Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) Demand Intertwined
with the Fate of Oil & Gas Industry
The oil & gas industry holds high importance in
the economy of a nation. It’s not just the nation, but also, the common people
who always directly feel the impact of volatility in the industry. The effective management of oil & gas
industry is crucial for the development of a country. In some cases, this
management, if not develop, can save the nation from the crisis. Well, you must
have guessed that I’m referring to Venezuela here. Not saying that saving the
industry alone could have saved the economy, but, it could have helped in
sustaining the crisis. Anyway, so, the industry is very typical in a way that
requires piping products – also known as OCTG – that are specially designed for
industry operations. If we are to consider the potential for the growth of the
market for OCTG, we need to understand the future trajectory of the oil & gas
industry on the global front. In a time, like now, when the industry is
witnessing price and supply volatility, it becomes even more necessary to
assess the future trajectory of the OCTG market.
Oil & Gas Industry – Brief Outlook
The oil & gas industry has observed price erosion
while the demand has rapidly increased over the years. However, the foreseeable
trends indicate that the economic slowdown and trade disputes can emerge as
major setbacks for the industry in the near future. These uncertainties lurking
have initiated the corrective measures in the industry. We can confidently say
that the industry is way more well-equipped than it was a decade back to
uncover growth opportunities amidst the risks and uncertainties.
The U.S. has increased long-term production of shale
gas in recent times. It is also expected to increase investments for shale gas
production in the coming years. Although the U.S. economy is on the verge of
slowing down, the oil & gas industry is likely to be one of the priorities
of the government. Similarly, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting
Countries (OPEC) will be seen pulling up their socks. A long-term demand growth
is on the cards. OPEC, in the coming years, is in a position to control the
market balance. When, Venezuela, Iran, and Brazil are facing issues due to
trade disputes, economy crisis, etc., we can expect stability from other
petroleum exporting countries.
How will the Industry Impact Oil Country Tubular Goods
Market?
If the industry spirals down (in a hypothetical
situation), the demand for OCTG will enter a phase of maturity. However, the
ongoing trends suggest that the industry leaders are investing in channelizing
the growth potential to the desired path. Here, Oil Country Tubular Goods
manufacturers play an important role by innovating their product lines. It is
the combined efforts of the market participants and industry leaders that are
going to enhance the performance of the oil & gas sector. And, just like
every other, the industry, oil & gas industry is also leveraging
technological innovations. This can be made possible only by OCTG
manufacturers.
Takeaway
The oil & gas industry is under the cloud of
uncertainty, but, is expected to sustain in the long run. In this process, the
manufacturers of piping products and other technologies that can enhance the
performance of the industry will unveil growth opportunities. A combined effort
towards the same direction will be witnessed by us over the next few years.
