Sand Control Equipment Market

Sand Control Equipment Market Insights

The sand control equipment market is estimated to grow at a moderate CAGR during the forecast period. Increasing drilling activities across the globe, high rates of offshore rigs, rising oil & gas production, growth in number of wells and ease in drilling and production of gas among others are some of major drivers which are anticipated to drive the market growth of sand control equipment.

The sand control equipment consists of devices which help in exclusion of sand formations and its mixing during the extraction process of hydrocarbons. The system is used to enhance the productivity and performance of well, thus giving it one of the most important role in overall completion process. The equipment also helps in elimination of problems such as erosion of hardware and down-hole cavities.

Sand Control Equipment Market: By Application

The sand control equipment market can be segmented based on application into onshore and offshore. Onshore application segment is expected to hold the largest market share in terms of revenue. This strong hold can be attributed to various factors such as lower drilling cost of onshore application, presence of large number of onshore sites, and increasing dependency on conventional oil & gas among others. However, market for offshore application is expected to grow at high CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to increasing offshore operations of oil & gas extraction, well completion, and cementing job. Energy produced offshore is one of the major components of global oil & natural gas supply and could offer important source of renewable electricity. Increasing offshore oil and gas operations majorly in Middle East, Brazil, North Sea, Gulf of Mexico and the Caspian Sea is expected to increase the CAGR of sand control equipment during the forecast period.

Sand Control Equipment Market: By Technique

The sand control equipment market can be segmented on the basis of technique into gravel pack, frac pack, sand screens, and inflow control devices. Gravel pack segment is expected to hold the largest market share in the forecast period owing to increased drilling of conventional oil & gas fields in the onshore regions across the globe. Frac pack system technique holds the second largest market share followed by sand screen technique. The sand control equipment is widely used in onshore arena. However, inflow control devices segment is anticipated to witness highest CAGR during the forecast period. Reduction in expenditure and increasing life span are some of the major factors driving the growth of inflow control devices segment in the sand control equipment market
