Companies involved in LNG infrastructure are finding themselves with stricter rules on methane leaks,  leading them to invest in durable, leak-proof cryogenic valves so the LNG meets safety and efficiency standards.
 

As industries replace their cryogenic systems in compliance with these environmental regulations, demand is increasing for energy-efficient cryogenic valves with intelligent monitoring features. This trend towards sustainable cryogenic technology demonstrates that environmental regulations necessitate compliance while also serving as a good incentive for innovation in the market.
 

U.S. Cryogenic Valve Market Analysis

Based on valve type, the market is segmented as LNG and Cryogenic. In 2024, the LNG segment generated a revenue of USD 143.5 million and is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 6.1% during 2025 to 2034.
 

• Growth in the U.S. cryogenic valve industry is expected to be primarily driven by the LNG segment. The growth of the natural gas sector is attributable to the increasing demand for natural gas as a cleaner energy source, increasing liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports, and robust investments in infrastructure. Cryogenic valves are typically used for LNG due to the low temperatures (-260°F/-162°C) at which the gas must be kept for safe and efficient flow control in the storage, transportation, and processing stages. The demand for various cryogenic valves such as ball, gate, globe, and check valves for LNG applications is surging as the U.S. enhances its LNG production and export facilities. With stacked LNG exports last year at 10.6 billion cubic feet per day, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the demand for these valves is in high demand.
   
• Only transition from coal and oil to LNG in power generation, industrial, and transportation use is also driving up demand for cryogenic valves as they are used in pipelines, liquefaction plants, regasification terminals, and LNG bunkering facilities. In addition, stricter environmental regulations that encourage the use of low-emission fuels have stimulated the adoption of LNG. Cryogenic valves operate in both offshore and land-based applications — including floating LNG (FLNG), small-scale LNG distribution, and LNG-powered vessels — which all require cryogenic valves and are, therefore, poised for increased investment. LNG infrastructure investments have increased by more than 15% per annum in recent years, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Automated and smart cryogenic valve innovations are enhancing the efficiency and safety of LNG valves, positioning them as a vital contributor to market growth.
   

Based on function, the U.S. cryogenic valve market is segmented into manual and Pneumatic/electric Control. In 2024, the manual segment accounted for over 65% revenue share Rand is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 6.6% till 2034.
 

• Manual cryogenic valves are the most used in the U.S. market because they are reliable, affordable, and easy to operate in industries like LNG, industrial gas, and aerospace. These valves allow accurate control of gas flow without needing electricity, making them ideal for extremely cold environments where automated systems may fail.
   
• As per the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the United States exported over 10 billion cubic feet per day of LNG in 2023, with many facilities relying on manual cryogenic valves due to their simple design, low maintenance needs, and durability. These valves are also preferred for safety reasons when handling liquefied gases like LNG, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Operators can directly control these valves during emergencies or maintenance. While automated valves are gaining popularity, manual cryogenic valves remain the top choice because of their proven reliability, cost-effectiveness, and widespread use in critical applications.
   

Based on the application, the market is segmented as gas pipeline and transportation, supplying lines, filling devices, bulk storage tanks, and others (storage tank & piping, etc.). The supply line segment is expected to hold a major share of 37% in 2024.
 

• Supplying line applications, with significant end-use, are the largest segment in the U.S. cryogenic valve market owing to their criticality in the transport and distribution of cryogenic fluids such as LNG, liquid oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen.
