The report categorizes the global satellite M2M connections and services market into four major application segments. They are:

  • Government
  • Transportation
  • Oil and Gas
  • Others

Government

The global satellite M2M services market by government sector is expected to reach USD 1.3 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of more than 5%. The government sector dominates the global satellite M2M services for various military and government applications that involve monitoring and tracking of logistics and location-based tracking of military forces.

Governments employ systems such as Blue Force Tracking (BFT) and movement tracking system (MTS (News - Alert)), which help to provide the location of friendly and hostile military forces. MTS is a system that provides the technology necessary to communicate with tactical wheeled vehicles and other combat support. It plays a vital role in battlefield distribution operations. Satellite M2M connectivity is used in the implementation of these systems.

Transportation

The global satellite M2M services market by transportation sector is expected to reach USD 1.4 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of almost 12%. Satellite M2M services are extensively used in the transportation sector for asset tracking, fleet management and monitoring, and telematics.

According to Rakesh Kumar Panda, a lead analyst t Technavio for M2M and connected devices research, "They help to improve the overall efficiency of supply chains by allowing inventory level monitoring, fleet tracking, event-based monitoring, and inventory condition monitoring." For example, a gold mining company in the remote region of Western Ghana would not be able to track its truck from the mining site to the base location where the company is located due to lack of cellular connectivity. In this scenario, satellite M2M would be the solution to this issue and provide an economical and effective way to monitor the location of the truck.



Oil and gas

The global satellite M2M services market by oil and gas sector is expected to reach USD 1.3 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of approximately 13%. The global satellite M2M services market by oil and gas sector will grow steadily during the forecast period. The market is driven by an increase in the number of oil and gas rigs and the growing dependence of the industry on high-speed broadband services for the safety and security of rigs and pipelines. Most exploration and production (E&P) units are located in remote areas, where terrestrial connectivity is unavailable. Thus, satellite communication remains the only reliable and cost-effective way to obtain high-speed broadband connectivity for these companies.


The oil and gas industry will have to meet a demand-supply match in addition to contending with the increased rates of depletion of producing reservoirs. Satellite M2M communication provides comprehensive high accurate surveying and mapping benefits for the oil and gas industry. In addition, due to easy deployment and installation, most oil and gas companies prefer satellite communications. "VSAT and MSS satellite units are easily deployable and can operate in hostile locations. The smaller size of the VSAT and MSS terminals also makes them highly portable and an ideal solution for emergency situations," says Rakesh.

Others

The global satellite M2M services market by other sectors is expected to reach USD 240 million by 2020, growing at a CAGR of more than 11%. The global satellite M2M services market by the others segment will generate significant revenue during the forecast period.

This segment includes the use of satellite M2M in sectors such as utilities, mining, green energy, and agriculture. In mining, satellite M2M connectivity is used to track and monitor assets from remote locations. Satellite M2M provides reliable and economical means of communication in remote areas. In the utility sector, satellite M2M is widely used in smart grid communications.
