ADI Analytics conducted an integrated assessment of NGL production, pipeline infrastructure, and gas processing capacity to support strategic planning for an oil and gas producer. The client An independent oil and gas production company evaluating midstream and processing opportunities across key U.S. shale plays. The situation The client sought to understand NGL production trends, infrastructure […]

ADI executed a primary research program involving 15 in-depth interviews with experts at global operators like Saudi Aramco, Shell, and Chevron to assess technology recognition in the gas processing sector. The work benchmarked technologies including GSP, RSV, and SCORE to understand operator prioritization. Findings surfaced a critical disconnect between the technology providers and operators, as […]

ADI conducted detailed market research for a non-destructive testing (NDT) technology, analyzing its application in difficult-to-pig subsea flowlines. The work evaluated the competitive landscape between established tools like pulsed eddy current and startups using magnetometry tomographic methods. Global asset growth rates and ROV inspection speeds were modeled to estimate a market size and develop an […]

ADI assessed the market value of natural gas and hydrogen storage assets near the U.S. Gulf Coast through a detailed analysis of regional pipeline interconnects and seasonal spreads. The work evaluated the premium commanded by high-deliverability salt caverns and the technical constraints of repurposing infrastructure for hydrogen. The client Natural gas midstream operator The situation […]

This study investigated value-creation levers for midstream asset optimization in U.S. shale basins. ADI modeled the transition from keep-whole to fee-based contracts, their relative share, and analyzed how these structures shift operator focus toward operational efficiency and opex optimization. The research emphasized the risk of contract cliffs and the role of asset optimization software in […]

To quantify addressable opportunities for midstream services, ADI modeled capital and operational expenditures across North American gathering, transportation, distribution and storage assets. The study evaluated infrastructure constraints in the Permian and Appalachian basins, specifically addressing how rising maintenance needs on aging infrastructure offset cyclical volatility in new project FIDs. Proprietary spend curves were applied to […]

ADI conducted an in-depth evaluation of non-destructive testing (NDT) opportunities across a global pipeline network. The research integrated granular construction outlooks for gas transmission lines with emerging requirements in CCUS and nuclear power cooling systems to determine service demand over a 10-year period. Analysis prioritized regions such as the Asia Pacific and North America where […]

ADI executed a voice-of-customer study involving 50 interviews to benchmark a leading modular gas processing product line against global competitors. The research mapped regional buyer preferences. Findings defined the commercial trade-offs between “off-the-shelf” repeatability and the custom engineering requirements typical of hazardous overseas environments. The client Global modular plant manufacturer The situation A recent acquisition […]

ADI conducted a comprehensive assessment of the addressable market for NGL fractionation capacity over a 10-year period. The research analyzed distinct trends in demand regions like Mont Belvieu, Appalachia, and the Permian. This study surfaced the technical trade-offs between standardization and speed-to-market, and the competitive advantage of various EPC firms. The client Global equipment and […]

This assessment utilized a structured modeling framework to size the total addressable market for recompression units across U.S. pipeline infrastructure. ADI evaluated the interplay between aging assets, specifically those over 20 years old, and intensifying regulatory mandates like the PIPES Act of 2020 and the Gas Mega Rule. The study surfaced critical operational trade-offs between […]

ADI investigated the structural shift in midstream commercial transactions, specifically the migration from keep-whole to fee-based contractual frameworks. The project involved a deep dive into SEC filings and senior executive interviews to benchmark average remaining contract lives and minimum volume commitments (MVCs) across 18 major operators. Findings surfaced the inherent commodity price risks remaining in […]
