Rotary Steerable System Market Segmentation:

Application Segment Analysis

The onshore rotary steerable system market is estimated to gain the largest revenue share of about 60% in the year 2035. The higher number of oil rigs present on the land and the extraction of crude oil from onshore rigs and other oilfield services will boost the segment growth. Onshore wells require drilling extended-reach sections to access remote or offshore. A rotary steerable system enables longer horizontal section drilling. The majority of the world's oil rigs are on land. There were around 1,309 operational onshore oil rigs at the end of 2021. Moreover, it is expected that by 2025, around 72 percent of the crude oil produced globally will be produced onshore.
