Global Drilling Waste Management Market 2014-2018: Baker Hughes Inc., Halliburton Co., Schlumberger Ltd., Scomi Group Bhd & Weatherford International Ltd Dominates
M2 - Thu May 15, 8:57AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/s525kn/global_drilling) has announced the addition of the "Global Drilling Waste Management Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The Global Drilling Waste Management market will grow at a CAGR of 13% to 2018 Drilling waste management helps reduce the environmental impact of oil and gas drilling. Drilling waste management focuses on both environmental protection and cost-effectiveness by recycling the usable waste from drilling. The first step of drilling waste management is to separate solid waste from drilling fluids. After the solid waste has been removed from drilling fluids then a variety of technologies and practices can be used to manage the waste generated from drilling. Over the years, there has been a tremendous increase in technological advancements that has led to the reduction of waste generated from drilling. These technological advancements include cuttings slurrification and re-injection, de-watering, water treatment, vacuum collection, and cuttings drying. Also, market vendors are increasing their investments in R&D, which in turn is reducing the time in waste collection, treatment, and disposal. Therefore, rapid technological advancements are expected to propel the growth of the Global Drilling Waste Management market during the forecast period. According to the report, the growth of the Global Drilling Waste Management market is driven by several factors, including increasing concerns over the environment. An increase in drilling activities worldwide has raised environmental concerns; therefore, there is a rise in the adoption of various waste management services. This is expected to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period. Further, the report states that drilling waste management requires high investments for the purchase of facilities and heavy equipment, which increases the overall cost of the drilling waste project. This could have a negative impact on the market growth rate during the forecast period.
