石油设备网讯 据世界能源网2019年4月30日奥斯陆报道，挪威著名能源研究和商业情报公司雷斯塔能源公司(雷斯塔能源/Rystad Energy)预测，今年全球陆上和海上油气新井开钻数量将增至6.5万口左右。
雷斯塔能源表示，全球油气钻井活动水平预计到2023年将保持在这一水平左右。
雷斯塔能源还预测，全球未来五年新由气井钻井总深度将超过100万公里。这个钻井总深度相当于绕赤道25圈的距离或者是到月球距离的2.5倍。
由于全球油气行业重新进入高速发展阶段——这在很大程度上要归功于大宗商品价格的上涨——钢铁需求势必会增加。这与全球对钢套管日益增长的需求有关。钢套管通常用于油井和气井，以防止油气井坍塌或损坏。
雷斯塔能源咨询部门主管埃里克·雷索表示：“由于页岩繁荣，北美也将跻身其中。全球大陆上10口新井中有近6口新井将在页岩盆地中钻探。这些井通常比其他供应段井长。这有助于解释为什么到2023年前页岩井占到北美所钻距离的80%左右。
雷索说：“我们的研究还揭示了新油井陆上和海上市场之间的显著差异。”
雷索补充说：“在2019年至2023年期间，全球前四大海上运营商将在未来新增四分之一的海上油井，而全球陆上市场的前十家运营商在未来只占新增油井的三分之一左右，这意味着全球油气钻井市场将更加多元化。”

65,000 Wells will be Drilled in 2019
Rystad Energy forecasts that the number of onshore and offshore oil and gas wells drilled globally will increase to around 65,000 in 2019.
Activity levels are then projected to remain around this level through 2023, the energy research and business intelligence company said.
Rystad Energy also forecasts that more than 1 million kilometers of new oil and gas wells will be drilled over the next five years. The collective depth of these wells is the equivalent of 25 times around the equator – or 2.5 times the distance to the moon.
As the global oil and gas industry gets back into high gear – thanks in no small part to higher commodity prices – demand for steel is set to increase. This is tied to the rising need for steel casing that is commonly used in oil and gas wells to prevent them from collapsing or getting damaged.
“North America will be in a league of its own thanks to the shale boom. Nearly six in ten new wells on the continent will be drilled in shale basins. These wells are typically longer than other supply segment wells. This helps explain why shale wells represent around 80% of the distance drilled in North America by 2023,” said Erik Reiso, Head of Consulting at Rystad Energy.
"Our study also reveals striking differences between the onshore and offshore markets for new wells," he said.
“Whereas the top four offshore operators will add a quarter of new offshore wells going forward, the top ten in the onshore market only represent around one-third of new wells from 2019 to 2023, implying a much more diversified player landscape,” Reiso added.
