The upstream sector, which is majorly associated with the exploration and production of oil and natural gas, utilises numerous services across different operations, spanning from searching for oil and gas to drilling wells, and operating them. The process, in itself, is very bulky and requires heavy machinery and specialised services for the complete process. As per the study conducted by Market Research Future, the global market for upstream services is likely to grow at the CAGR of around 4%.

Oil & Gas industry is one of the major revenue generating industries which has pushed the market for exploration and production activities, where, upstream services methods is one of them.

Reviving fossil fuel demand is expected to result in a rise in demand for the Upstream Services market. The oil and gas industry has been experiencing severe revenue contraction post April 2014, following oil price decline. Persistent price downfall had a profound impact on the investments in the oil & gas industry, particularly the upstream sector. However, recent adjustments the oil prices have instigated a positive outlook for this industry.

Increasing demand for oil and gas is also expected to fuel the demand in the upstream services market.

Owing to the effects of various macro- and micro-economic factors, the upstream oil & gas services market has experienced significant changes over the past several months. Factors, such as shale gas production in North America, oversupply of crude oil from OPEC countries, economic slowdown in China, etc. resulted in anomalies in global crude oil demand and supply dynamics; and consequently led to a sharp decline in crude oil prices. This led to a severe downturn in the global upstream oil & gas services market and companies operating in this segment experienced a huge drop in their revenue collection. Following the global trend, current state of the APAC upstream oil & gas service industry remains volatile.
