The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has hampered the growth of the distributed fiber optic sensor market due to the lockdowns by governments of several major economies in order to rein the spread of COVID-19. However, the supply chain and production have been increasing in Europe, North America, APAC, the Middle East, and the rest of the world. The lockdown in various countries caused a shortage of labor in industrial, oil & gas, and infrastructure firms. With the increase in COVID-19, the demand for oil had substantially dropped. Many manufacturing companies were unable to get the labor due to the travel restrictions even though the lockdown has lifted.
