The rapid depletion and ageing of existing crude oil reserves are set to fuel the enhanced oil recovery (EOR) chemicals market. The market will develop rapidly on a platform of innovative, sustainable and economically viable offerings.
A new analysis from Frost & Sullivan of the market for enhanced oil recovery chemicals in the United States and Europe, finds that the market earned revenues of US $ 409.3 million in 2012 and estimates this to reach US $ 1,775.1 million in 2019. The research covers polymers, surfactants, alkaline chemicals, surfactant-polymer formulations, alkali-surfactant-polymer formulations, and other chemicals segments.
EOR Technologies Help to Untap new Reserves
“The demand for energy has been rising continuously in the United States and Europe, even while crude oil reserves have been depleting, especially in Europe,” noted Frost & Sullivan Chemicals & Materials Industry Analyst Anna Jarosik. “Many oil reserves in both regions are already at the mature stage, making further oil extraction ever more challenging. This has highlighted the importance of highly efficient EOR chemicals.”
EOR technology is also gaining appeal because it offers access to hard-to-reach resources. Ten years back many significant deposits in the U.S. and Europe remained trapped underground because it was economically unfeasible to tap these resources and produce oil.
