DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/fp9tdc/fracking) has announced the addition of the "Fracking Chemicals and Fluid Market by Fluid & Well Type, and by Chemicals - Global Trends & Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.
Fracking (hydraulic fracturing) is the propagation of fractures through layers of rock using pressurized fracturing fluid. This technique is primarily used in the extraction of resources from low permeability reservoirs such as shale gas, tight gas, CBM, and unconventional liquids, which are difficult to recover through regular drilling procedures. The fracking fluid and fracking chemicals are very critical for a successful fracking job. The fracking fluids market is expected to increase by a CAGR of 9.6% over the next five years to reach $20 billion by 2018. The fracking chemicals consumption, that are added to the fluids, was estimated to be 1,700 KT in 2012.
'Fracking Chemicals and Fluid Market by Fluid & Well Type, and Chemicals (Acid, Surfactant, Biocide, Gelling Agent, Cross Linker, Breaker, Scale & Corrosion Inhibitor, Clay & Iron Control, Friction Reducer) - Global Trends & Forecasts to 2018'
The global fracking (hydraulic fracturing) fluids market is likely to witness a CAGR of 9.6% from 2013 to 2018. North America is the largest market for fracking fluids and chemicals, followed by Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
The fracking fluids market includes the major types of fluid base used such as Water-based, Gelled Oil-based, and Foam-based. The fracking chemicals include Acids, Biocide, Breaker, Clay Stabilizer, Corrosion Inhibitor, Cross-linker, Friction Reducer, Gelling Agent, Iron Control, pH Adjusting Agent, Scale Inhibitors, and Surfactant. This report on fracking chemicals and fluids cover market trends and estimates for all type of chemicals and fluids. The fracking fluids are also separated by the type of well i.e. horizontal and vertical.
