22nd Annual Directional Drilling Survey
scarcity of certain rig sizes.
The most common pipe installed via
HDD remains HDPE, with a 49.1-percent
market share; PVC followed at 26.5 percent.
Original equipment manufacturers
(OEMs) in the HDD tooling and drill
pipe sectors play a vital role with many
contractors. About 43.9 percent of
downhole tooling is purchased from
OEMs and 48.5 percent of drill pipe.
Used rigs remain a major factor for
contractors, especially those needing to augment
their existing fleets, and for new contractor
entrants into the market. For 2021,
68 percent of the respondents have bought
used units at one time or another. About 57
percent of used rig purchases are anticipated
to be in the smaller rig market rigs (under
40,000 pounds of pullback force).
The survey also asked about the most
important qualities contractors seek from
their manufacturer and supplier partners.
As it has been for several years, " service "
is the most coveted attribute, cited by
41.9 percent of respondents, followed by
" quality " at 33.6 percent. *
