Applications for specialty oilfield chemicals include corrosion inhibition, scale inhibition, pest control, demulsification, foam control agents, emulsifying agents, gelling agents, friction reduction, fracking agents, anti-freeze agents, dispersing agents, etc. These chemicals are used in oilfield functions such as in drilling fluids, well stimulation, oil production, well cementing, oil recovery, work-over and completion. Most chemicals are used for specific purposes throughout the production lifecycle of an oilfield. However, certain chemicals solve more than one purpose, especially surfactant chemicals. Alternately, more than one chemical can be used for a specific function in oilfield applications.

The global specialty oilfield chemicals market is primarily driven by the high demand for energy production. Oil is the basic fuel source across the world for most industrial and many domestic activities. Additionally, the current shale gas revolution is expected to further boost demand for specialty oilfield chemicals globally. However, stringent regulations against chemicals potentially harmful for the environment and costly disposal procedures for chemicals after use are anticipated to hinder market growth. Development of new environment friendly products and solutions that comply with regulations laid down by global and regional regulatory authorities might present prospective opportunities for further demand growth.

In terms of geography North America is estimated to be the leading consumer owing to the high growth in the number of oilfield exploration and deep drilling activities. Additionally, the shale gas revolution has instilled renewed vigor in oil extraction and lead to increase in the demand for specialty oilfield chemicals market. Latin America, Eastern Europe, The Middle East, and Asia Pacific are amongst other rapidly growing markets. These markets are characterized by increasing oil exploration and drilling activities owing to rapid industrial growth in the regions. Most of the investment activities are concentrated on expansion into emerging markets such as Asia Pacific, Latin America and Eastern Europe. The market players are looking to enhance their footprints in the high growth regions mentioned above and take advantage of lower land and labor costs and lenient regulatory norms. Western Europe is expected to face slower growth amidst economic crises in the euro zone countries.
