2014 Report on the International Artificial Lift Pumps Market - Forecasts to 2018
M2 - Mon Jun 16, 10:00AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/mg8wpc/global_artificial) has announced the addition of the "2014 Report on the International Artificial Lift Pumps Market - Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering. An artificial lift pump is a system installed in oil wells to increase the pressure within the reservoir and encourage oil to travel to the surface. When there is insufficient natural force inside the well to push the oil to the surface, artificial lift pumps are used to pump out the oil. Globally, more than 70 percent of oil wells have lost the natural pressure inside them and are in their mature phase. Hence, they require artificial lift pumps to extract oil to meet the growing demands of the market. The analysts forecast the Global Artificial Lift Pumps market will grow at a CAGR of 9.08 percent over the period 2013-2018. The Global Artificial Lift Pumps market can be categorized into seven segments based on technology: electrical submerged pumps, gas lift pumps, hydraulic lift pumps, plunger lift pumps, progressive capacity pumps, and rod lift pumps The report has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. Key Topics Covered: 01. Executive Summary 02. List of Abbreviations 03. Scope of the Report 04. Market Research Methodology 05. Introduction 06. Market Landscape 07.
