The well completion equipment and services market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of well completion equipment and services has seen significant growth lately. With an increase from $10.59 billion in 2024 to $11.35 billion in 2025, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) stands at 7.2%. Factors contributing to this growth over the historic period include oil demand, the revolution of hydraulic fracturing, deepwater exploration, market fluctuations, and geopolitical influences.
The Well Completion Equipment And Services market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the impending years, robust growth is anticipated in the market size of well completion equipment and services. This market is projected to escalate to $15.26 billion by 2029, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%.
The expansion in the projected period is due to factors such as variety in well architectures, data-centric decision making, remote management and surveillance, emphasis on well integrity, geopolitical shifts, and reservoir optimization. The major trends during this forecast period encompass the boom in shale gas and tight oil, environmental apprehensions, pursuit of efficiency and cost optimization, exploration in deepwater and ultra-deepwater regions, and advancements in automation and digitalization in drilling.
The global well-completion equipment and services market is set to expand due to the increasing demand for oil and gas exploration worldwide. The search and extraction of oil and gas from land and under the oceans involves the use of cutting-edge well-completion equipment. This equipment is crucial for drilling under the challenging conditions of deep water to satisfy energy needs. Well-completion equipment and services are essential in setting up machinery for the extraction of crude oil from deep beneath the earth in response to international demand for oil and gas. For example, the US Energy Information Administration documented in November 2023 an increase in U.S. crude oil production to 12.4 million b/d in 2023, up from an all-time high of 11.7 million b/d in 2022. Additionally, in September 2022, the U.S. hit a record high in natural gas consumption, averaging 86.6 billion cubic feet per day, a significant increase compared to the previous year. As a result, the accelerating demand for oil and gas exploration worldwide is driving the growth of the well-completion equipment and services market.
