Proppant Market by Type (FRAC Sand Proppant, Resin-coated Proppant, and Ceramic Proppant) and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa) - Global Forecast to 2022
[133 Pages Report] The proppant market size is projected to reach USD 9.9 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.9% between 2017 and 2022. Proppant products find usage in hydraulic fracturing of unconventional gases such as shale gas, tight gas and coalbed methane. Rising use of proppant in the oil and gas industry have led to an increased demand for proppant, globally.
Frac-sand is estimated to be the largest type during the forecast period.
Frac sand accounted for the dominant share of the proppants market in 2018. Frac sand is the most-widely used type of proppant due to its easy availability and lowest cost. Ceramic proppant is the fastest growing type as it has high strength to withstand closure pressures up to 15,000 psi
Shale gas is projected to be the fastest-growing application segment of the proppants market during the forecast period.
Shale gas is projected to be the fastest growing application for proppants in 2018. The large scale demand from the shale reserves as well new shale gas projects in countries such as China are projected to boost the demand for proppants in the coming years
North America is estimated to be the largest market during the forecast period
North America is estimated to be the largest market for proppant. U.S. is expected to account for the largest share of the market globally till 2022 as the hydraulic fracturing market is mainly concentrated in the U.S. Major producers of proppant such as Carbo Ceramics Inc. (U.S.), Saint-Gobain Proppant Inc. (U.S.), U.S. Silica Holdings Inc. (U.S.), Hexion Inc. (U.S.), Fairmount Santrol Holdings Inc. (U.S.), Hi-Crush Partners LP (U.S.) and Superior Silica Sands LLC are located in the North America region. Asia-Pacific accounts for the second-largest share of the global proppant market and is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Market Dynamics
Drivers
Increasing proppant consumption per well
Operators continue to push the limits for proppant consumption per foot in the plays by using as much as 2,000 lbs/ft. An upsurge of closely spaced wells is projected as operators continue to harvest as much of the resource as possible. To achieve the required recovery rates for these closely spaced wells, extra proppants will be required in the future.
In 2014 and 2015, demand for frac sand proppant increased due to its low price and high consumption. This trend is projected to be witnessed till 2017 as operators are planning to consume even more proppant per lateral foot to continue driving IP and generate higher recovery rates. With the increasing use of fracking sand and improving the quality of wells, several exploration and production firms have also started increasing proppant use per well to help cope with slumping prices. EOG Resources (U.S.), Whiting Petroleum (U.S.), and Murphy Oil Corp (U.S.) are some of the companies that reported improvements in well performance owing to the use of significantly higher amounts of frac sand per well.
Since past few years, some proppants used to frack a single horizontal well were 1,000 to 3,000 tons. These figures changed significantly since 2014, with the proppants consumption per well estimated to be 8,000 to 10,000 tons. Also, several oil service companies, such as Halliburton, are investigating certain new fracturing techniques to consume 20 million pounds of frac sand instead of 5 million pounds (current utilization of frac sand per shale well) in a single well.
Restraints
Oversupply of crude oil
According to the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), more than 80% of the world's proven crude oil reserves are located in the countries of the Middle East & Africa such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Libya, and Algeria and countries of Asia-Pacific such as Indonesia. Thus, these countries have large production and supply of crude oil at a lower price. Hydraulic exploration activities are more costly than the already established crude oil production in these countries. Hence, the oversupply of crude oil in the Middle East & Africa and Asia-Pacific would restrict the growth of natural gases such as shale gas, tight gas, and coal-bed methane. As a result, this restriction will have an adverse impact on the proppant consumption in this region.
Opportunities
Unconventional oil and gas reserves
The countries, such as the U.S., Canada, China, India, and Russia, have a high demand for oil and gas since the last decade. Limited availability of conventional oil and gas along with their high level of carbon emission has led to the growth in the production of unconventional oil and gas such as shale oil & gas, tight oil & gas, and coal bed methane. Countries such as Brazil, Algeria, South Africa, Argentina, Mexico, and Australia are expected to have large proven reserves of unconventional oil and gas which will significantly increase the demand for proppant in the future.
Challenges
Water availability and environmental concerns
Considering hydraulic fracturing as a major part of proppants consumption, 98% to 99.5% of the fracturing fluid used consists of water. Companies usually use a variety of water sources such as rivers, lakes, groundwater, discharge water from industrial or city wastewater treatment plants, and re-used fracturing water. Temporary pipelines or trucks are used to carry the water to drilling locations. Companies attempt to use a mix of water sources depending on the region and the proximity of water sources. On an average, 3 million gallons of water is required per well for hydraulic fracturing. However, this quantity varies widely across regions. It also depends on how many stages of fracturing are conducted at a well. There are two distinct problems with regard to water use in hydraulic fracturing. First, the limited availability of water for hydraulic fracturing, and second, concerns related to water contamination due to fracturing chemicals.
In arid regions, it can prove to be tough for oilfield service companies to source reliable and affordable water for pressure pumping operations. The costs of purchasing and hauling the water may even render operations unprofitable. Even if the companies can source the water, they may face public opposition regarding its use in oil and gas extraction with proppants. For instance, Shells exploration plans in the Karoo Basin of South Africa went into limbo mainly because of public concerns that pressure pumping could both reduce and contaminate the already limited supply of water in the semi-arid region.
In addition, hydraulic fracturing has led to the contamination of underground drinking water during coalbed methane production. Coalbed methane reserves are located near the underground water reserves. Thus, there exists a risk of methane leakage into the drinking water reserves. Also, the spills of fracturing chemicals and wastes during fracturing operations and waste disposal have contaminated soil and surface waters.
Companies have to ensure that exploration economics remain intact while abiding governmental regulations that often dictate water management options. These include federal, state, local regulatory authorities, and regional water permitting agencies. Such regulatory requirements also add significant costs to operations.
