Oil And Gas Swell Packers Market Analysis
The Oil And Gas Swell Packers Market is expected to register a CAGR of greater than 1.5% during the forecast period.
The outbreak of COVID-19 had a negative effect on the market. Currently, the market has rebounded to pre-pandemic levels.
- Increasing production of oil and gas, along with rapidly growing drilling and completion operations in oil and gas fields, are likely to drive the oil and gas swell packers market.
- However, the volatile oil prices are expected to slow downstream activities and restrain the oil and gas swell packers' market.
- The development in the area of gas hydrates, which is still in the research phase, and its requirement for new technologies for its production are likely to create several opportunities for the oil and gas swell packers market in the future.
- Due to its rapidly growing upstream industry, North America is expected to be the fastest-growing market for oil and gas swell packers during the forecast period. In 2021, the region produced 4.8% more crude oil than the previous year, which is likely to positively impact the swell packers market.
Oil And Gas Swell Packers Market Trends
Onshore Segment Expected to Dominate the Market
- The increasing number of wells and the completion of several new and workover wells, which require swell packers to seal the area between the drill pipe and casing, will likely drive the market. Moreover, swell packers have very few moving parts, making them simple and not requiring a drill stem to install them in position.
- Moreover, the lower investment cost of onshore field development than offshore is attracting more investment in onshore, thus driving the oil and gas swell packers market during the forecast period.
- In 2021, the global natural gas production was 4036.9 billion cubic meters (bcm), higher than the world's production in 2020, 3861.5 bcm. Moreover, in 2021, about 5.88% of the electricity generated worldwide was from natural gas. The increasing demand for and production of natural gas around the world is likely to positively impact more well-completion activities, which are expected to drive the oil and gas swell packers market.
- In recent years, several new oil and gas fields were discovered around the world. In 2022, a new oil field was found in Egypt, which includes 42 oil wells and 11 gas wells in the Western Desert, the Suez Gulf, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Nile Delta. The development of such newly discovered fields is expected to positively impact the oil and gas swell packers market.
- Hence, owing to the above points, the onshore segment is likely to dominate the oil and gas swell packers market during the forecast period.
North America Expected to be the Fastest Growing Market
- North America, due to its rapid increase in crude oil and natural gas production around the world, held a significant share of the market. In 2021, North America produced approximately 26.6% of the global crude oil production.
- Countries in North America have planned to decrease their carbon signature by using cleaner fuels, such as natural gas, from which the carbon emissions are less. In countries like North America, natural gas energy has already surpassed coal-based power and is likely to take over the energy sector, thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
- The increasing use of swell packers can also be seen as an alternative to mechanical packers with complex designs, which are likely to encounter some problems when installed or uninstalled. Swell packers, on the other hand, are simple and do not have such issues.
- As of 2021, North America's crude oil production was 1074.7 million metric tons (MT), which was higher than the region produced in 2020, at 1058.7 million tons (MT). The increase in crude oil production over the year reflects the increase in new wells, which require the installation of packers to prevent the casing from getting eroded. This is likely going to drive the swell packers market in the region.
- As of 2022, the United States had a total of 756 active rotary rigs, of which 14 are offshore rigs, 4 are inland water rigs, and 738 are onshore rigs. A rotary rig is considered active when it is on location and is drilling the majority of the week (4 days out of 7 days). This indicates the dominance of fixed assets such as drilling rigs and production platforms in the upstream segment of the country. Increasing production is likely to positively impact the oil and gas swell packers market during the forecast period.
- Hence, owing to the above points, North America is expected to be the fastest-growing market for oil and gas swell packers during the forecast period.
