Lower Cost and Favorable Operating Conditions to
Boost Onshore Activities
The global market has been segregated on the basis
of application as offshore and onshore. Due to ease in the transportation,
hydraulic workover unit is suitable for both offshore as well as onshore applications.
However, these units find a wide of applications in the onshore activities. Operating
conditions of onshore sites are more favorable when compared with offshore
sites. Additionally, recovery of global crude oil prices has upsurge the number
of onshore oil and gas E&P activities. On the basis of installation, the
global hydraulic workover unit market has been segmented into skid workover
rigs and trailer mounted workover rigs.
Investments in Oil & Gas Exploration to help North
America Lead the Hydraulic Workover Unit Market
North America is anticipated to grab a
significant market share in the coming years. The growth is attributed to surge
in the investments in shale oil and gas exploration, particularly in the US. In
addition, it has been observed that the US government has announced plans to initiate
oil and gas exploration and production activities at all offshore regions along
the coasts. This initiative is expected to offer growth opportunities for the
market in North America.
Key Participants to have a Strong Foothold in the
Hydraulic Workover Unit Market
The market participants operating in the global hydraulic
workover unit market include UMW Oil & Gas Corporation Berhad, Key Energy
Services, Superior Energy Services,
Basic Energy Services, Cudd Energy Services, Precision
Drilling Corporation, Halliburton Company, Nabors Industries, Archer
Limited, CEEM FZE, and High
Arctic Energy Services. Key players are taking up various strategies such as mergers
and acquisitions and technological advancements in order to expand their
production and attain greater revenue.
Rise in the Number of Oil and Gas Explorations to
Play a Major Role
Rising investments in infrastructure developments
for shale oil and gas is a major driver in the global hydraulic workover unit
market. It has been observed that the number of explorations has been rising, particularly
in the Arctic and the Middle East region. This may open up new avenues for the
hydraulic workover unit market. Also, hydraulic workover units play an
essential role during the intervention activities of aging oil and gas wells. This
factor may raise the demand for hydraulic workover units in the coming years.
High efficiency, compact design, controlled
operation, and versatility are some of the key features of the hydraulic
workover unit, which further increases its adoption in both offshore and
onshore activities. On the other hand, strict regulations on environment may
act as a hurdle in the growth of the hydraulic workover unit market. Oil spills
are also expected to hamper the growth during the forecast period. In addition,
dearth of skilled workforce as well as long rig-up time may curb the growth of
the market in the forthcoming years. Also, transportation issues owing to its
heavy weight are also acting as a major challenge.
