Packer Type (Steel Fortified, Wire Line, Sliding-end, Fixed-end)
The sliding-end segment is poised to hold 38% share of the global inflatable packers market during the forecast period. The segment’s growth is attributable to high-pressure applications. The sliding-end packer is also used for open boreholes where the pressure difference between the lower and upper limit of the packer ranges between 100-5,000 psi. The sliding-end packer segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The fixed packer system consists of fully reinforced elements, reinforced elements, and non-reinforced elements. Also, sliding-end packers are designed with a movable end, allowing them to be moved easily within the wellbore and driving the segment’s growth.
