Perforating Gun Market

Perforating Gun Market: Introduction

Exploration and extraction of ‘Black Gold’ i.e., Oil is carried out by the perforating gun.

The oil and gas industry is highly volatile and among the key sectors which have a major impact on the world economy.

The demand for perforating gun is expected to increase exponentially due to the hasty investments in the fossil fuel industry.

The conventional oil reservoirs are depleting rigorously. However, the global demand for more oil has opened doors for the exploration and drilling of new holes in the crust.

The desire to be self sufficient and reduce the imports by the countries have ultimately created opportunities for the perforating gun market.

Perforating guns are designed to drill deeper inside the earth surface and create tunnel. The safety and reliability are the key points that drives the demand of this assembly.

While the global oil industry is facing the disturbances like army conflict and weather instability on many grounds, the key producers like NOV. Inc is working effortlessly.

They are focusing on minimizing the environmental impact and improve the efficiency of the perforating gun.

Another key player like Dynaenergetics is focusing on making the perforated gun more optimized and safer to operate by reducing the risks in the extraction of oil and gas.

Perforated gun solely serves the purpose of digging oil wells and increasing depth of the existing wells.

The demand of the perforated gun is directly related to the production of oil.

However, the volatile prices of the crude oil and limited availability of oil reserves is causing threat to the perforated gun market.

The oil and gas industry mainly involves the process of exploration, which includes several operations from searching of wells to drilling them.

The well pressure is divided into two categories, i.e., low pressure & high pressure. Despite of development in the recent technology, regular equipment fail to bear extreme temperature and pressure conditions of the reservoir.

Therefore, the perforation of the well requires special equipment that can sustain volatile environment of a reservoir.

Perforating gun is a specialized device used to penetrate in the oil & gas wells and to connect the path between well & reservoir during the process of production.

It is available in the market in several shapes & sizes and the diameter of the gun is decided by the limitation imposed by the surface equipment and the presence of wellbore restrictions.

As the productivity of the well totally depends on being perforated right (correctly oriented, deep and clean), perforating guns are optimized for complex geometry, reservoir and wellbore environment.

Perforating gun has the following characteristics – high pressure & temperature rating, high charge performance, minimum causing damage, minimum debris formation and low market cost.

Moreover, perforating gun is provided by the feature of multi-phasing, instant spot detection and variable shot densities, which can vary from 1 to 12 shots per foot.

Manufacturers customize perforated guns according to the reservoir conditions using special materials.

The stable growth in the global gross domestic product, stronger energy demand from the global consumers and the urge to stabilize oil & gas prices across the globe are the factors expected to drive the growth of the perforating gun market.

Perforating Gun Market: Dynamics

Increasing exploration activities in turn is expected to augment the demand for perforating guns over the forecast period.

Growing economies have been witnessing urbanization on a huge scale which will consequently result accelerate the demand for transportation, residential area, construction and energy resources.

In order to fulfill the demand for petrochemical & energy, perforation of new oil & gas reserves has become mandatory.

However, technological and environmental concerns related to the exploration activities such as remote, harsh and hostile locations accompanied by operational changes is the key challenge for the growth of the perforating gun market.

On the other hand, increasing inclination towards renewable source of energy is also expected to hamper the growth of the perforating gun global market over the forecast period.

Perforating Gun Market: Regional Outlook

Asia Pacific is expected to hold substantial share in the global perforating gun market and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR due to rapid urbanization and industrialization.

Moreover, increasing demand for energy in the growing economies, such as India and China, is expected to fuel the demand for perforating guns over the near future.

North America followed by the Middle East is estimated to show significant growth in the global perforating gun market over the forecast period.

Mexico, Canada and the U.S. are particularly investing in exploration of oil and gas reserves to achieve the path of self-sustainability.
