During the primary research process, both supply-side and demand-side stakeholders were interviewed to gather qualitative and quantitative data. Supply-side sources consisted of CEOs, VPs of Manufacturing, Chief Technology Officers, heads of regulatory affairs, and commercial directors from manufacturers of well casing, suppliers of OCTG (Oil Country Tubular Goods), and operators of steel mills. Drilling engineers, well integrity managers, procurement leads from oilfield service companies (like Schlumberger, Halliburton, and Baker Hughes), E&P operators (like ExxonMobil, Shell, BP, and Chevron), and supply chain directors from national oil companies and independent exploration companies were all sources of demand. Primary research confirmed market segmentation, confirmed timelines for capacity expansion, and gathered information on how materials are used, pricing strategies, and how procurement works.

Global market valuation was derived through revenue mapping and production volume analysis. The methodology included:
Identification of 50+ key manufacturers across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East
Product mapping across carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and composite material categories
Analysis of reported and modeled annual revenues specific to well casing and OCTG portfolios
Coverage of manufacturers representing 75-80% of global market share in 2024
Extrapolation using bottom-up (rig count × average casing consumption × ASP by region) and top-down (manufacturer revenue validation) approaches to derive segment-specific valuations for conductor casing, surface casing, intermediate casing, production casing, and liner systems
This methodology ensures robust data triangulation across industry standards, regulatory frameworks, and primary intelligence from key market participants in the oilfield services and steel manufacturing sectors.
