Drilling Data Management Systems Global Market Report 2025

The drilling data management systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.95 billion in 2024 to $3.31 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased global oil and gas exploration activities, the adoption of real-time data monitoring systems, the expansion of deepwater and unconventional drilling projects, the implementation of digital oilfield technologies, and a rise in well failures and blowouts necessitating better data management.

The drilling data management systems market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.17 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to a heightened focus on operational efficiency, greater emphasis on ESG compliance, rising investments in unconventional resource development, growing demand for real-time data processing, and increasing global demand for natural gas. Major trends in the forecast period include the integration of AI and machine learning, adoption of digital twin technology, a push toward standardization and system interoperability, the use of predictive analytics for monitoring downhole conditions, and the implementation of automated reporting and decision support systems.

The rising drilling activities in offshore and onshore oil and gas sectors are expected to drive the growth of the drilling data management systems market. Offshore and onshore oil and gas refer to the extraction of petroleum resources from beneath the ocean floor and land surface, respectively. These drilling activities are increasing as global energy demand grows and countries aim to secure stable energy supplies to support industrial expansion and urbanization. Drilling data management systems are vital in these operations, offering real-time monitoring, improving safety, reducing operational costs, and enabling data-driven decision-making for more efficient and accurate drilling processes. For example, in October 2024, DrillingContractor, a US-based drilling services provider, reported that liquid production is expected to grow from 102.4 million barrels per day in 2024 to 108.4 million barrels per day by 2028. Similarly, gas production is forecasted to rise from 68.1 million barrels per day to 73.4 million barrels per day during the same period. Therefore, the growing drilling activities in oil and gas are boosting demand for advanced drilling data management systems.

Leading companies in the drilling data management systems market are prioritizing the development of AI-powered platforms to optimize performance and improve operational efficiency. An AI-powered drilling data platform utilizes artificial intelligence to analyze real-time data, support predictive maintenance, and enhance decision-making in drilling operations. For instance, in January 2022, Epiroc AB, a Sweden-based manufacturer of mining and infrastructure equipment, launched Mobius for Drills, a digital platform designed to centralize and optimize drilling workflows in mining operations. This solution consolidates data from multiple drill rigs, regardless of brand, and supports various drilling modes including manual, teleoperated, semi-autonomous, and fully autonomous operations. It provides real-time dashboards that allow users to monitor drill usage, track performance, manage consumables, and compare planned versus actual outcomes.

In November 2024, acQuire Technology Solutions, an Australia-based provider of information management software, acquired BlackFox Tech Inc. for an undisclosed sum. The acquisition is intended to strengthen acQuire’s offering in drilling data management by integrating BlackFox’s advanced cloud-based system into its existing product suite. This integration will help mining and drilling companies gain deeper insights, improve productivity, and make better data-driven decisions. BlackFox Tech Inc., based in the United States, specializes in innovative drilling data management technologies.
