DUBLIN, Dec 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Oil and Gas Storage Service Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global oil and gas storage service market to grow at a CAGR of 2.2% during the period 2016-2020.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global oil and gas storage service market for 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, the report presents the vendor landscape and a corresponding detailed profiling of the key market participants across the value chain of the market.

According to the report, one of the primary drivers in the market is geographical diversification of crude oil markets. One of the most obvious outcomes of the present era of fossil fuel is that the era of easy oil is coming to an end. This has resulted not only in inflated costs of hydrocarbon acquisition but also displaced the operations geographically. Much of the past century was witness to drilling operations being carried out at established locations in the world. The major hydrocarbon rich regions around the globe were identified in the early 20th century, and most operations were based out of these areas for the next century or so. However, things have started to change significantly now, and exploration and production (E&P) companies have started to look at unconventional avenues for exploration.

Further, the report states that one major challenge in the market is high operational cost and strategic locations for oil terminals. With an increase in demand for value-added services (VAS) and specialized professional supply chain solutions in the oil and gas storage service market, the oil and gas industry is becoming highly competitive in terms of pricing of services. Vendors in the market are under sustained pressure from customers to keep prices low. While these providers have made profits from fixed-term long contracts with customers, volatility of fuel prices has decreased profitability. Customers are demanding lower rates while renewing contracts. Independent oil storage company's customers are demanding additional services at the same price; thus, companies are facing pressure in pricing their services.
