Global Offshore Drilling Rigs Market Overview
Offshore drilling rigs market accounted for USD 11092.5 Million in 2020 and is estimated to be USD 26825.5 Million by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 9.3%.
An offshore drilling rig is also known as offshore platform or oil platform. Offshore drilling rig is a large structural facility for well drilling in order to explore, extract, store as well as process natural gas and petroleum which lies in rock formations beneath the seabed. An offshore drilling rig is fixed to ocean floor and it may consist of an artificial island or float. The drill operates through a hole in the hull. Drill ships can pilot to the drill site and then use a combination of anchors and propellers to correct for drift as the rig drills for oil. They can operate in deep water conditions. Semisubmersibles float on the surface of the ocean on top of huge, submerged pontoons. Depending on the terrain, you can choose between different types of drilling rigs: rotary drilling rigs, percussion drilling rigs, down the hole drilling rigs, top hammer drilling rigs, etc.
Global Offshore Drilling Rigs Market Drivers & Restraints
Rising demand oil across the globe
Increasing technological advancements in offshore drilling rig in order to face harsh environment, to meet increasing demand for oil and gas, and strict regulations against onshore drilling projects are some among the major factors propelling growth of the global market. Offshore natural oil and gas reservoirs have longer lifespan than onshore which is creating interest in the manufacturers to improve its production. This is propelling growth of the global offshore drilling rigs market. Government initiatives and bond with other countries on the export and import of oil is another driving factor for the growth of the target market. Increasing development in the technology of offshore drilling to meet the enormous demand for hydrocarbons is expected to increase the growth of offshore drilling rigs.
However, the adverse of such activities on the environment and unbalancing the natural process of the oceans, are the major factor hampering the growth of the target market.
