Polycrystalline Diamond Compact Drill Bit Market Analysis
The polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) drill bit market is expected to register a CAGR of over 4% during 2020-2025. Factors, such as increased exploration activity and focus on development of new oil and gas fields, are expected to drive the market for PDC drill bits. Drilling activity, especially footage drilled, are expected to drive the demand for PDC drill bits. However, the volatile oil prices over the recent period, owing to the supply-demand gap, geopolitics, and several other factors have been restraining the growth of the PDC drill bit market.
The onshore segment accounted for the maximum market share in 2018. Onshore drilling encompasses all the drilling sites located on dry land and accounts for 70% of the global oil production.
The increasing oil and gas discoveries, coupled with the liberalization in the industry, have been providing new opportunities for the market players. The new emerging markets are several developing nations of Middle East & Africa, Asia-Pacific, and South America.
North America accounted for the maximum market share in 2018. The growth rate of the South American region is expected to be the highest during the forecast period, primarily due to the rapidly increasing oil and gas activities in the region.
