"Global Oil Field Services is Expected to Become a $200 Billion Industry by 2015"
The global oil field services market has witnessed considerable growth in recent years due to an increase in the exploration and Production (E&P) activity and the growth in the activity in the offshore areas of the world. According to GBI Research, the global oil field services market amounted to about $140 billion in 2008. However, since the global economic slow down, the market has seen a negative growth, thereby leading to a decrease in the overall market size. According to GBI Research, the global oil field services market amounted to about $131 billion in 2009. Nonetheless, with increased E&P activity and increased demand for oil field services, the global market for oil field services is expected to increase in the future growing to about $200 billion by the end of the forecast period in 2015.
North America and the Middle East and Africa are the major regional markets for global oil field service providers. Both these markets account for more than half of the global oil field services market. The presence of huge reserves in onshore and offshore areas of these regions is the major driving factor for the dominance of these regions. This trend is expected to continue in the future due to the discovery of new resources and continued E&P activity in these regions. South and Central America and Asia Pacific are emerging markets for the oil field services industry.
The discovery of huge reserves, especially in the offshore areas in these regions is the key factor driving growth there. These two regions are expected to continue to increase their shares of the overall market in the years ahead.
The completion and production services market is a major part of the global oil field services market. Completion and production services account for close to 70% of the total oil field services industry due to the breadth of services in this sector. The exploration and evaluation services market is the smallest part of the overall oil field services market. Not surprisingly, revenues earned by the large integrated oil field services companies primarily come from drilling services and completion and production services.
