What are the top economic and technological drivers pushing underwater connectors market growth?
Increasing oil and gas exploration activities are expected to propel the growth of the underwater connectors market going forward. Oil and gas exploration is the process of searching for areas with significant oil and natural gas resources that might be used for drilling and extraction sites, as well as reserves of oil and gas. As oil and gas exploration efforts expand, more underwater connectors will be required to establish and maintain efficient and reliable connections between underwater wells, pipelines, and processing facilities. For instance, in April 2023, according to a report published by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), a US-based federal statistical agency, the deployment of active well service rigs in the United States increased from 738 in 2020 to nearly 949 in 2021, representing a growth of 22.23% due to rising oil and gas exploration and drilling operations. Furthermore, in December 2022, according to the reports shared by the Energy Information Administration (EIA), a US-based government agency, US Oil production increased from 11.2 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2020 to 11.6 million barrels per day (b/d) by 2021, and natural gas production increased from 112.6 billion cubic feet per day in 2020 to 118.7 billion cubic feet per day by 2021. Therefore, an increase in oil and gas exploration activities is driving the growth of the underwater connectors market.
