"Technologically improved downhole tools ensure greater penetration, real-time analysis, heightened performance and increased productivity that translate into significant capital cost savings, reduced well downtime, and increased well life expectancy," said Frost & Sullivan Energy & Environment Industry Analyst Rasholeen Nakra. "While North America continues to lead the downhole tools market with advanced technology in multi-well horizontal drilling and production, the Asia-Pacific Region and Middle East will be key markets as these regions continue to explore large untapped oil and gas reserves."

The total market is estimated to increase at a CAGR of 5.8 percent from 2015 to 2022, reaching $5.44 billion by 2022. The drilling tools segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR of 6.6 percent from 2015 to 2022 due to a shale gas boom in the United States and high oil and gas demand globally.

"The downhole tools market is mature, with a mix of participants of different sizes and expertise. The top five participants constitute 69.5 percent of the total market share in downhole tools," noted Nakra. "In order to remain competitive in a volatile market, key players such as Schlumberger, Halliburton, Baker Hughes, and National Oilwell Varco (NOV) consider merger and acquisition strategies."
