DCS control system industry on the middle and downstream

The upstream industry for DCS control systems covers a range of areas specializing in the provision of related components and services, including electronic components, software, communications equipment, mechanical and structural design, as well as the provision of system integration, installation and commissioning and maintenance training services. In downstream applications, DCS systems are widely used in 8290-191 petrochemical, power, metallurgy, paper, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and environmental protection and other key industrial fields. In these areas, the DCS system plays a crucial role in monitoring and controlling key parameters of the production process, such as temperature, pressure, humidity, etc., to ensure product quality, improve production efficiency, ensure plant safety and comply with environmental standards.

China’s DCS control system industry market size and growth rate

At present, the core application industry of China’s DCS control system (distributed control system) mainly includes the three major fields of chemical industry, electric power and petroleum. According to statistics, as of 2021, the application scale of DCS system in the chemical industry has reached 4.41 billion yuan, accounting for 37.24% of the entire market, ranking first; Followed by the power industry, its DCS market size of 2.628 billion yuan, accounting for 23.63%; The scale of the use of DCS in the oil industry should not be underestimated, with a total amount of 2.156 billion yuan, accounting for 19.43% of the market share. It can be seen that these three pillar industries rely heavily on DCS control systems and play an important role in their respective fields.

8290-191

At present, in China’s DCS (distributed control system) market, the local brand camp, represented by the control technology and Hollysys, occupies a pivotal position. At the same time, the competitive forces from overseas mainly come from European and American companies and Japanese companies, such as Emerson, ABB, Siemens and Honeywell, and the Japanese representative Yokogawa Electric. In terms of 8290-191 subdivision, the DCS supply force of the power industry is mainly around Emerson, Hollysys, ABB and Siemens. The competitive landscape of the chemical industry is dominated by Sinochem, Hollysys, Yokogawa Electric and Honeywell. In the petrochemical sector, Sinotech, Emerson, Honeywell and Yokogawa Electric are leading the way. In recent years, thanks to technological progress, the strong support of national policies and the timely adjustment of enterprise development strategies, the market share of local brands has shown a significant upward trend. Since 2016, the market share of local DCS brands has steadily climbed from 46.35% to 55.72% in 2021, showing that local enterprises continue to expand their strength in international competition and gradually improve market competitiveness.

According to Zhiyan Zhan statistics show that in 2018, China’s DCS control system industry market size of 9.538 billion yuan, in 2023, China’s DCS control system industry market size of 13.116 billion yuan, an increase of 8.83%. 2018-2023 China DCS control system industry market size is as follows:
