China Oil and Gas Upstream Market Outlook to 2021

China upstream oil & gas market has been estimated at USD XX billion in 2015 and is projected to reach USD XX billion by 2021, at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2016 to 2021.

The oil & gas upstream business segment is the first chronological link in the chain of petroleum industry. This segment works through high-tech exploration and production methods; utilizes specialized controls and computer applications for developing oil sands and heavy oil in cold-climates, and in the harshest offshore environments. Starting with the aerial surveys, followed by surface observation and later exploring beneath the earth’s surface through seismic surveys is a challenge for this sector. Furthermore, this activity has a tough aim of enhancing oil recovery, while also managing the environmental impact. Crude oil is the most actively traded commodity in the world and the market is dominated by large conglomerates that are competing for ever dwindling resources, thus creating a stronger market rivalry.

This multi-faceted environment has been capable of adapting to the technological advancements such as digitization, robotics and analytics, in turn fueling the midstream and downstream processes. In 2015, there was an increase in supply and a decline in demand that caused a systemic imbalance for the economies around the world. China is expected to fill the production backlog by completing the drilled-but-uncompleted (DUC) wells, as a result of the price of crude oil settling at a profitable rate.

China upstream market has reserves of oil, natural gas and also the natural gas liquids. Presently, the crude oil reserves are XX billion barrels, the natural gas reserves are XX trillion cubic feet and the reserves of natural gas liquids are XX billion barrels.
