시추 유체 시장 : 시장 기회, 성장 요인, 업계 동향 분석 및 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Drilling Fluid Market was valued at USD 12.4 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5% to reach USD 20.1 billion by 2034.

Industry expansion is driven by rising environmental compliance requirements and an increased focus on operational efficiency and well integrity. Modern drilling operations are increasingly utilizing eco-friendly, high-performance fluid systems to enhance drilling outcomes while minimizing formation damage, supporting both sustainability objectives and operational efficiency. Drilling fluids, whether water-based, oil-based, or synthetic, are engineered chemical formulations used in oil and gas exploration to cool and lubricate the drill bit, transport cuttings to the surface, and maintain wellbore stability. Their role has evolved beyond basic circulation to a strategic tool for wellbore pressure control, performance optimization, and cost efficiency. Reusable and recyclable formulations have created additional economic advantages, reinforcing their position as critical assets in modern drilling operations.

The water-based mud segment accounted for a 65% share in 2024 and is projected to grow at 5% CAGR through 2034. Its adaptability and environmentally friendly nature make it the preferred choice for shallow and medium-depth wells. The emphasis on sustainable drilling practices and regulatory support for low-toxicity fluids will continue to drive adoption and market growth.

The onshore drilling fluid segment captured a 75.3% share in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 14 billion by 2034. Onshore operations favor cost-effective, environmentally safe fluids, fueling consistent demand due to the volume of land-based exploration projects. As countries increase domestic oil and gas production, well development expands, creating steady opportunities for drilling fluid suppliers and supporting market expansion.

U.S. Drilling Fluid Market held a 72% share in 2024, generating USD 4.3 billion. Regulatory compliance, combined with government incentives for greener fluids, has enhanced the market landscape. High demand for high-performance drilling fluids is being driven by a focus on domestic oil and gas production in prolific basins, ensuring continuous growth opportunities for suppliers.

Key players in the Global Drilling Fluid Market include Stellar Drilling Fluids, Eco Drilling Fluids, Baker Hughes, Universal Performance Chemicals, Di-Corp, INEOS, Newpark Drilling Fluids, Halliburton, BCS Fluids, Cargill, Gumpro Drilling Fluids, Tetra Technologies, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, CES Energy Solutions Corp, AES Drilling Fluids, Ingevity, Supreme Drilling Fluid Chemicals, and SumiSaujana. Companies in the Drilling Fluid Market are prioritizing innovation to develop environmentally friendly and high-performance fluid formulations. Investment in research and development ensures that fluids meet evolving regulatory standards while enhancing wellbore stability and drilling efficiency. Strategic partnerships with drilling contractors, service providers, and oilfield operators expand market access and strengthen supply chains. Firms are leveraging reusable and recyclable fluid technologies to reduce operational costs and appeal to sustainability-focused clients. Geographic expansion into high-growth regions ensures access to emerging drilling projects.
