Application (onshore, offshore)
Based on application, the onshore segment is expected to dominate the oilwell spacer fluids market growing at a CAGR of 70% during the projected period. An important part of oil and gas exploration and production activities is offshore exploration and production activities. Investments in gas and LNG are expected to reach USD 171 billion by 2024, an increase of USD 131 billion from 2021. The operational costs for oil and gas exploration and production activities are lower than those of offshore E&P because onshore operations require less advanced technologies in drilling. In the case of onshore oil and gas exploration and production, this has led to increased investment. The market for oilwell spacer fluids will grow during the forecast period as a result of this increase in investments. The market will be driven by rising activity in gas and oil drilling. Less advanced technologies, which are more cost-effective than offshore, are needed for offshore activities. This has led to increased investment in the onshore sector and is projected to have a dominant position in the market over the coming years.
Type (water-based, oil-based)
Based on type, the water-based segment is predicted to dominate the oilwell spacer fluids market by growing at a CAGR of 60% by the end of 2036. The type of water-based spacer fluid which is preferred for its cost-effectiveness and compatibility with a variety of drilling mud systems, is water-based spacer fluids. The fluids are suitable for the displacement of mud and their compatibility with cement slurries is excellent. Oil and gas companies are facing increasing pressure to reduce their environmental impact. Water-based spacer fluids are a more environmentally friendly alternative to oil-based spacer fluids, as they are less toxic and biodegradable.
