This has led to a surge in the production of oilfield chemicals, thus propelling the global oilfield chemicals market. Additionally, the prevalence large amount of shale gas reserves and the soaring production of shale gas have contributed to an expansion of oilfield chemicals market.

Moreover, usage of the oilfield chemicals in various applications such as production, improved oil recovery, cementing and drilling, and well stimulation has fuelled the markets growth. Further, an increasing demand for petroleum and natural has expedited the growth of global oilfield chemicals market.

Supply-demand imbalance and environmental concerns may hinder the growth of global oilfield chemicals market. However, technological innovations and a rise in production of eco-friendly oilfield chemicals will spur the oilfield chemicals markets growth. In addition to this, numerous are engaging in research and development activities to enhance the performance of oilfield chemicals, thus facilitating an expansion in the market.

Regions with Declining Oil Production to Present Key Growth Opportunities

Regions with declining oil production present a major growth opportunity for oilfield chemicals market as they highly rely on oilfield chemicals for their production activities. For example, the producers in the U.S. are increasingly using oilfield chemicals to keep up with the growing demand. In addition to this, a huge investment in the energy sector by India has also presented significant growth opportunities for the market.

The global demand for unconventional energy sources has led to a large scale production of crude oil, thereby creating many opportunities for the global oilfield chemicals market. The Middle East is one of the largest producers of crude oil and the market in this region is expected to grow exponentially during the forecast period. Additionally, an increase in horizontal drilling activities has strengthened the growth ground for the oilfield chemicals market.
