Wellhead Equipment Market: Overview
Wellhead equipment is generally used to connect the casing and tubing to a gas or oil pipeline. This pipe casing is a permanent installation. The wellhead is a device with rim that attaches to the casing and is used to seal the well and suspend the casing strings. There are multiple components of wellhead equipment such as crosses, tees, tubing head spools, casing spools, and casing heads among others. Usually, these multiple pieces are integrated together to form a wellhead equipment assembly called as ‘Christmas tree’

Global Wellhead Equipment Market: Notable Developments
In 2016, Ramboll did an intensive research for the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate. The focus of the study was the development of unmanned wellhead platform. Such platform is currently in use in the North Sea while several others are under consideration for different licenses on the Norwegian costal shelf. Ramboll’s research provide both pros and cons of the concept and concluded that unmanned wellhead platforms may offer more efficient development solutions with regards to production and overall expense.
In February 2018, Subsea 7 and Schlumberger Ltd sat together to with a motive to form a joint venture. The idea was to build upon the brand name of Subsea Integration Alliance that was set up in 2015. Currently, the Subsea Intelligence Alliance combines the subsea umbilical, riser, and flowline systems (SURF) provided by Subsea 7 with the subsurface expertise, processing systems, and production systems provide by OneSubsea.
In 2019, Bake Hughes heavily invested in enhancing their current digital prowess. Their main focus on building credible and reliable technologies powered with AI, machine learning, and IoT. With this investment the company is planning to give an extra edge to its existing expertise in oil and gas industry.
