Global Artificial Lift Pumps Market 2015-2019 with Baker Hughes, GE Energy, Schlumberger & Weatherford International Dominating
M2 - Fri Apr 24, 3:10AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tbrjsz/global_artificial) has announced the addition of the "Global Artificial Lift Pumps Market 2015-2019" report to their offering. The Global Artificial Lift Pump market to grow at a CAGR of 8.95% over the period 2015-2019 Artificial lift pumps are used in oil wells to increase the pressure within the reservoir and encourage oil to move to the surface. When the natural force of the well is not strong enough to push the oil to the surface, an artificial lift pump is employed. Globally, more than 70 percent of oil wells have lost natural pressure and are in their mature phase. Advances in technologies are the important trend emerging in the market. Incorporation of new technology in artificial lift pumps through continuous R&D will help the market to grow in the future. New technologies such as WRESP and High GLR ESP are field tested to overcome existing defects in artificial lift pumps. According to the report, need for high crude oil production from existing fields is one key factor driving the market. Crude oil is one of the important energy resources. Hence, rapid urbanization and industrialization in developing countries have resulted in need for more energy sources. Demand for crude oil is rising every year leading to increased production. Further, the report states that deferment of investment decisions is one key challenge hindering market growth. The price of oil has nearly halved in 2014 leading to reduced revenues and inventory write-off forcing oil exploration companies to reduce and postpone major investment decisions The Global Artificial Lift Pumps market includes the following major product segments: ESP Systems, Rod Lift Systems, PCP Systems, Gas Lift Systems, Plunger Lift Systems, Hydraulic Lift Systems, and Others.

Waste management plays an important role in the process of drilling, as drilling fluid circulates drill cuttings from the wellbore and also cools the drill bit. It also reduces the friction inside the well bore and helps in managing the fluid and cuttings during and after their return. Finally, when the drilling is completed, the cuttings and fluids are further processed and disposed of to eliminate or minimize any harmful effects on the environment. This report segments the Middle East Drilling Services Market on the basis of services (solids control, containment & handling, and treatment & disposal), applications (onshore & offshore), and countries (Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi). The Oman market held the largest share of 32% of the ME Drilling Waste Management market in 2013. Qatar is estimated to register the highest CAGR of 6.2% between 2014 and 2019 during the forecast period. The market is growing due to the substantial amount of E&P activity in the offshore regions of Middle East. Private players are investing more in this region to avail higher returns which is acting as a growth factor for the oil & gas industry. This, in turn, boosts the market for drilling waste management services as well. The drilling waste management market analyzed in this report is based on the waste management hierarchy, that is, solids control, containment & handling, and treatment & disposal. The drilling waste management market has been segmented into five countries, namely Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. The market has been further segmented on the basis of services for waste management in the drilling activities, and has been split on the basis of applications (onshore & offshore).

Global Artificial Lift Pumps Market 2015-2019 with Baker Hughes, GE Energy, Schlumberger & Weatherford International Dominating
M2 - Fri Apr 24, 3:10AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tbrjsz/global_artificial) has announced the addition of the "Global Artificial Lift Pumps Market 2015-2019" report to their offering. The Global Artificial Lift Pump market to grow at a CAGR of 8.95% over the period 2015-2019 Artificial lift pumps are used in oil wells to increase the pressure within the reservoir and encourage oil to move to the surface. When the natural force of the well is not strong enough to push the oil to the surface, an artificial lift pump is employed. Globally, more than 70 percent of oil wells have lost natural pressure and are in their mature phase. Advances in technologies are the important trend emerging in the market. Incorporation of new technology in artificial lift pumps through continuous R&D will help the market to grow in the future. New technologies such as WRESP and High GLR ESP are field tested to overcome existing defects in artificial lift pumps. According to the report, need for high crude oil production from existing fields is one key factor driving the market. Crude oil is one of the important energy resources. Hence, rapid urbanization and industrialization in developing countries have resulted in need for more energy sources. Demand for crude oil is rising every year leading to increased production. Further, the report states that deferment of investment decisions is one key challenge hindering market growth. The price of oil has nearly halved in 2014 leading to reduced revenues and inventory write-off forcing oil exploration companies to reduce and postpone major investment decisions The Global Artificial Lift Pumps market includes the following major product segments: ESP Systems, Rod Lift Systems, PCP Systems, Gas Lift Systems, Plunger Lift Systems, Hydraulic Lift Systems, and Others.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d9c4s6/middle_east) has announced the addition of the "Middle East Drilling Waste Management Market by Service (Solid Control, Containment & Handling, Treatment & Disposal), by Application (Onshore, Offshore ), by Country - Analysis and Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. Waste management plays an important role in the process of drilling, as drilling fluid circulates drill cuttings from the wellbore and also cools the drill bit. It also reduces the friction inside the well bore and helps in managing the fluid and cuttings during and after their return. Finally, when the drilling is completed, the cuttings and fluids are further processed and disposed of to eliminate or minimize any harmful effects on the environment. This report segments the Middle East Drilling Services Market on the basis of services (solids control, containment & handling, and treatment & disposal), applications (onshore & offshore), and countries (Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi). The Oman market held the largest share of 32% of the ME Drilling Waste Management market in 2013. Qatar is estimated to register the highest CAGR of 6.2% between 2014 and 2019 during the forecast period. The market is growing due to the substantial amount of E&P activity in the offshore regions of Middle East. Private players are investing more in this region to avail higher returns which is acting as a growth factor for the oil & gas industry. This, in turn, boosts the market for drilling waste management services as well. The drilling waste management market analyzed in this report is based on the waste management hierarchy, that is, solids control, containment & handling, and treatment & disposal. The drilling waste management market has been segmented into five countries, namely Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. The market has been further segmented on the basis of services for waste management in the drilling activities, and has been split on the basis of applications (onshore & offshore).
