The Oilfield Communications market is segmented on the basis of service, communication network, field site, solution, and region. Based on service, the market is further bifurcated into professional service and managed service. Based on communication networks, the market is segmented into cellular communication network, VSAT communication network, fiber optic-based communication network, microwave communication network and tetra communication network. Based on the field site, the market is bifurcated into onshore communications and offshore communications. The solution segment is further categorized into M2M communication, asset performance communication, unified communication, VoIP solutions, video conferencing, pipeline supervisory control and data acquisition, fleet management communication, oilfield to control centre data communication, and Wi-Fi hotspot.

Based on communication network, the microwave communication network segment is expected to dominate the global oilfield communication market during the forecast period owing to its ability to operate without any fiber-optic infrastructure and the relative ease of setting up a wireless network. The standard installation and marine-grade microwave communication network is a much more cost-effective, highly reliable and easily available solution for offshore-to-land and offshore-to-offshore connectivity than optical fiber. The microwave segment greatly surpasses the capacity and latency capabilities of traditional satellite communications. Furthermore, the increasing advancement in the integrated operations (IO) coupled with highly reliable microwave equipment with customized antenna stabilization technologies are more reliable to utilize this application. Thus, the microwave communication network segment is growing, enabling the growth of global oilfield communications market during the forecast period.

Based on field site, the offshore communications segment is expected to dominate in the global oilfield communication market. The high growth of this segment is attributed to the increasing adoption of cloud-based infrastructure by enterprises that are seeking to analyze and manage the supply chain process, saving CapEx by automating many operations and monitoring customer data. Moreover, the offshore oil and gas exploration continues to expand at a rapid pace post Covid-19 pandemic, many offshore rigs, ships, floating storage and offload facilities and other vessels are increasingly performing the coordination between offshore vessels and with onshore facilities. Furthermore, advancements in industrial technology, changes in business models and tighter regulatory constraints necessitate closer monitoring, more remote control, and maintenance of equipment, and more offloading of tasks and personnel from offshore to onshore locations. These trends are greatly in demand for capacity of offshore communications, thus leading to the higher deployment of offshore communications in the global oilfield communications market.
