Enhanced Oil Recovery Market Outlook

The enhanced oil recovery market is likely to secure a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period. The market is projected to be valued at US$ 50.79 Bn in 2022 and likely to be valued at US$ 78.88 Bn by 2032.

Enhanced oil recovery market share is anticipated to rise due to the growing adoption of enhanced oil recovery by the oil & gas sector during the forecast period. The key manufacturers are adding new technologies to improve the efficiency of enhanced oil recovery in recent years.

The key marketers are using enhanced oil recovery mechanisms to extract the oil by applying several enhanced oil recovery methods. They are using the mechanism for the water injection enhanced oil recovery and extracting the maximum amount of oil from the oil field, which is likely to increase the overall production and enhanced oil recovery market size.

The key manufacturers are adopting enhanced oil recovery methods such as primary recovery methods and secondary recovery methods. In addition, the marketers are using enhanced oil recovery technology which the process is injected gases, chemicals and water to change the oil's physical properties.

In addition, GCC technology is one of the mature oil extraction technology which is adopted by several top crude oil companies to upsurge the enhanced oil recovery market value during the forecast period. Moreover, these companies attached enhanced oil labels to promote their respective products, which increased the market share during the forecast period.

On the other hand, the adoption of chemical oil recovery is the key factor in increasing the overall market production by reducing the cost of enhanced oil recovery in recent years. Western countries are likely to dominate the market size due to increasing numbers of oil & gas industry and developing thermal enhanced oil recovery during the forecast period.

In recent year, Gulf Energy LLC has developed its new microbial-enhanced oil recovery to increase the production of crude oil and adopting GCC technology are likely to advance the microbial-enhanced oil recovery market share.

Moreover, manufacturing companies are making strategies to acquire the maximum share of the market to achieve their goal in the coming years. They are using several methodologies such as partnerships, mergers, acquisitions and product launches to acquire a secure lion’s share.

Some of the key participant companies in the enhanced oil recovery market are BP Plc, Cenovus Energy Inc, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Chevron Corporation, ConocoPhillips, OAO Lukoil, ExxonMobil Corporation, Petronas, Statoil ASA and Royal Dutch Shell Plc among others.

North America is dominating the market size by acquiring the maximum share in the global enhanced oil recovery market during the forecast period. A country such as the US is the maximum contributor in the region.

Growing numbers of oil fields and rising production of oil boosted the US enhanced oil recovery market share during the forecast period. Moreover, companies in Canada are adopting EOR technology to extract oil from oil fields which is likely to increase the demand for enhanced oil recovery by the end-use industries.

Technological Trends Help Manufacturers Leverage Maximum Advantage

The term ‘enhanced oil recovery’ (EOR) refers to the technology used to extract crude oil that cannot be extracted through conventional technologies from oil reservoirs. It is also termed as tertiary recovery process as it takes place after primary and secondary oil recoveries.

Oil extracted via primary recovery accounts for 5% to 15% of the total reservoir while secondary recovery can extract about 20% to 60% of the total oil present in the reservoir. By installing enhanced oil recovery technology, 35% to 75% oil can easily be extracted from the oil reservoir.

Enhanced oil recovery method is widely being adopted by the oil & gas market participants for their aged and newly explored wells. In addition, new technologies are being developed to improve the efficiency of the enhanced oil recovery technique.

GCC is one of the mature oil extractors and has quite a good number of aged oil wells. To extract the proved reserves, oil extraction companies are pushing the use of enhanced oil recovery in existing oil wells. Besides, a number of new methods are being developed in the market such as chemical enhanced oil recovery to reduce the cost of oil recovery.

On the basis of technology, enhanced oil recovery market in GCC can be broadly categorised as thermal enhanced oil recovery, gas/CO2 enhanced oil recovery, and chemical enhanced oil recovery.

Thermal enhanced oil recovery technology consumes hot water and steam to stimulate the extraction of crude oil from the reservoir. Old oil wells of GCC, with heavy and viscous oil flow are adopting this technique on a larger scale.

The commonly used steam injection enhanced oil recovery methods are cyclic steam stimulation (CSS), steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) and steam flooding. Gas injection enhanced oil recovery utilises CO2. Therefore, it also solves the greenhouse gas disposal issue. Growing regulatory norms of GCC to reduce greenhouse gas emission is therefore supplementing the gas enhanced oil recovery method.

Gas enhanced oil recovery can be further categorised as CO2 based, nitrogen based and hydrogen based. Further, chemical injection enhanced oil recovery can be categorized as polymer based, surfactant solution based, alkali based, microbial based and others.

One of the major technological trends of the GCC enhanced oil recovery market is to combine chemical enhanced oil recovery technique with other EOR technologies to derive maximum advantage.

GCC is expected to show the highest growth rate in the global enhanced oil recovery market. This is mainly attributed to the growing number of oil reserves which exist in the Middle East. More than 8 Bn barrels of oil are expected to remain performing primary and secondary operations on Gulf of Mexico offshore reservoirs. Such factors are pushing the demand for new enhanced oil recovery installation in GCC.

Due to such factors coupled with Go Green strategies, GCC is developing a number of enhanced oil recovery techniques that are renewable or bio-based, such as the development of solar-powered thermal enhanced oil recovery

Many Gulf countries are witnessing gas supply shortage; however, they have high subsidies for fuel which alter the retail price of gas. Thus, market participants such as GlassPoint developed solar steam generators for the oil & gas industry to be used in enhanced oil recovery.

One of the key strategies of the GCC enhanced oil recovery market is to develop patented technologies. For instance, Gulf Energy LLC has developed microbial enhanced oil recovery system considering water scarcity in GCC. Further, companies are also involved in the strategy of expansion through exploration of new fields.

With the emergence of the GCC EOR market, it is expected that affiliated markets such as technology services, maintenance services and consulting services will also grow. Market participants are also expanding their business in the service model.

BP Plc, Cenovus Energy Inc, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Chevron Corporation, ConocoPhillips, OAO Lukoil, ExxonMobil Corporation, Petronas, Statoil ASA and Royal Dutch Shell Plc are some of the key market participants of GCC enhanced oil recovery market.
