Enhanced Oil Recovery Market Growth Drivers

  • Escalate Demand Worldwide for Energy: The world's energy demand, which has been intensifying with each passing year, is the main propeller of EOR growth. According to the International Energy Agency, or IEA, estimates, demand for world energy would rise by 30 percent in the year 2040.
  • Demand from developing economies: The demand would mainly be triggered by developing economies-Asia-which have had their levels of urbanization and industrialization increase drastically. For example, countries such as India and China are experiencing very high growth rates of the economy that have resulted in a tremendous increase in energy consumption.
  • Decreasing yield from naturally occurring oil fields: The U.S. Energy Information Administration, or EIA, has information indicating that the annual drop in mature oil fields might reach 8% to 10%. The employment of EOR techniques is unavoidable in their quest for extended field life and improved recovery rates due to declining conditions. This technology has seen popularity in recent times. Digital oil field technologies, comprising IoT and data analytics, make it possible to have more effective and improved views and management of oil reservoirs that are well-suited for EOR operation.

Enhanced Oil Recovery Market Future Trends

  • Advancement in Carbon Capture and Storage Technologies: The most unique trend in the EOR market is the increasing integration of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. As the world gets into decarbonization, the companies are realizing that combining CCS with EOR will increase oil recovery while decreasing carbon emissions. The International Energy Agency reports that by 2030, CO2-EOR will be able to sequester up to 1.5 billion tonnes per annum. This synergy is not only an increase in oil production but at the same time serves the ideals of global sustainability.
  • Trend towards Bio-Based EOR Methods: Bio-based EOR methods are gaining momentum because companies are quickly switching to sustainable alternatives from traditional chemical methods. Bio-based techniques apply microorganisms and bio-surfactants in EOR operations. The market size for bio-based chemicals is projected to be at $21.6 billion in 2027, and therefore, the fascination with eco-friendly EOR solutions is on the rise. Companies have invested significantly in research on effective bio-EOR technologies that are not harmful to the environment.
  • Focus on Offshore EOR projects: With the depletion of onshore oil reserves, offshore EOR projects are coming under increasing focus. Many offshore fields have complex reservoir characteristics that are grossly in need of EOR. The U.S. Department of Energy believes there is tremendous EOR potential in offshore fields and estimates that more than 2 billion barrels of oil could be recovered using EOR methods. It is this trend that evidences the overall effort put by the industry in extracting the maximum production out of available offshore assets.

Enhanced Oil Recovery Market Opportunities

  • Intensified Global Energy Demand: World energy demand, growing each subsequent year, is the main impetus for EOR growth. The International Energy Agency, or IEA, estimates that demand in the world's energy would increase by about 30 percent in 2040. The demand would mainly be triggered by developing economies-Asia-that has had their levels of urbanization and industrialization increase drastically. For example, India and China have experienced extremely high growth rates of the economy that have led to an enormous increase in energy consumption
  • . The output of naturally occurring mature oil fields is decreasing: The U.S. Energy Information Administration, or EIA, has information indicating that the annual drop in mature oil fields might reach 8% to 10%. Thus, due to decline conditions, there is inevitable use of EOR techniques in the quest for extended field life and better recovery rates. EOR technologies facilitate more oil recovered and eliminate the problem of declining output.
  • Trend towards Bio-Based EOR Methods: Bio-based EOR techniques are gaining wide acceptance as the firms are rapidly shifting towards the green alternatives from the traditional chemical EOR approaches. The bio-based techniques expose the operations of EOR to the microorganisms and bio-surfactants. The bio-based chemicals market size is predicted to be $21.6 billion in 2027 and thus, the interest in eco-friendly EOR solutions is rising. Companies have largely invested in research on efficient bio-EOR technologies that are environmentally friendly.
  • Focus on Offshore EOR projects: Following the depletion of onshore oil reserves, EOR projects offshore have gathered increasing attention. Due to the complex characteristics of the reservoir, there is an absolute requirement for EOR in many offshore fields. The U.S. Department of Energy is confident of tremendous EOR potential in offshore fields and estimates that more than 2 billion barrels of oil could be recovered by using EOR methods.
