Stimulation Materials Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global stimulation materials market size reached US$ 53.6 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 101.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 11.30% during 2022-2028.

Stimulation materials are used in oil and gas wells to inject microbes and remove deposits of heavy components, such as wax and asphaltene. They generally comprise proppants, including coated sand, raw frac, clay-based ceramic, and sintered bauxite. Nowadays, leading manufacturers are introducing ultra-lightweight proppants that reduce frac height, injected fluids, and the need for wellbore cleanouts. They are also offering standard and customized chemical solutions for enhancing the stimulation process and the flow of oil and gas. These solutions include advanced integrated fluid systems like crosslinkers, breakers, buffers, clay control, surfactants, biocides, friction reducers, scale inhibitors, and gelling systems.

Stimulation Materials Market Trends:
The increasing need for fuel is positively influencing the use of shale gas worldwide. This represents one of the major factors influencing the demand for stimulation materials worldwide for extracting shale gas via hydraulic fracking in hydrocarbon reservoirs. Moreover, governments of numerous countries are implementing stringent regulations to minimize the negative effects of hydraulic fracking. This, in turn, is promoting the adoption of green materials with less impact on the environment. Apart from this, advances in hydraulic fracturing technology, such as horizontal drilling, high-volume, and multistage, along with the development of shale resources, are driving the demand for new stimulation materials to improve drilling efficiencies. The rising oil and gas prices worldwide are also encouraging companies to adopt advanced methods like stimulation. Furthermore, key manufacturers are introducing products that provide thermal stability and chemical and crush resistance and prevent proppant flow back in high-temperature and closure stress environments during the fracturing of deep gas and oil wells. They are also offering value-added coated sand and ceramic proppants that minimize water usage while increasing well productivity. These innovations are projected to impel the growth of the market.
