Fugitive Emissions Summit:
This two-day conference June 26-27 will be held at the same time as the Pump
Summit in Houston. An exhibition on both subjects will also be held. Bob
McIlvaine will be speaking at the Pump Summit on Tuesday and will be
interviewing attendees throughout the conference. McIlvaine is covering fugitive
emissions in its valves, pumps and IIoT publications but also in
202I Refinery Decisions.

Predict the Valve Purchases by Each Customer
Valve purchases in 2019 will be $64 billion.
Valve manufacturers should consider a marketing program based around specific
valve forecasts. Here are the reasons
·
Valve purchases in 2019 will be $64 billion.
·
Replacement valves and repairs will exceed $50 billion.
·
Purchases of valves by companies who are already purchasing valves will be $60
billion.
·
This $60 billion market is predictable and the unit forecasts for each purchaser
are obtainable.
·
Forecasts for each purchaser can cost effectively replace sales leads as the
foundation of a market program.
·
A change in marketing policies can be slowly implemented.
·
A progressive program starts with the low hanging fruit.
·
N028 Industrial Valves: World Market
forecasts corporate purchases for the top 200 companies representing 30 percent
of the market.
·
Forecasts for each purchaser can be provided in excel format for uploading to
the CRM system
A webinar evaluating this opportunity was conducted on June 20.

Forecasts for 33,000 Purchasers of Combust, Flow and Treat Products Now
Available
Forecasts for specific combust, flow and treat products and services can be
provided for 33,000 production facilities around the world.
On the average these 33,000 purchasers will buy 60 percent of the total.
Forecasts are available for four types of pumps, sixteen categories of valves,
fifteen types of cartridges, macrofilters, membranes and other types separation
equipment. Forecasts are available for various software, controls, and
instrumentation as well as a number of air pollution products such as dust bags,
nozzles, mist eliminators, various treatment chemicals, and specific fan and
compressor products.
Most combust, flow products are replacements of existing products. Nearly all
products are purchased by previous purchasers.
Therefore future purchases can be accurately predicted. These forecasts
rather than sales leads can be the foundation of the marketing program.

Market Program based on Reliable Forecasts of Purchases by Each Coal Fired
Boiler
Reliable forecasts can be obtained for purchases of combust, flow and treat
(CFT) products and services for each of 12,000 utility coal fired boilers and
for 15,000 industrial boilers as well.
Between 2018 and 2021 the capacity of coal plants worldwide will grow from 2440
GW to 2600 GW. The average boiler size is 0.2 GW. There are 12,200
existing boilers. The average size of new boilers is 0.5 MW. So the number
of boilers will grow by 320 during the next three years Each existing unit and
details on the new boilers are provided in 42EI
Utility Tracking System.
The Total Available Market (TAM) forecasts for specific products e.g. valves,
pumps, cartridges, treatment chemicals, membranes, dust bags etc. can be
purchased at a cost which will make the investment (ROI) very attractive. The
average ROI will be 200 to 1. This is based on a yearly opportunity of $200,000
an increase in market share of 0.5% and a profit margin of 10%. The ROI for the
very large 1000 MW units will be 20,000 to 1 whereas the ROI for the small
industrial 50 MW units will be just 5 to 1.
These forecasts can be provided in excel format for easy integration into the
CRM database.
A program starting with the prospects with the highest ROI can be progressively
expanded to eventually cover all customers.
The forecasts can be purchased in an excel file which will provide:

EVN has multiple generation companies, one of which is Genco 3.
The Viinh Tan 2 site has a total of 1330 MW of coal fired capacity with
precipitators, SCR and seawater scrubbing.
The plant was designed by Shanghai Electric with two sets of turbines and
was erected in 2013. The seawater scrubbing contract was awarded to Alstom in
2011 for both 660 MW units. Alstom
selected valves, pump and other components as part of its proprietary seawater
scrubber system design.
In the above example we provided forecasts for five types of valves but included
both control and on/off. There are
eight valve categories each further segmented into control and on/off.
The 2019 forecast for total valves for the unit is $930,000.
The valve forecast for the plant is $1.86 million.
Forecasts can also be provided for all the EVN plants.
EVN operates 26,000 MW of coal fired, hydro and gas fired plants.
Valve purchases will be $39 million/yr. for all these plants in 2019.
The
N028 Industrial Valves: World Market
includes the forecast of valve purchases by the top 100 customers. Twenty
of these large corporate customers are utilities. For subscribers to the valve
report there would be a deduction in the unit forecasts. (Vinh Tan 2 unit 1
would be one unit).
Other McIlvaine reports provide forecasts for the largest purchasers of pumps,
treatment chemicals, cartridges, catalysts etc.
The cost can be greater if additional analysis is needed as would be the case of
a special valve type. This will
also be the case for products which are only used in some of the plants. For
example dust bags for the boilers are only utilized in about 10% of the plants.
The dust bags used at all coal fired plants for coal handling dust
suppression and pneumatic conveying are small compared to those used to reduce
the dust from the boiler exhausts. So the cost per unit for dust bags would be
higher.
The purchase forecasts for all customers comprise the first step in a complete
business program. There will be a high ROI achieved with direct sales programs
for larger prospects. Custom websites can easily be justified for top prospects.
The Utility Upgrade Tracking System has data on each coal fired unit in each
plant. New project information is
published weekly in this Utility E Alert.
The tracking system also has profiles of the major operators and OEMS.
There is a complete profile on EVN.
The unit forecasting plus the Tracking System is a significant part of the
investment in the direct sales program for the larger units.
Whereas the unit forecasts would increase sales penetration by 0.5% the
direct sales program can be expected to increase sales penetration by 5% or
more. For a customer such as EVN
with valve purchases of $39 million per year, a 5% increase in penetration would
be $2 million/yr and would provide a very high ROI.
The addition of custom websites for a big customer such as EVN could be expected
to increase penetration by 10%/yr or in the EVN case generating additional sales
of $4 million per year. The ROI
would be very high in the first year and even higher in succeeding years as the
cost of forecasting and direct sales support per unit is reduced.
