Floating roof tank holds the majority share of the oil storage market owing to its ability to minimize evaporation loss to 80% by trapping the vapor from low flash point products over other alternates. Floating roof tanks are economical to construct and are preferred with the minimum acceptable equipment for storing liquid. In addition, availability of a wide array of floating decks as per requirement or factors including full liquid contact, load-carrying capacity, roof stability, or pontoon arrangement further widen the scope for the buyer to choose the floating type of tank for oil and related product storage. The floating tank is suitable to store large quantity of low and medium flash point products. Growing measures to minimize the adverse environmental impact along with escalating demand for volatile hydrocarbon will boost the North America oil storage market development.
 

Spherical tank, in 2021, accounted for 11.8% of global commercial oil storage market share. It is used to store highly pressured or extremely low flash point fluid including oxygen, hydrocarbon, LPG and hexane. The even distribution of stresses on the sphere's surfaces, both internally and externally does not create any weak point during the product in operation, making it stronger than its counter parts. In addition, the product is made with less pieces of material that has fewer welded connection joints, that increases their strength. Rising concern to prevent the risk of fire owing to unpredictable leakage of highly flammable products will positively influence North America oil storage market trends.
 

The crude oil commercial storage facility is predicted to showcase significant growth owing to ongoing investments toward oil and gas projects along with steady petroleum distillates demand. The increased level of oil inventory has adversely impacted the crude oil prices. Hence, to gain the benefits of the situation i.e., storing large quantity of crude oil at low crude oil prices, numerous storage facilities have been developed by both public and private players.
 

The increased in global energy consumption has raised the demand for middle distillates product. Therefore, to cater the demand of refined product several downstream companies are developing various storage facilities specific to the manufacturing sector. The increased in capital inflow toward the construction of additional storage facility will provide growth to oil storage market. However, in the coming future the growing demand for electronic vehicles might affect the demand elasticity of middle distillates.
 

The exponential & continual exploration and production activities of conventional & unconventional energy sources across the North American countries including the U.S. and Canada has created an oil glut and significantly uplift the demand for oil storage. U.S. being the highest collector in terms of strategic reserves across the globe has immensely contributed to the overall North America oil storage market.
 

The oil storage market in Canada has been influenced by a wide array of factors, including changes in oil production levels, fluctuations in oil prices, and regulatory changes. One of the key trends in recent years has been the expansion of oil storage capacity in Western Canada, particularly in Alberta, in response to growing production levels from the oil sands. This has led to a surplus of oil storage capacity in the region, which has put downward pressure on storage prices, thus impacting the business landscape.
 

The Mexico oil storage industry is estimated to observe a significant growth in 2032 owing to the growing population and expanding economy have led to an increase in demand for petroleum products, including gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. In addition, accelerating private investments across the nation’s oil and gas sector, along with recent developments in the O&G industry, including commencement of new refinery projects, increasing condensate production, and offshore oil discoveries will positively influence the business dynamics.
