According to a new report by Univdatos, Offshore Drilling Market is expected to reach USD 63.91 Billion in 2030 by growing at a CAGR of 8.3%.

Key Highlights of the Report:

Ø The offshore drilling market is witnessing an exponential demand in recent times due to rapid increase in the exploration activities especially in deep and ultra-deep waters.

Ø Adverse impact of drilling the reserves on the environment and adoption of cleaner alternatives are restraining the offshore drilling market.

Ø Rising demand for natural gas and oil coupled with increasing investment to uncover hydrocarbon reserves is increasing the offshore drilling market.

The major factors propelling the market's growth are the rise in demand for natural gas and oil, global drilling, and well-intervention activities that stimulate market growth. Furthermore, as conventional onshore reserves deplete, offshore exploration and production have become essential to meet the world's rising energy consumption. Technological advancements, including advanced drilling rigs, subsea production systems, and enhanced oil recovery techniques, have enabled more efficient, safer, and economically viable offshore operations, even in harsh environments like ultra-deep waters and remote locations. The market is also influenced by fluctuations in oil and gas prices, with higher prices making offshore projects more profitable and attractive for investments.

According to SLB, in 2023, offshore oil and gas exploration spending will increase by more than 20% globally. Moreover, according to Schlumberger, between 2022 and 2025, more than $500 million in investments are expected to be made, a 90% increase over the 2016-2019 period.

Geopolitical factors and energy security concerns have also fueled the growth of the offshore drilling market. Many countries are pursuing offshore exploration and production activities to reduce their reliance on imported energy sources and achieve greater energy independence. The need to secure energy supply routes and assert regional influence has driven some nations to establish a presence in strategic offshore areas.

However, the market faces several restraining factors, including environmental concerns and the risks associated with offshore operations, such as oil spills and the impact on marine ecosystems. Stringent environmental regulations and heightened public scrutiny have led to increased operational costs and compliance requirements. Additionally, volatile oil and gas prices, economic uncertainties, and geopolitical tensions can significantly impact the offshore drilling market, leading to a slowdown in exploration and production activities.

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), offshore oil and gas production accounted for nearly 30% of the global supply in 2021.

Due to the growing use of natural gas as a fuel in the previous ten years, the world's natural gas consumption has notably increased. Additionally, the demand for natural gas is anticipated to increase over the forecast period due to the rise in fuel consumption from developing economies like China and India. In 2040, the use of natural gas will increase by 45%, with the power sector offering growth potential. The rising global demand for oil and natural gas will fuel the expansion of oil and gas E&P activities. The reserves in offshore wells are greater than those in onshore wells despite the higher costs associated with producing oil and gas offshore. These enormous reserves will likely be utilized and produced by upstream companies. Moreover, this trend can be observed in regions like the Gulf of Mexico, where offshore drilling operations have been a key source of oil and gas production for decades. The Gulf's strategic location and rich reserves have made it a hotspot for energy companies seeking to meet the increasing global demand for natural gas and oil. As technologies advance and companies explore deeper waters, the Gulf of Mexico remains a significant contributor to the global offshore drilling market. These factors are anticipated to increase offshore drilling demand in the coming years.

According to Oxford Institute of Energy Studies, Global gas demand growth between 2021 and 2030 is projected at some 400 bcm, equating to around 10 per cent in total or 1 per cent per annum. China and the Middle East account for over 80 per cent of the growth.
