Global Oilfield Chemicals Market is estimated to amass around US $35.08 billion by the year 2026, according to the latest research available at Market Study Report, report provides extensively data on market share, growth, trends and forecasts for the period 2017-2026.
 

As per the latest report, the current moderate increase, as well as the expected hike in the prices of crude oil, would elevate the demand for oilfield chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing, well drilling & completion, and EOR operations. The revival of well drilling operations in existing wells due to the augmented crude oil prices, and increased drilling of unconventional wells for pilot projects and production in the North Sea and North American regions are likely to enhance the demand for these products.
 

The advanced technologies that are presently deployed for the development of shale gas & tight oil resources have emerged as a significant trend over the recent years. This includes the current trend of fracturing fluids for slick water and high-performance drilling mud chemicals.
 

The development of various chemical formulations addressing environmental concerns are likely to significantly impact the global market, augmenting the demand for high-quality, environment-friendly chemicals, including the less toxic biocides and biodegradable shale inhibitors. Offshore operations are expected to contribute to the market growth, and the need for environmentally compatible chemicals & fluids would dominate the offshore environments.
 

According to the market researchers, polymers and acids that are used in stimulation chemicals would record higher growth as a result of the continuous expansion of the well stimulation technologies. Clays and other commodities utilized in drilling fluids are however predicted to decline moderately over the forecast timeline.
