These key players are involved in product innovations pertaining to air drilling fluids, water-based muds, and other specialty chemicals. Companies are investing in R&D to develop multi-functional fluid additives, which offer a competitive edge over other market players. Different companies have their own patented drilling fluid solutions meant for specific types of wellbore conditions.

Drilling Fluids Market

Overview of the Drilling Fluids Market

Drilling fluid, also called drilling mud, aids in the process of drilling a borehole into the earth. Boreholes are drilled for oil & gas extraction, core sampling, and other purposes. Drilling fluids serve many functions such as controlling formation pressures, removing cuttings from the wellbore, sealing permeable formations encountered while drilling, cooling, lubricating the bit, transmitting hydraulic energy to downhole bit and tools, and maintaining wellbore stability & well control.

The global market for drilling fluids is projected to grow at a decent pace from 2022 to 2031, due to the rise in investment for the exploration and production of offshore oil & gas. Growth in shale oil & gas exploration has encouraged many countries around the world to exploit their own unconventional gas resources. Apart from innovations in drilling fluids, companies are manufacturing robust drill pipes. Drill pipe is an important tool for drilling in oil fields. Drill pipes are subjected to various types of loads and are operated under different environmental conditions.

Large Numbers of Proven Oil & Gas Reserves to Drive Market Growth

Currently, 79.4% of the world's proven oil reserves are located in OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) member countries. It has been found that a large bulk of OPEC oil reserves are located in the Middle East, amounting to 64.5% of the total reserves.

OPEC member countries have made significant additions to their oil reserves in recent years by adopting the best practices in the industry. These countries engage in intensive exploration and recovery operations. OPEC's proven oil reserves currently stand at 1,189.80 billion barrels.

It has been found that oil & gas resources are not distributed evenly around the world. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, about 15 countries account for more than 75% of the world’s oil production and hold roughly 93% of its reserves. These countries are projected to constitute a correspondingly large percentage of the world’s remaining undiscovered oil resources. Hence, companies in this market are unlocking revenue opportunities in key OPEC countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Kuwait among others.

The U.S. and Russia are low on the list of oil reserves; however, they rank high in terms of oil production. More than 95 million barrels of oil were produced globally every day in 2020. The U.S., Saudi Arabia, and Russia are among the top oil-producing countries in the world.

Increase in Consumption of Energy to Boost Demand for Drilling Fluids

The rise in industrialization activities and population has led to high consumption of energy per day. It has been found that fossil fuels supply about 84% of the world’s energy. Hence, the extraction of oil & gas, and fossil fuels has increased across the globe. A rise in investment in the exploration and production of offshore oil & gas is propelling the adoption of drilling fluids around the world.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) prepares annual projections about potential energy demand using a number of different scenarios. According to the IEA 2021 report, global demand for natural gas is expected to increase by 31% by 2040, supplying 17% of the total energy consumed worldwide. The global demand for crude oil is likely to increase by 21%, supplying 35% of the total energy consumed by 2040. Such trends are fueling the demand for drilling fluids.

Demand for Environment-friendly Water-based Muds Augments Growth of Drilling Fluids Business

In terms of type, the global market for drilling fluids has been classified into water-based muds, oil-based muds, and synthetic-based muds. The water-based muds segment accounted for a significant share of 53.4% of the global market in 2021. The segment is estimated to expand at a growth rate of 5.8% during the forecast period. This is evident since water-based mud is the most common drilling fluid, owing to its environment-friendly characteristics and non-toxic nature.

Some water-based specialty chemical fluids can be designed and engineered to be suitable for high-temperature & high-pressure environments. In water-based mud, the base fluid is water. Water-based mud is considered the most environmentally favorable and less expensive mud. It is typically used to drill the top section of the well. Water-based mud falls into two basic categories which are dispersed and non-dispersed mud. The basic difference between dispersed and non-dispersed mud is the lack of dispersants. Non-dispersed drilling mud does not require an elevated pH, while dispersed mud has a chemical dispersant added to the system that is used to deflocculate mud soils.

Investments in Drilling Activities to Propel Growth in Onshore Applications

Based on application, the onshore segment dominated the global drilling fluids market with a 66.16% share in 2021. Furthermore, the segment is expected to grow at a notable CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period. This is evident since onshore drilling has risen compared to offshore drilling over the past 20 years. Additionally, an increase in awareness about safe oilfield equipment operations is likely to boost the demand for onshore drilling fluids.

The global oil industry is expected to grow steadily in the near future due to the rise in demand for gasoline and fuels. Key players in the oil & gas industry are focusing on mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in order to expand their global presence.

Drilling fluids are essential during drilling operations. A rise in investment in drilling activities in the North Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, and the South China Sea has propelled the onshore segment of the global market. New approvals for drilling operations from governments of different countries are also expected to boost the consumption of drilling fluids during the forecast period. Though the onshore segment is growing at a rapid pace, stable revenue opportunities in offshore applications are benefitting market players. Hence, companies are utilizing robust marine propulsion systems in vessels to tap incremental opportunities in offshore applications.

Regional Outlook of the Global Drilling Fluids Industry

In terms of volume, North America held a 51.55%% share of the global market in 2021. The high demand for drilling fluids in the region can be ascribed to the rise in exploration and drilling activities for shale gas in North America.

In terms of volume, the Asia Pacific and Europe are also prominent regions of the drilling fluids market. These regions held 16% and 27.0% share, respectively, of the global market in 2021. The demand for drilling fluids is anticipated to increase in the Asia Pacific, owing to the growth in drilling operations in countries such as India, China, Indonesia, and Australia.

Latin America is a relatively minor consumer of drilling fluids; however, it has been found that countries such as Argentina and Brazil in Latin America have increased their capital expenditure on drilling wells. This is expected to boost the demand for drilling fluids in the region.

Key Developments in Global Drilling Fluids Market

  • In February 2020, Schlumberger Limited was awarded an engineering and supply contract by Noble Energy for a 2000-ton single-lift process module to be installed on the Leviathan Platform in the Eastern Mediterranean. The scope of the contract includes a pretreatment, salt removal, and regeneration of monoethylene glycol (MEG) for reinjection in subsea flowlines for hydrate inhibition.
  • In May 2020, Clariant International Ltd released BaraShale Lite Fluid System, a high-performance water-based fluid designed to maintain full salt saturation with reduced density. It helps prevent loss of circulation; and minimizes waste disposal costs. The newly launched fluid enables operators to overcome these challenges using a proprietary additive that tightly combines the base fluid, which consists of brine to prevent salt washout, and oil to lighten the mud weight.
