The global well cementing market report offers up-to-date information about factors that can shape the market outcome or overall performance during the forecast period, 2023 to 2031.
Government entities and prominent operators across the world are consistently investing in the development of drilling activities to meet the rising demand for hydrocarbon. Moreover, the forecasting and strategic planning of oil and gas consumption are likely to support the market.
Oil & gas is the major source of energy for several industry verticals. Recently, the world bank stated that 80% of the world derives from cities. Thus, the development of urban areas is resulting in high consumption of oil and gas. The massive potential in untapped hydrocarbon reserves is anticipated to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
The rising energy demand in the transport sector is expected to propel the market expansion in the coming years. Fossil fuel energy sources including natural gas, oil, and coal are used to meet energy demands from various industry verticals. Global energy demand is increasing due to advances in both developed and developing countries and industrial activities.
A drop in oil prices is expected to support stronger national economic growth, however, it can disrupt regional growth among energy-producing states. Thus, a drop in oil prices is projected to hamper the market expansion during the forecast period. Moreover, stringent environmental regulation by the government is anticipated to hinder market growth.
Cement powder is not an eco-friendly product. Also, it is a harmful chemical. Cement powder causes respiratory diseases when inhaled by individuals. Thus, the government imposes stringent rules regarding the use of well-cement. The growing rate of lung diseases and respiratory infections is a key factor for these governmental laws.
Ultra-deep oil and gas exploration activities are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the key market players. The implementation of a well-cementing process protects the wells from damage and loss of oil resources.
The well-cementing process protects the wells from damage and loss of oil resources. Innovation and advancements in the market are anticipated to enable high-end cementing equipment and applications. These developments in the market are projected to attract more end-users during the forecast period.

On the basis of application, the global well cementing market is segmented into offshore and onshore. The onshore segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Prominent market players depend on onshore exploration owing to feasible E&P and various advantages.
The operational cost in onshore is low as compared to offshore due to the feasible transportation of equipment from one place to another and the easy availability of workforce. The onshore segment accounted for 84.1% of the well cementing market during the forecast period.
The offshore segment is anticipated to account for a major market share during the forecast period, due to the increasing exploration activities. Technological advancements in equipment have made drilling operations more feasible and cost-effective. However, offshore exploration needs high funding, and complexities associated with the environment are projected to trigger a problem.
Based on type, the global market is divided into primary cementing and remedial cementing. The primary cementing segment is expected to hold a significant share of the market in the coming years. Several oil and gas companies focus on primary cementing to avoid contamination of groundwater and fluid movement between formations. Moreover, zonal isolations are attained through primary cementing to protect the casing from corrosion. Well cementing is an important part of productive drilling operations. Primary cementing offers stability to the well.
The remedial cementing segment accounts for a significant market share. Remedial cementing is done when there is any rectification or fault in primary cementing. Moreover, the primary cementing is anticipated to outpace its counterpart, due to its requisition while drilling.
In terms of regions, the global well cementing market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. Several countries in the region such as India, China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Australia are focusing on their Capex to discover new hydrocarbon reserves. The market growth is attributed to the rising population in the region, which consumes a sizeable amount of oil and gas.
The market in North America is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period, due to tremendous drilling activities in the U.S. and Canada. Moreover, enormous potential in untapped hydrocarbon reserves and unconventional hydrocarbons increased drilling activities that were set to influence the requisition of well cementing.
