The key objective of drilling & completion fluids is to provide lubrication and decrease the friction in a drilling activity; cooling of a wellbore; and the removal of rock cuttings by transporting them to the drilling surface, as the rock cuttings are mixed with the fluids. The Asia-Pacific region is one of the fastest-growing markets for drilling and completion fluids, mainly owing to the rise in drilling and exploration activities in China, India, Australia, and Indonesia, among others. Australia and China have huge shale reserves where drilling activities are in the initial stage; thus, they are expected to become huge markets for drilling and completion fluids in the coming years. The growing population, improvements in economic conditions, and high rate of migration towards big cities, accelerated by industrial development, has raised the energy demand in Asia-Pacific.

The report analyzes the drilling and completion fluids market in Asia-Pacific on the basis of base fluid, application, and geography. In terms of geography, the report has been segmented into China, Australia, Thailand, India, and Indonesia. The drilling and completion fluid segments, in terms of base fluid, are water-based systems, oil-based systems, and synthetic-based systems, among others (including aerated foam, gaseous agents, and air as a base fluid mixed with various additives). The application areas covered in the report are onshore and offshore areas.

The growing demand for energy can be catered to only by increasing the production of hydrocarbons, which is carried out by enhanced oil recovery to boost the production or by drilling new wells. These factors have led to an upsurge in the demand for drilling and completion fluids. The drilling and completion fluids market is highly competitive, owing to the presence of a large number of global and local players. The increase in the demand for drilling fluids as well as its growth in an emerging market has encouraged companies to adopt mergers and acquisitions as a strategy to grow in the market. Canadian Energy Services (Canada) and M-I SWACO (U.S.) are the key industry players of drilling and completion fluids. Both the companies have acquired the local drilling fluid manufacturers to increase their market share and strengthen their position in the Asia-Pacific market. Furthermore, Halliburton (U.S.) and Baker Hughes (U.S.) account for a significant market share due to their strong geographic presence and brand names.

The report provides an extensive competitive landscaping of drilling and completion fluid manufacturers operational in the Asia-Pacific market. The key players are Schlumberger Ltd., Halliburton Co., Baker Hughes Inc., and Weatherford International Ltd., among others. The market shares, new product/service launches, M&A, and product portfolios of the key market players have been detailed in the report.
