The Global Solid Control Drilling Waste Management Market was valued at USD 1.4 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.8% to reach USD 3.1 billion by 2035.
The growth is driven by increasingly stringent regulations on waste and emissions, which are encouraging operators to invest in enhanced solids control early in the drilling process. By improving cuttings and mud handling on-site, operators can reduce the volume of material requiring treatment or disposal while demonstrating compliance during audits. Growing environmental concerns, coupled with measurement, recordkeeping, and Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) programs, are fostering operational discipline that favors integrated waste solutions. Service providers are seeing higher demand for equipment capable of capturing, separating, and documenting waste streams in real time, minimizing transport requirements and proving compliance under stricter permits. Modernized state-level oilfield waste facility regulations are also raising standards for design, monitoring, groundwater protection, and closure, compelling operators to adopt more robust on-site solids control practices and maintain detailed documentation for every waste container or skip.
The onshore drilling segment held a 62.1% share in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% through 2035. Enhanced venting and flaring controls, along with LDAR programs, are driving better on-site solids control, while updated regulations for onshore waste facilities require improved operations, monitoring, and closure protocols with a strong focus on environmental safety. These measures are pushing rig crews to achieve higher dryness levels, reduce oil-on-cuttings content, utilize enclosed transfer systems, and implement digital manifests to document waste handling efficiently.
U.S Solid Control Drilling Waste Management Market held 81% share, generating USD 410 million in 2025. In the U.S., operators are adapting to evolving methane and flare compliance regulations by investing in high-efficiency shakers and dryers, advanced flare measurement tools, and digital evidence systems for leak detection and waste tracking. Service providers offering integrated solids control combined with verifiable monitoring, such as continuous pilot flame alarms, enclosed vent systems, and real-time data logging, are better positioned to help operators meet compliance deadlines without compromising reporting accuracy.
Key players in the Global Solid Control Drilling Waste Management Market include GN Solids Control, Derrick Equipment Company, Select Water Solutions, Secure Energy Services, TWMA, Schlumberger, Milestone Environmental Services, Baker Hughes, NOV Inc., Pure Environmental, Halliburton, Environmental Development Company Ltd., Augean Plc, Ridgeline Canada Inc., Clean Harbors, Inc., Tidal Logistics, Soli-Bond, Inc., Imdex Limited, Newpark Resources Inc., and Weatherford. Companies in the Solid Control Drilling Waste Management Market are strengthening their foothold through several strategic approaches. They are investing in R&D to develop more efficient and environmentally compliant solids control and waste handling equipment. Digitalization is being prioritized, with advanced data logging, real-time monitoring, and automated reporting systems improving transparency and compliance tracking. Firms are forming partnerships with operators, regulators, and service providers to expand service capabilities and enhance operational efficiency. Expansion into new geographies and the adaptation of modular, scalable solutions allow companies to serve both onshore and offshore markets.
