Hello Pascal,
Unfortunately the search offset limit does not seem to be modifiable via standard configuration settings (I'd be glad to be corrected here).
But I think you may be able to adjust it by editing extensions/CirrusSearch/includes/Searcher.php
Specifically, there is a constant there, MAX_OFFSET_LIMIT, which is set to 10000: https://github.com/wbstack/mediawiki/blob/15862d7af0c6b32e288a76c77aeae8e994... (Code may differ slightly depending on version.)
You could try setting that to a different value and see if it helps, after doing whatever is appropriate to your setup to ensure that you are not getting a cached version of the old code after editing it.
Bear in mind that an offset-based query might be slow, especially 50 at a time, as it may process earlier entries each time you make a request.
Let us know if that is doable and works for you - if not, perhaps others have ideas (or maybe there could be interest in making it a configurable). I imagine the advice might be to use WDQS, but it might not provide the snippets you're looking for.

Dear Wikibase users;
I write you since I've just encountered a problem with my wikibase. I am querying my wikibase using api.php. The query returns more than 10000 items. I process the results page by page using srlimit and sroffset parameters. The problem appears when sroffset becomes greater than 10000. Then I get this error
{"batchcomplete":"","warnings":{"search":{"*":"Could not retrieve results. Up to 10000 search results are supported, but results starting at 10000 were requested."}},"query":{"searchinfo":{"totalhits":0},"search":[]}}
The request is <My Wikibase URL>/w/api.php?action=query&format=json&list=search&srsearch=haswbstatement:%22P338=Q58%22&srprop=snippet|titlesnippet|redirecttitle&srlimit=50&sroffset=10000
Is there a way to go over this limit ?
Thank you for your answers.
