Tight Oil Market to Perceive Substantial Growth During 2024
Tight
oil, popularly known as shale oil, has been providing stiff
competition to crude oil and natural gas of late. This has roiled the
global oil markets, with OPEC countries exponentially upping
production of crude to address the challenge. This has resulted in a
steep drop in global crude oil prices. As per the U.S. Energy
Information Administration (EIA), the tight oil production is likely
to more than double from 2015 to 2040 to reach a value of 10.36 mn
barrels per day in 2040 from 4.98 mn barrels per day in 2015.

Report Overview @
To
study the global market for tight oil, a report by Transparency
Market Research segments it on the basis of applications, technology,
location of tight oil reserves, and the tight oil producing
countries.
Tight
oil is extracted by the hydraulic fracturing of sedimentary rocks.
The process entails mixing liquid, usually water, with chemicals and
sand which is then injected applying high pressure into the well. The
high pressure breaks the non-permeable sedimentary rocks resulting in
the outflow of the tight oil. Like crude oil, tight oil is refined to
act as fuels and various chemicals. The main products include
methane, heavy fuel oil, diesel, light fuel oil gasoline, naphtha,
and tar, among others.
Global
Tight Oil Market: Trends and Opportunities
The
TMR report furnishes a granular analysis of the drivers and
restraints in the global market for tight oil. It finds that the
growing number of applications, rising energy demand, and concerns
about energy security are some of the primary factors filliping the
global tight oil market. Yet another major growth driver in the
market is the progress in exploration and production techniques that
have resulted in reduced costs. The application of more effective
hydraulic fracturing techniques and the use of multiwell-pad
drilling, coupled with modifications in well completion designs, are
expected to up the amount of oil extracted from a single well.
Factors
countering the growth in the global tight oil market is the dearth of
take-up of modern technology in emerging countries due to high
capital requirements. Negative impact on the environment is also
crimping the growth in the market.
Global
Tight Oil Market: Region-wise Outlook
Geographically,
the global tight oil market can be segmented into Europe, North
America, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. Most of the tight
oil reserves in North America are present in the U.S., followed by
Mexico and Canada. In Europe, Russia dominates and in Asia Pacific,
China leads, with Pakistan, Indonesia, and Australia trailing it. In
the Middle East and Africa, Libya and Argentina produce a sizeable
proportion of tight oil. Venezuela follows them.
Going
forward, Canada, Russia, and Argentina, led by the U.S., are likely
contribute most to the global tight oil market, due to their
substantial oil resources and existing, developed oil industries. In
the U.S., tight oil production has proven more resilient to low oil
prices, defying analysts’ predictions. According to EIA, the U.S.
contributes about 10.4% of total crude oil production out of which
4.3% -- which comes to around 3.22 mn barrels per day – is
accounted for by tight oil.
