The Oil and Gas Chemicals market is driven by increased energy demand and oilfield activities, with North America leading and Asia-Pacific growing rapidly.
Oil and gas chemicals are used in major oil field activities such as drilling, production, stimulation, enhanced oil recovery, and completion. They are used in various other operations for smooth functioning and improving productivity of the well. Additionally, oil and gas chemicals has applications in petroleum refining processes. Increase in energy demand, high consumption rate, and growing oilfield activities in deep and ultra-deep water has led to increase in growth of oil and gas chemicals market.
Upstream segment of oil and gas chemicals market is projected to be the dominant market and was valued at US$ 37.39 billion in 2016. Oil and gas chemicals are widely used in oilfield activity to extract, repair or enhance the total oil recovery during the life of an oilfield. Stimulation chemicals, which is a sub-segment of upstream oil and gas chemicals, is the dominant market in the oil and gas chemicals, owing to their wide use in oilfield E&P activities. Stimulation chemicals are one of the best suited measure to enhance the production of a well, and was projected at a value of US$ 16.58 billion in 2016. However, workover & completion chemicals are witnessed to attract the upstream oil and gas chemicals market at fast pace with a CAGR of 6.19% over the forecast period.

Downstream segment is accounted to have a significant growth in oil and gas chemicals market due to the rising demand for refined products, such as kerosene, gasoline, jet fuels, lubricants, natural gas, and numerous other products. This segment was valued at US$ 6.55 billion in 2016. Petrochemical additives from the downstream segment are projected to be the dominant market in downstream oil and gas chemicals and are anticipated to continue their dominance over the forecast period.
North-America is witnessed to be the largest market in oil and gas chemicals and was valued at US$ 30.59 billion in 2016 with a consumption of 22,657 kilotons in 2016. Shale gas revolution and increased E&P in offshore basins has further contributed to the growth of oil and gas chemicals in this region. Also, superior technology has allowed North American shale producers to achieve breakeven at US$ 50 per barrel scenario. The availability of low cost feedstock has allowed petrochemical industry to thrive in the country. The major shale basins in the US are Permian, Niobrara, Eagle Ford, Bakken, Marcellus, and Anadarko.
However, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to be at a fastest growing region with a CARG of 7.36% over the forecast period. According to Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), the global oil consumption increased from 104 mboe/d to 268 mboe/d, an increase of 157%. This rapid increase has been attributed to increased consumption in the emerging economies of India, China, and ASEAN. Furthermore, OPEC forecasts the oil consumption to increase by 49% from 268 mboe/d to 399 mboe/d by 2040. Increase in consumption rate, industrialization, rising exploration, and production activities in China, India, Australia, etc. has given speed to the growth of oil and gas chemicals market in this region.
