The global oilfield chemicals market size reached US$ 23.9 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 32.6 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5% during 2023-2032. The growing demand for energy in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, rising employment of shale gas for generating electricity, and increasing adoption of drilling fluids for applying hydrostatic pressure represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Oilfield chemicals consists of fibers, suspension, clay control, biocides, polymers, rheology chemicals, surface modifiers, and fillers. These chemicals also comprise surfactants, acids, friction reducers, iron control agents, polymers, retarders, deformers, emulsifiers, and demulsifiers. They are effective in preventing unwanted microbial growth in oil and gas pipelines, which can cause gas sourcing, pipeline clogging, and microbial-induced corrosion of equipment and transportation pipes. Oilfield chemicals function as effective emulsion breakers and are used to separate crude oil, such as petroleum, from water. These chemicals restrict abrasive materials to cause hindrances in the pipelines and reduce friction in metal-to-metal contact and provide lubricity to the drill string in open holes of deviated wells. They are also employed to prevent the formation of insoluble calcium salts when the drilling fluid contacts formation minerals and saline formation water. Furthermore, as oilfield chemicals inhibit undesirable foaming and help in pH control, their demand is increasing around the world.
