Why Are E&P Companies Using Artificial Lifts?

Artificial lift is used in oil wells to increase pressure within the reservoir to bring oil to the surface. This machine is deployed to recover more production from oil reservoirs where the natural drive energy is very weak. The surging number of mature oil and gas fields will fuel the artificial lift market at a CAGR of 5.3% during forecast period. According to P&S Intelligence, the market was valued at $8,010.8 million in 2017 and it is projected to reach $10,883.1 million revenue by 2023.



Moreover, the rising availability of recoverable shale gas will also lead to the large-scale deployment of artificial lifts at the shale gas reserves. Artificial lifting methods are utilized in horizontal shale gas-producing wells to lift the accumulated fluids and aid in sustaining the performance of the well. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), shale gas reserves are found in about 30 states of the country. At present, the Marcellus shale play in the Appalachian Basin is the largest source of natural gas from shale. This basin spans over Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania.

Globally, North America dominated the artificial lift market in the recent past and it is projected to retain its dominance in the forecast years. This can be ascribed to the presence of several artificial lift manufacturers in the region and the existence of numerous mature oil fields and shale gas reserves in the U.S. For instance, the total production of natural gas in the U.S. increased by 9.8% from 2018 to 2019, as per the EIA.

In the coming years, North America and Europe will emerge as the largest consumers of artificial lifts, due to the growing focus on unconventional sources of natural gas and crude oil which require such devices in abundance, in the regions. Moreover, the presence of established manufacturers also supports the use of artificial lifts in these regions. Furthermore, Asia-Pacific (APAC) and Rest of the World (RoW) regions are also expected to witness the large-scale use of such devices in the forthcoming years, owing to the rising E&P activities, mounting shale gas production, and increasing technological advancements in artificial lift systems in the regions.

Thus, the mounting number of mature oil and gas reserves and the surging shift toward unconventional natural gas reserves will also boost the deployment of artificial lifting systems in the forthcoming years.

Solar Encapsulant Industry Set to Exhibit Huge Expansion in Future

Image
The widescale installation of photovoltaic (PV) modules, continuous research and development (R&D) in solar cell technologies, and advent of crystalline silicon solar technology are expected to drive the market for solar encapsulant at a CAGR of 28.4% during the forecast period (2018–2023). The market generated a revenue of $1,036.0 million in 2017 and it is projected to generate $4,555.4 million by 2023. Moreover, the escalating awareness among people regarding the benefits of the solar cell technologies will propel market growth in the coming years. One of the prominent trends currently being observed in the solar encapsulant market is the rising incorporation of thin-film solar cell technology. This is mainly credited to the fact that the conventionally used crystalline silicon solar technology-based solar modules have high production costs and fragile nature. In addition to this, the thin-film solar cell technology has lower costs than the crystalline silicon solar technology ...
