세계의 비전통 가스 시장 : 유형별, 용도별, 지역별(2025-2033년)

The global unconventional gas market size reached USD 217.5 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 387.8 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3% during 2025-2033. The escalating demand for higher power generation to cater to the global energy demand, rapid depletion of fossil fuels, and continual technological advancements in various drilling techniques represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Unconventional gas is a clean energy source, which is obtained from shale rock, coal seams, and low-permeability rocks with significant amounts of permeability and porosity when compared to conventional reservoir gas. The composition of unconventional gas can include natural gas liquids, carbon dioxide at a low or high concentration, as well as sulfur at a high or low concentration. By drilling horizontal directional wells, hydrocarbons can be extracted using high pressure water, sand, and chemicals to fracture rock and release them. Alternatively, unconventional gas can be obtained by hydraulic fracturing, during which highly pressurized liquid is pumped into the rock to crack it. Typically, horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing are often employed to extract unconventional gas. As a result of their clean burning characteristics, these gases are used for power generation, in the home sector as an energy source, and in the commercial sector for water heating, space heating, and cooling.

Unconventional Gas Market Trends:

The escalating demand for higher power generation to cater to the augmenting energy demand across the globe is a significant factor driving the growth of the market. This can be attributed to the rapid depletion of fossil fuels, along with their increasing price. In line with this, a considerable rise in oil and gas exploration activities is providing an impetus to the market. Moreover, the rising use of unconventional gases in numerous end-use sectors due to an enhanced focus on sustainable development is creating lucrative growth opportunities in the market. In addition to this, continual technological advancements in various drilling techniques are also acting as a significant growth-inducing factor for the market. Also, the increasing discovery of new natural gas reserves across the globe is impacting the market positively. The market is further propelled by the growing number of collaborations, mergers and acquisitions (M&As), and partnerships among key players in numerous unconventional gas exploration projects. Besides this, favorable initiatives undertaken by government bodies of several countries to promote the usage of unconventional gas as a substitute for fossil fuels is creating a positive market outlook. Some of the other factors contributing to the market growth include the rising environmental concerns, fierce competition between unconventional gas manufacturers, increasing awareness regarding the benefits of clean energy, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
