Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market by Fiber Type (Single-Mode, Multimode), Operating Principle (OTDR, OFDR), Scattering Process (Rayleigh, Brillouin, and Raman Scattering Effects), Application (Temperature, Acoustic, Strain) - Global Forecast to 2030
The market for distributed fiber optic sensors (DFOS) is projected to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9% from 2024 to 2030, from an estimated USD 1,411.7 million in 2024 to USD 2,630.7 million by 2030. The oil and gas industry is undergoing fast automation and digitization, where highly advanced monitoring technologies are needed to ensure high safety and efficiency during operation. This may lead to a significant growth in the distributed fiber optic sensors (DFOS) market. The need to impose effective structural health monitoring in buildings, bridges, and tunnels, among others, around the world is also fueling the use of DFOS systems, offering real-time, accurate, and distributed sensing capabilities.
“Market for optical time domain reflectometry to hold larger market share during the forecast period.”
The optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR) held a larger share in the market of the distributed fiber optic sensor due to its established reputation in terms of reliability and accuracy in testing and monitoring the fiber optic across various industries, most notably telecommunications, oil & gas, and infrastructure. Its ability to detect faults over long distances, often with minimal signal loss, highly values it for large-scale applications where precision is essential.
“Rayleigh scattering and Bragg grating method segment to grow at the highest CAGR for distributed fiber optic sensor market.”
Rayleigh scattering and Bragg grating method method is expected to grow at the highest CAGR in the distributed fiber optic sensor market. The key factor behind this growth being its capability to measure nearly all physical parameters such as strain and temperature, which drives its value. By leveraging the light scattering principle, it can detect and highlight propagating effects, enabling precise sensing of physical changes. Rayleigh-based sensors are often employed in distributed acoustic sensing systems that are created to monitor vibrations and acoustic waves. Additionally, Fiber Bragg sensors are highly versatile and can perform well in high temperature applications and provide very accurate strain measurements. They offer several advantages, including low loss, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and the capability to multiplex multiple gratings along a single fiber, enabling multi-point sensing.
“North America is expected to hold significant share during the forecast timeline.”
North America is expected to dominate in terms of market share in the distributed fiber optic sensor market during the forecast period. The strong oil and gas industry in the region continues to create significant growth and advancements for the distributed fiber optic sensor technology. According to the US Department of Transportation, the US has the largest oil & gas pipeline network in the world, with more than 2 million km of pipelines. As North America has an extensive network of pipelines transporting oil all across the regions, DFOS systems are widely used for pipeline integrity maintenance, leakage detection, flow assurance provision, and other monitoring functions. Growth in shale gas exploration will further intensify the oil & gas industry, and this should have a positive impact on the market.
