Transparency Market Research has released a new market report titled, "Zonal Isolation Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth Trends, and Forecast 2016 – 2024." According to this report, the global zonal isolation market was valued at US$14.80 bn in 2014 and is projected to reach US$27.88 bn by 2024 at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2016 to 2024.
Traditionally, cementing technique has been used by operators to provide zonal isolation throughout the life of a well. However, in the past few years, several mechanical and chemical techniques have been developed to prevent cross flow of water, gas, or oil between different formations. Mechanical zonal isolation consists of the use of several mechanical equipment such as sliding sleeves, packers, perforated/slotted liners, and plugs. Chemical zonal isolation, on the other hand, comprises the use of polymer gels, monomer systems, bio polymers, and elastomers
Multiple technologies along with primary and remedial cementing are deployed by well operators for isolating a particular zone during well completion and intervention. Deployment of such techniques depends on several well parameters such as type of producing zone (oil or gas), depth of well, wellbore geometry, and temperature of the wellbore. Zonal isolation is considered very critical for developing unconventional resources. It is very essential to predict flow rates to successfully design and implement multistage hydraulic fracturing in low permeable shale gas reserves. Cost of isolating a particular zone is generally 2%-5% of the total well completion cost. Shift of exploration activities from onshore to offshore areas coupled with increasing focus toward the development of unconventional reserves has spurred the market for the zonal isolation across the globe.
