The Europe offshore oil and gas pipes, fittings, and flanges market is expected to grow from US$ 2.25 billion in 2022 to US$ 3.55 billion by 2030. It is estimated to record a CAGR of 5.8% from 2022 to 2030.
Various countries are investing in efforts to rejuvenate their existing oil resources to boost domestic oil production and decrease their dependence on oil imports. Thus, the projected expansion of their oil & gas operations is anticipated to offer promising growth opportunities for the offshore oil & gas pipes, fittings, and flanges market players in the coming years.
Europe has a strong capacity for oil & gas production and exporting of oil & gas to different parts of the world. Norway, the UK, and Denmark are the major oil & gas producers in Europe, with significant offshore reserves in the North Sea. Other countries such as the Netherlands, Germany, and Italy also have small-scale oil & gas production. According to the EIA, the UK generated 4.9 quadrillion British thermal units (quads) of energy in 2020 and used 6.8 quads of energy. Norway is the third-largest natural gas exporter in the world. Also, in 2022, Norway produced 2.0% of the world's oil production, which shows that the country plays an important role in the global oil & gas market.
Norway has substantial offshore oil & gas reserves in the North and Norwegian Seas. The exploration and production activities in these areas have been highly successful, contributing to the industry's growth. Norwegian companies have been at the forefront of developing advanced technologies for offshore oil & gas exploration and production. Thus, the constant development in the oil & gas industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the offshore oil & gas pipes, fittings, and flanges market in the coming years.
Efforts to Improve Oil Recovery Operations to Reduce Dependency on Oil & Gas Imports Drive Europe Offshore Oil and Gas Pipes, Fittings, and Flanges Market
The steam injection method has been exploited commercially over recent decades to improve recovery from conventional heavy oil reservoirs in their later stages of development. The injected steam increases the overall pressure of an offshore oil reservoir, which helps improve the mobility ratio of crude oil and allows it to flow efficiently. As a result, the enhanced oil recovery methods help revitalize extraction processes in existing offshore oil wells.Various countries are investing in efforts to rejuvenate their existing oil resources to boost domestic oil production and decrease their dependence on oil imports. Thus, the projected expansion of their oil & gas operations is anticipated to offer promising growth opportunities for the offshore oil & gas pipes, fittings, and flanges market players in the coming years.
Europe Offshore Oil and Gas Pipes, Fittings, and Flanges Market Overview
Europe has a comparatively lesser number of offshore rigs compared to other regions. For instance, by the end of 2022, Europe had ~75 total number of offshore rigs compared to 103 rigs in 2021. The overall number of rigs (onshore and offshore) is very low across the region, which shows a lesser dominance of Europe over other regions.Europe has a strong capacity for oil & gas production and exporting of oil & gas to different parts of the world.
