Global oilfield services market has been witnessing growth significantly over the past few decades due to rising demand for energy. Oilfield services refer to the activities that are carried out at oil and gas fields to support efficient extraction of hydrocarbons. These include services such as drilling, pressure pumping, well completion, coiled tubing, wireline logging, and drilling fluids across onshore and offshore oilfields. Growing demand for crude oil and natural gas from various industries has been promoting greater exploration and production activities, thereby, fueling the need for various oilfield services. Technological advancements in areas such as hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling are enabling extraction from unconventional reservoirs, and driving the oilfield services market growth worldwide.
Market Dynamics:
Global oilfield services market is expected to be driven by several factors in the coming years. Rising energy consumption on the back of fast-paced industrialization and urbanization is significantly boosting demand for oil and gas. This boosts exploration and production spending by operators, and drives the market growth. However, volatility in oil prices poses a major challenge as it leads to fluctuations in exploration budgets. Technological advancements in areas such as hydraulic fracturing and directional drilling are opening up vast unconventional reserves, and thereby, creating new opportunities. This is encouraging operators to ramp up drilling activities. Growing trend of offshore deep water and ultra-deep-water exploration globally also provides new avenues for oilfield service providers. Furthermore, productivity gains from digital transformation of oilfields using IoT, AI, and cloud computing are attracting investments in these advanced technologies.
