According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Deep Water Drilling Market is accounted for $31.25 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $44.41 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.03% during the forecast period. Deep water drilling is the process of obtaining natural gas and oil from beneath the ocean floor at considerable depths, usually more than 1,000 feet below the surface. To endure the high temperatures and pressures found underwater, this method calls for sophisticated tools and technology. In order to meet the world's energy demands, energy companies are being forced to explore more difficult environments, and deep water drilling has become crucial as shallow water and onshore oil reserves decline.
Increasing demand for energy worldwide
The world's energy needs are growing at a never-before-seen pace because of urbanization, industrialization, and population expansion. Global energy demand is predicted to increase dramatically over the next several decades, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). This increase calls for the investigation of new hydrocarbon sources, especially in deepwater areas where substantial reserves are still undiscovered. With the declining viability of conventional sources, deepwater drilling provides a means of obtaining dependable energy sources. Additionally, deepwater drilling is a strategic focus for many oil and gas companies because it provides access to large offshore reserves, which are essential for meeting present and future energy needs.
Complicated regulatory framework
There is a complicated web of regulations governing the deep water drilling industry that differ by nation and region. Adherence to safety requirements, environmental regulations, and permitting procedures can be laborious and time-consuming. Before beginning drilling operations, for example, operators must obtain several permits and carry out comprehensive environmental impact assessments. Uncertainties about compliance requirements may arise from the constantly changing regulatory environment. Furthermore, significant resources and experience are needed to navigate these regulations, which could cause project timeline delays and cost increases.
Investigating undiscovered resources
Large undiscovered oil and gas deposits in deepwater regions can still be found in many parts of the world. Because of their abundant offshore resources, nations like Brazil, Guyana, Nigeria, and Angola are becoming major players in the deep water drilling market. Exploration firms have a great chance to diversify their holdings due to the possibility of finding new fields. Moreover, the economic feasibility of previously unreachable regions is increasing as technological developments facilitate access to these reserves.
Price volatility for oil
Changes in the price of oil have a significant impact on the deepwater drilling business. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that exploration and production activities can be severely limited when prices are low. Higher-cost offshore projects aren't profitable with oil around $40 a barrel, industry analysts claim. This fluctuation causes ambiguity in revenue forecasts and may lead to project delays or cancellations. Additionally, downturns may make it difficult for businesses to obtain funding for new initiatives, which could result in more competition for scarce contracts and possible service provider bankruptcies.
The market for deep water drilling has been greatly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has also caused a dramatic drop in oil demand and previously unheard-of disruptions in the global oil and gas sector. Lockdowns and travel restrictions imposed by nations significantly hinder exploration and production efforts, leading to project cancellations and delays. Operators and service providers faced greater financial strain as a result of many businesses being forced to reconsider their investments in costly offshore projects due to the sharp decline in oil prices. Furthermore, a number of significant companies, such as Noble Corporation and Diamond Offshore Drilling Inc., declared bankruptcy due to their inability to pay off their debts in the face of declining drilling activity.
The Drill Ship segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The Drill Ship segment is predicted to secure the largest market share throughout the forecast period. For deepwater drilling operations, drill ships are specialized vessels outfitted with cutting-edge technology that enables them to function effectively in demanding offshore environments. Moreover, their dynamic positioning systems, which provide stability and accurate maneuvering when drilling in deep waters, are what define them. Because drill ships are so adaptable and mobile, they are especially well-suited for a range of offshore projects, including exploration and production operations in areas like the Gulf of Mexico and offshore Brazil.
The Deep Water Drilling segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The Deep Water Drilling segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Drilling operations in water depths between roughly 1,500 feet and 7,500 feet define the deep water drilling segment, which is expanding rapidly for a number of reasons. Energy companies are turning their attention to deep water reserves, which are frequently rich in hydrocarbons, as onshore oil reserves become more and more depleted. Additionally, deep water operations are becoming safer and more efficient owing to the incorporation of cutting-edge technologies like real-time data analytics, directional drilling methods, and subsea completion systems.
Due in large part to substantial offshore oil reserves and continuing exploration efforts in nations like Brazil and Guyana, the South American region commands the largest share of the deep water drilling market. Large oil companies have made significant investments in the region because of its abundant deepwater resources, which include the pre-salt fields off the coast of Brazil. Furthermore, South America is anticipated to lead the market because of its advantageous geology and technological developments in drilling that increase the feasibility of deepwater projects.
The Middle East and Africa region is anticipated to have the highest CAGR in the deep water drilling market over the course of the forecast period. Growing investments in offshore oil and gas exploration, especially in nations with abundant undeveloped deepwater resources like Nigeria, Angola, and Egypt, are the main driver of this growth. The region's growth is being further accelerated by its strategic focus on improving production capabilities and luring foreign investment through advantageous regulatory frameworks. Moreover, it is anticipated that the implementation of cutting-edge drilling technologies and the discovery of new oil fields will improve the feasibility of deepwater projects.
Key players in the market
Some of the key players in Deep Water Drilling market include Chevron Corporation, Transocean Ltd., Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc., Baker Hughes Company, Seadrill Limited, Exxon Mobil Corporation, China Oilfield Services Limited, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc, Noble Corporation, Aker Solutions, TotalEnergies, Schlumberger Limited, Maersk Group, Saipem S.p.A and Ensco plc.
In September 2024, Transocean Ltd. announced a 365-day contract for the Deepwater Atlas with bp in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. The contract also provides for a 365-day option. The program is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2028 and contribute approximately $232 million in backlog, excluding a mobilization fee. There are no additional services provided under the contract.
In July 2024, Chevron Corporation CVX has entered into a significant cooperation agreement through its subsidiary Chevron Munaigas Inc. with QazaqGaz, Kazakhstan's national gas company. This partnership is focused on the geological exploration of potential gas resources at the Zhalibek site in the Aktobe region, near the Zhanazhol and Urikhtau fields. The agreement marks a key moment in CVX's longstanding relationship with Kazakhstan, spanning over three decades.
In June 2024, Baker Hughes, an energy technology company, announced it has entered into a new 10-year services frame agreement with Woodside Energy to support its LNG operations in Australia. Under the multi-year services frame agreement, Baker Hughes will provide spare parts and field service resources for onsite turbomachinery equipment maintenance and upgrades, equipment refurbishment and advanced digital asset performance services.
