Report Description<br />

The recovery of hydrocarbon resources from the reservoir occurs either through natural<br />

bottomhole pressure or by creating artificial pressure using artificial lift systems. The<br />

artificial lift systems market is expected to witness a moderate annual growth in coming<br />

years owing to strengthening of crude oil prices. According to Energy International<br />

Agency (EIA), Brent crude is anticipated to be traded at around $90 per Bbl by the end of<br />

2025. Further, the mature fields account for over 70% of the global oil & gas production.<br />

With recovery in prices of the global crude oil benchmarks, coupled with attempts to<br />

increase production from mature fields, the global artificial lift systems market is<br />

expected to witness increased revenues in coming years.<br />

Although, a number of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques are available for<br />

increasing the amount of hydrocarbon recovery, but they are considered as tertiary<br />

recovery system. The artificial lift system on the other hand is a primary recovery<br />

technique, which provides low cost and effective means of maintaining the desired<br />

production rate in a well. An artificial lift system is utilized to overcome bottom-hole<br />

pressure during the phase when natural bottomhole pressure is not enough to support<br />

the flow of hydrocarbons from reservoir to the well bore. The artificial lift system enables<br />

to overcome downhole pressure in order to maintain the desired production rate from a<br />

producing well.
