South America Oil Exploration and Production market
South America Oil Exploration and Production market size is $280.79 Million in 2024 and it is forecasted to reach $401.04 Million by 2031.
The oil exploration and production market in Latin America is primarily growing due to the increasing production of oil. This region accounted for a market share of 7.82% in 2023 and is estimated to reach 7.84% in 2031. Latin America is home to many large oil-producing countries, like Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina account for most of the oil production in the region. According to The International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, in 2021 Brazil was the largest contributor to oil production in South America, the eighth largest global oil producer, the eighth largest oil consumer, and has the largest recoverable ultra-deep oil reserves in the world. In addition to the production, Brazil is placed in a leading position for the exploration and production of offshore oil due to owning the prolific pre-salt province, whose oil is of high quality, with equally high productivity of the fields. Further, Brazil´s 2021-2030 Energy Expansion Plan (PDE) forecasts that oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) investments will range from US$ 415 billion to US$ 454 billion during this period. The major petroleum and other liquid-producing countries other than Brazil in Latin America include Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, and others
