Drill Bit Market Analysis
The drill bit market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 6.6% during 2022-2027. With the COVID-19 outbreak, several oil and gas projects had been suspended or delayed due to travel bans, supply chain disruptions, and low crude oil prices. In April 2020, crude oil prices collapsed due to low crude oil demand due to several restrictions imposed due to COVID-19. Low crude oil price reduces the operator's profit margin, thus negatively impacting the upstream activities and the market studied. Major factors driving the drill bit market include increasing oil and gas exploration and development activities, unconventional field developments, and directional drilling. Moreover, the crude oil price volatility and the efforts made by the major countries to shift from fossil fuel-based energy mix to renewables are expected to hinder the growth of the market studied.
- The fixed cutter bit segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period due to its advantages compared to the roller cone bit. It is also considered the best drill bit for shale formations.
- Exploring new markets in emerging countries of South America and Southeast Asia and innovations in the drill bit technological landscape are likely to present vital opportunities to the drill bit manufacturers in the future.
- North America has dominated the drill bit market in 2020 and is expected to continue its dominance during the forecast period.
