Global Oilfield Air Drilling Industry Overview
Recovering crude oil prices are increasing oil and gas exploration & production (E&P) activities. As a result, the need for oil and gas drilling rigs is rising, which, in turn, is increasing the requirement for drilling activities. The advent of air drilling techniques and their benefits have prompted oilfield drilling companies to adopt them. Air drilling ensures economical and safe oil well drilling operations. Owing to reduced operational cost and enhanced oil and gas production offered by air drilling techniques, oil and gas companies and drilling service providers prefer deploying them. Therefore, increasing the active rig count will augment the use of air drilling techniques, which will drive the oilfield air drilling market growth during the forecast period.
Rising concern about safety while manually handling rig equipment has increased the need for automating E&P operations. Rig automation allows remote monitoring and operations, increasing safety. Moreover, automated rigs can enhance the efficiency of oil and gas drilling operations with the help of analytical data. Also, integrating air drilling techniques, which are already efficient, with automated drilling rigs will further increase productivity and profits. Therefore, automation in drilling rigs is one of the key oilfield air drilling market trends. The trend is expected to contribute to the growth of the market at a CAGR of almost 6% during the forecast period.
