Wellhead equipment refers to a device that is permanently installed at the surface of an oil and gas well. It provides a structural and pressure interface for the drilling and production equipment and acts as a connection between the tubing and casings of the pipeline. The equipment primarily consists of casing spools, isolation seals, test plugs, mudline suspension system, tubing head, hanger and tubing head adapter. These devices are used to seal the well and suspend the casings and can be configured according to the pressure, temperature, location, well size and drilling method.
Steady growth in the oil and gas industry, along with the increasing number of deep and ultra-deep-water drilling projects, represent as the key factors driving the market growth. Furthermore, growing exploration of unconventional resources like shale oil and coal bed methane (CBM) has led to the increasing utilization of long-suppressed oilfield devices, including wellhead systems, thereby providing a boost to the market growth. Additionally, manufacturers are creating innovative product variants to support the demand for harsher and manually unapproachable drilling environments. For instance, unmanned wellhead platforms are being used as a resting facility on the seabed, where the wells are placed on the platform deck. This acts as an effective alternative to subsea wells and a cost-efficient solution for shallow water developments. Other factors, including the implementation of favourable government initiatives to explore sustainable options for oil extraction, are projected to drive the market further.
