Oilfield Equipment Rental Services Market Trends

• 
  

  Oilfield equipment technological advancements propel market growth.

  
  

Market CAGR for oilfield equipment rental services is primarily driven by the technological advances in oilfield equipment. Oil and gas companies are shifting their exploration focus to unconventional and deep hydrocarbon reservoirs such as shale gas, coal bed methane (CBM), tight gas, and heavy oil. To undertake operations in various unconventional and deep reservoir settings, the petroleum sector now has modern IT-based technology and software. This paves the way for new age technology to be used as a tool to carry out difficult operations.

For instance, an advanced Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) circulation sub that aids in drilling and hole-cleanup operations. The RFID circulation sub allows operators to reduce non-productive time. The application of advanced drilling and completion technologies have enabled financially viable drilling in shale formations. The traditional equipment are not fully equipped to meet the new challenges. Large shale oil and gas deposits have become accessible because to technologies like horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. The number of oil rigs now includes a larger horizontal component.

The stability of crude oil prices, which has enhanced the profit margin for drilling and production businesses, is another factor contributing to the growth in projects. This element contributes to market expansion throughout the forecast period. Furthermore, technological improvements such as directional drilling and hydraulic fracturing have aided the spread of shale gas production from such key sources. Furthermore, shale drilling necessitates a wide range of oilfield equipment and services. These factors will also contribute to market expansion in the following year.

Oilfield Equipment Rental Services Market Segment Insights:

Oilfield Equipment Rental Services Drilling Equipment Insights

The oilfield equipment rental services market segmentation, based on drilling equipment includes drill pipe, drill collars, heavy-wate, drill subs. The drill pipe category has the biggest market share due to extensive drilling activity both offshore and onshore. Shale production, which requires drill pipes as a necessary piece of equipment, has also increased. About 95% of a drill string's length is made up of drill pipes, which are seamless steel pipes. For the record, a drill string is used to actually drill into the earth in order to extract minerals. Because the drill pipe is hollow, drilling fluid may flow freely through it, which facilitates efficient pumping. Drill pipes are designed to distribute drilling torque the whole length of the pipe, which is sometimes many miles.

Oilfield Equipment Rental Services Pressure and Flow Control Insights

The oilfield equipment rental services market segmentation, based on pressure and flow control, includes BOP, valves & manifolds and others. The BOPs segment led the oilfield equipment rental services market in 2022. BOPs are regarded as one of the most crucial and critical components on a drilling site since they aid in managing the back pressure kick inside the wellbore. These objects are viewed as a secondary option for managing the back pressure kick in the wellbore, because the major option for controlling the back pressure kick while drilling a well is the weight of the mud itself.

Oilfield Equipment Rental Services Regional Insights

By region, the study provides the market insights into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Rest of the World. In 2022, North America held the biggest market share, accounting for 41%. The increasing production of oil and gas in the region is expected to boost the expansion of the market in this region. The United States is one of the world's top producers and users of oil and gas.
