Global Drilling and Completion Fluid Market Outlook to 2028
The rising demand for oil and gas coupled with significant shale developments, continued exploration activities, ongoing technological advancements, and supportive government policies are some of the significant factors projected to boost the growth of the global drilling and completion fluids market.
Drilling and completion fluids are used during the drilling and well completion activities to bring up the drill cuttings and to prepare the well for production.
With the outbreak of Covid-19 and related economic repercussions, there is a decrease in the price and demand for oil and gas, causing a decrease in the demand for the drilling and completion fluid market.
The drilling rig count has reduced significantly in North America, as exploration budgets slashed and major oil and gas companies renegotiate their contract terms.
The market is segmented into water-based fluids, synthetic-based fluids, and oil-based fluids. The synthetic includes esters, olefins, and paraffin that offer superior performance in high-temperature wells and are mostly preferred for offshore applications. These fluids provide an increased rate of penetration and high drilling efficiency.
The oil-based fluids can be diesel, kerosene, or mineral low toxic oil. It can support drilling in high-temperature conditions, high rate of penetration, and effective shale inhibition.
Whereas, water-based fluids are composed of base fluids, usually freshwater or seawater, clay, and other additives, and they are relatively economical with poor waste management and disposal costs.
It is anticipated that the drilling and completion fluids market will grow in the medium term, owing to rising shale developments. Moreover, the rising rig count in North America, the development of new ports and drilling sites shall also play to the global market's advantage.
