Hydraulic Workover Unit Global Market Report 2024

The hydraulic workover unit market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $10.5 billion in 2023 to $11.5 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5%. The increase observed in the historical period can be attributed to increased oil and gas exploration activities, cost-effective well interventions, rigless operations, routine well maintenance, and workover and completion operations.

The hydraulic workover unit market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $16.47 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The expansion anticipated in the forecast period can be linked to increasing focus on well intervention, environmental considerations, global energy demand, unconventional resource development, and asset lifecycle management. Major trends projected for the forecast period encompass modular hydraulic workover units, digital technologies for monitoring and control, rigless interventions and light well servicing, skid-mounted and trailer-mounted units, and industry collaboration and partnerships.

The hydraulic workover unit market is expected to grow as a result of the increasing shale gas production. Shale gas, a versatile source of natural gas, is driving the demand for hydraulic workover units in the upstream oil and gas industry. The United States Energy Information Administration predicts a significant increase in shale gas production from 27.90 trillion cubic feet in 2021 to 32.50 trillion cubic feet by 2025, highlighting the positive outlook for the hydraulic workover unit market.

The hydraulic workover unit market is anticipated to experience growth due to the increasing well services in crude oil and natural gas drilling activity. Well services in crude oil and natural gas drilling involve specialized operations to enhance efficiency and productivity. Hydraulic workover units offer a flexible and cost-effective solution for addressing wellbore challenges and optimizing production. The Energy Information Administration reported an increase in active well service rig count from 738 in 2020 to 949 in 2021, indicating growing demand for hydraulic workover units.

Premier companies in the hydraulic workover unit market are introducing autonomous well intervention systems to enhance profitability. Expro, a US-based energy services provider, launched Galea in November 2021, representing an autonomous well intervention system designed to perform well intervention operations without direct human involvement. Galea revolutionizes slickline operations with fully autonomous deployment for various well tasks, improving production efficiency, reducing operating costs, and minimizing environmental impact.

Premier companies in the hydraulic workover unit market are launching new hydraulic rigs to increase profitability. Hydraulic Workover Unit relies on a hydraulic rig, which is a set of hydraulic components, to perform various tasks in the oil and gas industry. Megha Engineering and Infrastructures Limited (MEIL), an India-based diversified corporation, launched indigenous hydraulic rigs in April 2021. These drilling rigs incorporate cutting-edge hydraulic technology with a robust 1500 HP capacity, enabling successful drilling to depths of up to 4000 meters.

In November 2021, VAALCO Energy Inc., a US-based hydrocarbon exploration company, acquired two hydraulic workovers at Etame field offshore Gabon, increasing the company's oil production capability to approximately 1,050 gross barrels of crude oil per day.
