North America Drilling & Completion Fluids Market 2018-2023 – Segmented by Fluid Type, Deployment, and Geography – ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "North America Drilling & Completion Fluids Market - Segmented by Fluid Type, Deployment, and Geography - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2018 - 2023)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The North American drilling and completion fluids market was valued USD 4.78 billion in 2016, and is expected to witness robust growth during the forecast period of 2018-2023.

Over the past decade, the North American region, particularly the United States and Canada, have experienced impressive growth in terms of unconventional fossil fuel production, particularly shale reserves, tight oil, and oil sands. Technologies, such as hydraulic fracturing and horizontal directional drilling (HDD), have helped the North American region to sustain the global oil prices downturn, starting mid-2014. Despite the lower oil prices scenarios beginning mid-2014, the quest for unconventional reserve production in the United States has resulted in the drilling of more wells.

The US shale producers have drilled at record rates over the past 18 months, increasing from 491 wells in May 2016 to 1246 wells in January 2018, thus driving an increased demand for specialized drilling & completion fluids in the region. Factors, such as an increased investment to harness the unconventional reserves, coupled with rising deepwater and ultra-deepwater exploration and production (E&P) activities in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) region amid oil prices rebound to a sustainable level since mid-2014, is expected to supplement the demand during the forecast period.
