Oil And Gas Drilling Automation Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The O&G price recovery is notably driving the oil and gas drilling automation market growth, although factors such as high ownership costs may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the oil and gas drilling automation industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Oil And Gas Drilling Automation Market Driver

O&G price recovery is a major driver fueling the oil and gas drilling automation market growth. Since 2019, the moderate recovery in crude oil prices has spurred growth in oil and gas (O&G) extraction projects in countries such as the US, Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Kuwait. Rapid fluctuations in crude oil prices adversely impacted the economic activities in oil-dependent regions such as the Middle East during 2016-2019. Owing to factors such as the limited production of crude oil in key oil-producing countries, such as the US and Russia, and geopolitical factors, such as the US-China trade war, oil prices witnessed considerable stability in 2019. Additionally, the restoration of oil production facilities in Saudi Arabia to full capacity is expected to cater to the global demand for O&G at stable prices during the forecast period.Owing to rapid advances in automation and system integration technologies, automated drilling solutions are finding increased adoption in onshore and offshore oil and gas sites. Offshore rigs are equipped with cybernetics systems to improve equipment manipulation and automate key processes such as pipe handling, jacking, and fixation. Therefore, the recovery in crude oil prices is expected to drive the adoption of O&G drilling automation solutions globally during the forecast period.

Key Oil And Gas Drilling Automation Market Trend

The adoption of IoT technology is the major trend influencing the oil and gas drilling automation market growth. The adoption of the internet of things (IoT) devices for in-depth monitoring and data capturing in the O&G industry is improving the overall efficiency of O&G operations. With crude oil prices registering considerable recovery over the last two years, rig operators and oil producers are emphasizing optimizing the energy efficiency of oilfields. IoT devices are being increasingly used in the O&G industry for a range of applications, including drilling management, pipeline testing, and monitoring, among others. IoT enables oil rig operators and refineries to monitor key performance parameters such as pipe pressure and flow rate. Additionally, IoT ensures accurate and real-time data collection at locations that are not easily accessible. Smart devices provide notifications in advance to operators about any drilling errors or incorrect measurements, thereby minimizing the requirement for routine manual inspections. Advances in connected technologies such as low-power wide-area networks (LPWAN) enable connectivity between monitoring sensors in remote offshore applications. Therefore, the rising adoption of IoT in drilling activities is expected to drive the growth of the global O&G drilling automation market during the forecast period.

Key Oil And Gas Drilling Automation Market Challenge

High ownership costs are a major hindrance to the oil and gas drilling automation market growth. The high costs of automated equipment and technologies have been a significant limitation to the growth of the global O&G drilling automation market in the last few years. Drilling automation involves considerable initial costs related to the installation of equipment and software. Additionally, owing to factors such as the lack of equipment standardization and limited software interoperability, several rig operators opt for semi-automated drilling operations that require the retention of trained manpower. Subsequently, although drilling automation improves operational efficiency and minimizes the requirement of human labor, especially in remote offshore environments. The lack of interoperability between different equipment in a specific system also contributes to the overall ownership costs for rig operators. Several vendors offer semi-automated systems for various applications, such as drill floor optimization, and the equipment installed in these semi-automated systems are vendor-specific and only compatible with the automation solutions provided by the same equipment manufacturing vendors. Thus, the high ownership costs associated with the setup, installation, and replacement of automated equipment and software are expected to continue to restrict the growth of the global O&G drilling automation market during the forecast period.
