected to rise leading to various advantages offered by these sensors. Cost savings, high accuracy, enhanced productivity, and environmental benefits are some of the common advantages of these sensors. The rising levels of industrialization and urbanization in developing countries due to population growth coupled with tunnel infrastructure up-gradation and growing tunnel safety regulations in developed regions are some of the key factors that are expected to boost the MEA of tunnel sensor market over the forecast period of 2020 to 2027. In addition to this, growing acceptance of tunnel automation and monitoring solutions is fueling the market demand of tunnel sensors in MEA. Furthermore the ongoing COVID-19 is having a very adverse impact on MEA region. Among MEA countries, South Africa has the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases (~589,900) and deaths (~12,000), which impacted the economic and industrial growth of South Africa in a substantial manner. Other major countries that are facing the economic impact of COVID-19 outbreak include Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and Kuwait. The region comprises of many growing economies such as UAE among others, which are prospective markets for tunnel sensor providers, owing to the huge scope for construction and infrastructure industry growth. The countries like Dubai are at the forefront of technology adoption in various industries including logistics and transportation in this region. The demand for tunnel automation and monitoring solutions in Dubai is quite high, and COVID-19 outbreak may hinder the demand in coming quarters due to decline in new infrastructure projects and activities. The COVID-19 pandemic would have significant effects on major economies, but the MEA region is anticipated to be especially impacted as there is already pressure on economy of various oil based countries due to falling oil prices. In addition to this, the factory lockdowns, business shutdowns and travel bans are further aggravating the economic problems of the countries present in the MEA region. Hence, the estimated decline in MEA’s economic condition and impact of COVID-19 on growth of various industries in the region is expected to negatively impact the demand of tunnel sensors in 2020 and 2021.
