Market Size Estimation

Multiple approaches were adopted to estimate and forecast the oilfield communications market. The first approach involves estimating the market size by summing up the companies’ revenue generated by selling solutions.

Market Size Estimation Methodology- Top-down approach

In the top-down approach, an exhaustive list of all the vendors offering solutions in the oilfield communications market was prepared. The revenue contribution of the market vendors was estimated through press releases, funding, investor presentations, paid databases, and primary interviews. Each vendor's offerings were evaluated based on the breadth of solutions, including offering, communication technology, deployment site type, operational stage, and end users.

The aggregate of all the companies' revenues was extrapolated to determine the overall market size. Each subsegment was studied and analyzed for its global market size and regional penetration. The markets were triangulated through primary and secondary research. The primary procedure involved extensive interviews with key industry leaders, including CIOs, CEOs, VPs, directors, and marketing executives, to gather valuable insights. The market numbers were further triangulated with the existing MarketsandMarkets repository for validation.

Market Size Estimation Methodology-Bottom-up approach

In the bottom-up approach, the adoption rate of oilfield communications solutions among different end users in key countries with respect to their regions contributing the most to the market share was identified. For cross-validation, the adoption of oilfield communications solutions across various industries, along with different use cases by region, was identified and extrapolated. Use cases identified in different regions were given weightage for the market size calculation.

Based on the market numbers, the regional split was determined by primary and secondary sources. The procedure included analyzing the regional penetration of the oilfield communications market. Based on secondary research, the regional spending on Information and Communications Technology (ICT), socio-economic analysis of each country, strategic vendor analysis of major Oilfield Communications providers, and organic and inorganic business development activities of regional and global players were estimated. With the data triangulation procedure and data validation through primary interviews, the exact values of the overall market size and the segments’ size were determined and confirmed using the study.

Data Triangulation

The market was segmented into several segments and subsegments after determining the overall market size using the market size estimation processes outlined above. To complete the overall market engineering process and determine the exact statistics for each market segment and subsegment, data triangulation and market segmentation procedures were employed, wherever applicable. The overall market size was then used in the top-down approach to estimate the size of other individual markets by applying percentage splits to the market segmentation.
