The smart wearables market for oil & gas industry in North America is likely to expand at a substantial pace during the forecast period, owing to high investments in exploration and production activities in the oil & gas industry in the region.
Key Drivers of Smart Wearables Market for Oil & Gas Industry
After the 2014 fall in prices of crude oil and natural gas, investments in the global oil & gas industry dropped significantly in 2015. However, after 2016, investments have been increasing gradually, due to steady demand for oil and gas products worldwide. Spending on oil and gas exploration rose by 20% in 2018, as 140 new reserves of oil and gas were discovered. The total estimate for discovered resources was around 9 billion barrels of oil equivalent in 2018, which was 10 billion barrels of oil equivalent in 2017. In these, offshore discoveries were prominent with 70% share of the volumes found, while gas resources accounted for about 40% share. In terms of discovery, Latin America is the leading region, holding 24% share of the global volumes discovered, which stand at around 2.1 billion barrels of oil equivalent. North America and Europe collectively hold 15% share of the global volumes discovered, which stand at 1.3 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Asia Pacific held 11% share, while Middle East & Africa held 9% share of the global volumes discovered in 2018.
