Hydraulic Fracturing Market Is Expected To Reach USD 81.10 Billion By 2024: By Grand View Research, Inc.

The global hydraulic fracturing market is expected to reach USD 81.10 billion by 2024, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing E&P companies’ concern towards declining production rates in conventional hydrocarbon reserves along with shifting focus towards developing unconventional oil & gas blocks globally is anticipated to drive the market growth.

Favorable initiatives by the U.S. and Chinese government in the form of financial aids, tax incentives and easy provision of FDI in the hydrocarbon sector are estimated to steer the industry expansion over the next few years. Several bans, moratoriums and pubic concerns regarding environmental impacts of the technology particularly in counties including France, Tunisia, Bulgaria, Romania, and South Africa are expected to remain key challenges for the industry participants over the forecast period.

Plug & perf technology dominated the global hydraulic fracturing market accounting for over 80% of the total revenue in 2015. The technique enables multistage fracking in cased holes and is widely used in tight oil and shale completions particularly in the U.S.
