Report Overview:
Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) refers to a category of steel pipes specially designed for oil and gas exploration and production. These include oil pipes, casing pipes, drill pipes, and pipeline pipes, which are primarily seamless but also include welded pipes to a significant extent. OCTG products are classified by material properties, tensile strength, yield strength, and chemical composition. The classification follows the American Petroleum Institute (API) standards with 11 steel grades and 19 specifications, but also includes non-API grades tailored for extreme conditions such as ultra-deep wells and corrosive environments. These pipes are crucial for drilling, extracting, and transporting oil and gas efficiently and safely.
Market Value:
The global Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) market size was estimated at USD 15,030 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 24,136.93 million by 2032, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.10% during the forecast period.
North America accounted for a significant market share, with a valuation of USD 4,336.64 million in 2024, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.23% through 2032.
