The hydraulic fracturing market is projected to reach USD 50.2 billion by 2026 from an estimated USD 34.8 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period. Increasing shale exploration and production activities globally and growing demand for hydraulic fracturing technology with increasing requirement for energy is the main driver for the hydraulic fracturing market. Capability of foams of providing waterless fracking are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the hydraulic fracturing market during the forecast period
“The horizontal segment, by well type, is expected to be the largest and the fastest-growing market from 2021 to 2026”
The well type segment is categorized as horizontal well and vertical well. The horizontal well segment is expected to dominate the global hydraulic fracturing market owing to increasing horizontal directional drilling activities to optimize production from wells. Although drilling and operating horizontal wells are expensive when compared to vertical wells, they are preferred due to their efficiency in increasing oil field production and their ability to access subsurface reservoirs that are not directly accessible from above.
“The shale gas segment, by application, is expected to be the fastest-growing market from 2021 to 2026”
The shale gas segment is expected to be the fastest-growing application segment during the forecast period. Shale gas is referred to as natural gas that is trapped within shale formations. Shales are fine-grained sedimentary rocks that can be rich sources of petroleum and natural gas. Hydraulic fracturing is the process used to extract shale gas. There are a large number of shale reserves across the globe. According to the EIA, in total, there are 48 shale gas basins in 32 countries, containing almost 70 shale gas formations. Thus, increasing exploration activities in these reserves is driving the market
“North America: The largest and the fastest-growing region in the hydraulic fracturing market.”
North America is expected to dominate the global hydraulic fracturing market between 2021–2026. The region has the largest shale reserves, which makes it a lucrative market for drilling activities and for oilfield service providers. The region has the largest shale reserves, which makes it a lucrative market for drilling activities and for oilfield service providers. According to the US Energy Information Administration, in 2017, the region had 307.9 trillion cubic feet of shale reserves, out of which only 18.6 trillion cubic feet have been produced in the same year. Tight oil resources are largely found in a belt ranging from central Alberta to southern Texas. The Permian (largely in West Texas), the Bakken (North Dakota, Montana, Saskatchewan, Manitoba), and the Eagle Ford (South Texas) tight oil formations are the largest sources of tight oil production in North America.
