Flow Research previously published this study in 2002. The second edition builds on and expands on this earlier edition. We have updated and expanded our segmentation, and included new profiles for the many PD flowmeter companies.

One goal of the study was to determine the size of the worldwide positive displacement flowmeter market in dollars and units.  In addition, forecasts through 2015 are included. 

The study has achieved multiple goals:

• To determine the worldwide market size for positive displacement flowmeters in 2010, and to provide this data for individual geographic regions

• To determine worldwide market shares for positive displacement flowmeters in 2010, and to provide this data for individual geographic regions

• To forecast market growth through 2015 for all types of positive displacement flowmeters through 2015  

• To identify the industries and applications where positive displacement flowmeters are used

• To identify market growth sectors

• To provide a product analysis for the main companies selling into the positive displacement flowmeter market

• To determine average selling prices for PD  flowmeters by region and by fluid type

• To provide strategies to manufacturers for selling into the positive displacement flowmeter market

• To provide company profiles of the main suppliers into the positive displacement flowmeter market

• To provide product shipment data by distribution channel and customer type

The study is divided into the following regions:

• North America

• Europe (including Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union)

• Japan

• China

• Asia without Japan/China

• Rest of World

The following is a partial list of the segmentation included in this study:

• Application type (water, industrial and municipal gas, oil, industrial liquids)

• Technology type 

• Line sizes (less than 2 inches to over 8 inches)

• Industries

• Distribution channels

• Customer types

The following are the types of PD flowmeters included in the study:

• Oval Gear

• Rotary

• Helical Gear

• Nutating Disc

• Piston

• Diaphragm

• Other

The worldwide positive displacment flowmeter market has undergone many changes since our last study was published in 2002. The positive displacement market is under intense pressure from new-technology flowmeters such as Coriolis and magnetic. We have determined the extent of these changes, and found out the current state of the positive displacement flowmeter market.

This study should be of special interest to any manufacturer of turbine flowmeters, and to users and specifiers of positive displacement flowmeters.
