This report can be delivered to the clients within 8 Business Days
Tight Gas Market Growth & Trends
The global tight gas market size is expected treach USD 70.04 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.0% over the forecast period, according ta new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rise in government policies for clean fuel production, along with the deployment of advanced drilling technologies across several countries, is likely tdrive the market over the forecast period.
Tight gas, a form of natural gas, is regarded as a reliable energy source for power generation and occupies the second-largest share of energy supply in the global electricity generation after coal. The share of tight gas is bound tincrease over the coming years in response tthe environmental and economic limits of coal generation, at least in countries where natural gas is a viable alternative. This heavy end-use application is expected tpositively influence the tight gas industry landscape.
The tight gas supply chain includes production and processing, gas transmission and storage, and distribution tlarge volume customers, residential customers, and commercial customers. The convergence of multi-stage hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling has enabled the industry participants tproduce natural gas from tight formations in an economic manner. The development of these advanced techniques is expected tstrengthen the upstream segment of the supply chain.
Stable regulatory and fiscal policies, adoption of advanced technologies, decreasing drilling and well completion costs, along with growing investments from international market players, are among the key factors for sustaining the competitiveness of the tight gas industry. Moreover, the profitable production of tight gas depends on the accessible demand markets for it, such as electricity generation, industrial thermal sector, building thermal sector, and others.
