Market Overview:
The global hydraulic fracturing proppants market is expected to grow from USD 5.02 billion in 2018 to USD 10.06 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the hydraulic fracturing proppants market can be attributed to the increasing demand for shale gas and tight gas across the globe. Moreover, the growing exploration and production activities in unconventional reserves are also fueling the growth of the hydraulic fracturing proppants market.
Product Definition:
A proppant is a material that is used to keep a hydraulic fracture open after it has been created.
Frac Sand Proppant:
The global fracture sand proppant market size was valued at USD 1.91 billion in 2016 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The increasing use of fracture sand proppants in hydraulic fracturing operations is one of the major factors driving growth globally.
Resin-coated Proppant:
Resin-coated proppant is a type of proppant used in hydraulic fracturing to keep the fractures open and allow fluid to flow through them. The resin-coated proppants are coated with polyurethane, which has excellent abrasion resistance and high impact strength. They are used as an alternative to sand or stone for preventing rock jams during the drilling process.
Application Insights:
On the basis of application, shale gas led the market in 2017 and is projected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The growing use of hydraulic fracturing techniques for shale gas extraction has resulted in high demand for proppant from various applications such as shale oil &gas, natural gas liquids (NGL), tight gas and coal bed methane.
The others segment includes lignite coal bed methane, tight oil and deepwater horizon. The increasing exploration activities for unconventional sources such astight oil &shalegas across various regions are expected to drive product demand over the forecast period. In addition, increasing drilling activities for deepwater horizon are likely to propel market growth during this period.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The U.S., which is at the forefront of this industry, holds a significant share owing to its extensive use of hydraulic fracturing for drilling oil and gas wells. Hydraulic fracturing involves the injection of water mixed with chemicals under high pressure into shale rock formations to release natural gas from the formation.
The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing government spending on unconventional hydrocarbon resources such as shale and tight sands, which are both forms of coal-derived hydrocarbon reserves located deep underground.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for hydraulic fracturing proppants from the oil and gas industry as a result of increasing shale gas production across the globe.
- Rising investments in hydraulic fracturing by oil and gas companies to increase their production capacity.
- Growing use of unconventional resources such as shale gas, which requires more proppants than conventional resources.
- Technological advancements in hydraulic fracturing that are resulting in increased use of proppants per well drilled .
