The global sand control tools market was estimated to reach a valuation of USD 5.23 Billion in the year 2022. With a steady CAGR of 4.1% from 2023 to 2033, this market is expected to reach USD 5.44 Billion by 2023 and USD 8.14 Billion by 2033.
Some of the key developments to look out for in this market are:
The attempts to raise the reserve to manufacture ratio from wells and ongoing shale development operations are the main drivers propelling the market for sand control tools. The reserves-to-production ratio shows how long, at a specific production rate, a natural resource will last. Oilfield operators are thus concentrating on existing wells and enhancing the reserves-to-production ratio due to the drop in crude oil prices. These kinds of excavations are thus pulled off by these sand control tools.
Major oil and gas firms have also turned their focus away from oil reserves and toward technical developments to develop the tools and methods necessary to access remaining reserves in conventional wells as a result of the drop in oil reserves. Oilfield operator firms are presently concentrating on boosting recovery and prolonging the life of existing assets, therefore going above and beyond the levels of natural production. As a result of increased oil and gas production and the quick depletion of new fields, there are currently a significant number of matured oilfields. Hence, considering all these factors, there are various new opportunities for the key players in the market during the forecast period.
The geologic strata that generate oil and gas in several offshore places are irregular, which implies the sand that composes these formations is loose or loosely connected, similar to the beach sand. This loose sand may therefore find its way into the production pipework in the well or the production machinery on the surface. Sand production may cause equipment and pipelines to clog, degrade (similar to sandblasting), and corrode, all of which are very undesired outcomes. Since the inception of offshore oil and gas development, one of the major production issues addressed by engineers has been the elimination of sand output. Considering the aforementioned factors, the offshore segment in the global market for sand control tools is likely to grow throughout the forecast period.
Region-wise, the Middle East and Africa are considered to be the most lucrative market. Saudi Arabia contains oil and gas entrapped in sandstone with distinct features, such as low-to-moderate levels of permeability but a strong sanding propensity induced by unconsolidated rock beneath temperature and pressure. The nation is one of the greatest markets for sand management systems in the world because of its extensive production of oil and gas and high inclination to sand. Therefore, it is anticipated that the market for sand control tools in the region would grow over the next few years as a result of factors including planned offshore E&P operations, particularly from the West African region.
Management or minimization of sand production during the production of petroleum is known as sand control. Tools used during these operations are sand control tools. In oil and gas operations, sand production can cause erosion and wear of equipment which may result in downtime and expensive repairs.
Hence sand controls tools play significant role in oil & gas production. Sand control system can be either passive sand control or active sand control. Passive sand control is a non- intrusive method while active sand control is an intrusive one which involves different kind of operations with multiple tools.
Sand management and control is a major concern for oil and gas industry, as the resources are challenging. Various tools or number of methods are applied for sand control of which inflow control devices are very incredible.
Conventionally used for inflow balancing, inflow control devices (ICD) are now also deployed to effectively assist in the sand control operation. ICDs are considered a proven addition to the optimization of reservoir and offer cost-effective designs.
Sand control tools are used for advanced sand control are widely used in oil and gas industry to enhance production. Oil & gas industry requires some form of sand control tools/systems for economic production.
Increasing oil and gas exploration activities all over the world is anticipated to drive the sand control tools market in the coming years. In addition, oil and gas industry operators are finding improved means of smart working and costs reduction which is anticipated to positively impact the market growth.
Primary method or tools used for sand control operations are gravel packs, which requires conventional rigs and are expensive. This factor can have an adverse impact on the growth of global sand control tools market. A number of newer technology which keep sand in place without unduly restricting productivity have taken over traditional completion methods.
Manufacturers operating in the sand control tools market are greatly emphasizing on extending production by conjunction of ICDs with sand screen technologies. This type of solution which is prominently used in Middle East and North Sea is gaining recognition all over the world.
In Asia Pacific, oil and gas exploration activities in countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia as well as Australia is expected to create significant demand for sand control tools in the coming years. Japan is estimated to witness steady growth during the forecast period. North America and Latin America are anticipated to witness moderate growth in the global sand control tools market.
Whereas tremendously increasing oil and gas exploration activities in countries such as Nigeria, U.A.E. and Saudi Arabia which are the biggest exporter of oil and gas in Middle East and Africa are estimated to create higher demand for sand control tools in the forecast period.
Europe is anticipated to witness steady growth in the sand control tools market. The new oil and gas exploration activities in South East Asian countries such as Thailand and Indonesia will drive the sand control tools market.
