Geothermal Drill Bits Market By Type (Tricone Drill Bits, PDC Drill Bits, Others), By Application (Offshore, Onshore): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031
The global geothermal drill bits market size was valued at $3.4 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $5.8 billion by 2031, with a CAGR of 5.4% from 2022 to 2031.
Geothermal drill bits are one of the most important accessories used in drilling operations while constructing geothermal power plants. These are used to cut and drill geothermal wells. PDC drill bits, Tri-cone roller drill bits, and drag bits are widely used in the drilling of geothermal rock for various geothermal resources such as oil & gas. PDC bits provide drilling firms with the ability to drill wells aggressively and apply up to one million pounds per square inch of pressure in three dimensions. Tungsten carbide, one of the strongest drilling materials, because it can tolerate high temperatures and pressures, is the primary material used to make tricone bits.
Oil and gas are significant energy sources for economic growth in the majority of industrialized and developing nations. Urbanization and industrialization are accelerating globally, which has raised the demand for petroleum resources and led to the discovery of new oil reserves. Oil and gas-based products, which are mostly used to power factories, heat homes, and power ships that move people and goods around the world, are essential for modern civilization. Oil, one of the biggest commodities in the world, accounts for around 3% of the GDP. Aspirin, clothes, transportation fuel, chemicals, plastics, fertilizers, personal protection equipment, and even solar panels are all things made from petroleum. The presence of the above-mentioned factors and the application of petroleum resources in various industries is a major driving factor for the market growth.
The presence of low natural geothermal resources in developed and emerging nations has caused the countries to switch to other environment-friendly renewable energy sources including solar, wind, and tidal, which has a detrimental effect on the market's growth. Another reason that is expected to cause a decrease in demand for the geothermal drill bit market is the growth in government and private sector investment into the development of solar and wind power plants, owing to their lower initial investment and maintenance costs compared to geothermal power plants. The development of the market will also be hampered by the growing public awareness of the adverse effects of fossil fuels and the limitations of geothermal power facilities.
Tri-cone drill bits' outstanding wear and tear resistance boost their efficiency, which is fueling and significantly propelling the geothermal drill bits market. Some drill bit manufacturers on the market are always endeavoring to increase the effectiveness of their products. Drill bit manufacturers are also utilizing cutting-edge dynamics stimulation, which combines technologies such as cutting depth modulation, rate of penetration (ROP), cutter processing for improved durability, rock interaction analysis, and creative material utilization, to create three-dimensional bit prototypes. These developments are anticipated to increase the market for geothermal drill bits as a result of these results. The number of geothermal projects is increasing as a consequence of better funding and investments, which is increasing the need for geothermal drill bits, which is anticipated to propel the geothermal drill bits market in the power generation sector in the near future.
North America also accounted for a significant share of the global market revenue in 2021. The geothermal drill bits market in North America is experiencing enormous growth due to the presence of exploration of shale gas resources in the oil & gas industry. The presence of an increase in awareness related to an eco-friendly economy has led to the utilization of hot springs and geysers in this region to generate power and heat for millions of people. The presence of investments among the major companies to break through various technologies to extract geothermal resources through geothermal power plants, is thereby providing lucrative growth opportunities to North America. The above factors are expected to drive the growth of the geothermal drill bits market in this region during this forecast period. On the other hand, the market in Asia-Pacific is estimated to register the fastest growth rate over the forecast period.
The global geothermal drill bits market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. By type, the market is segmented into PDC bits, Tricone roller bits, and others. By application, it is bifurcate into onshore and offshore. Region-wise, the market is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. Presently, Europe accounts for the largest share of the market, followed by North America, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
Impact of Covid-19 on Global Geothermal Drill Bits Market
Post-pandemic, there is a significant demand for the geothermal drill bits market mostly due to an increase in the investment of the government for the development of offshore resource exploration and restart related to the construction of the geothermal power plant to produce renewable power. In addition, government policies such as tax rebates, and investment of government toward the generation of power from geothermal energy are expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the development of the market.
