Global Base Oil Market- Share Analysis, Covid-19 Impact, Industry Growth, Trends and Driving Factors to 2030
Base Oil Market: Introduction
The
global base oil market was
valued at ~US$ 34 Bn in 2019 and is
anticipated to expand at a CAGR of ~2% during
the forecast period. Among grades, the Group I segment accounted for a major
share of the global base oil market in 2019. However, the demand for
Group I base oil is likely to decline during the forecast period, owing to
their replacement by Group II and Group III base oils. Group II base oils are
capable of substituting Group I base oils in several industrial applications at
minimal additional costs. Among applications, the automotive fluids segment
held a significant share of the global base oil market in 2019. Asia
Pacific is estimated to offer immense growth potential to the base oil market
in the next few years.
Key
Drivers and Restraints of Base Oil Market
Rise
in production and sale of automobiles is a major factor driving the global base
oil market. Base oils are used as base fluids in the formulation of various
types of lubricants. The automotive industry is a key end user of lubricants.
The automotive industry employs lubricating products such as engine oils,
transmission oils, and greases. Rapid increase in population and urbanization
is leading to consistent rise in vehicle production across the globe. According
to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), sales
of new vehicles increased from 87.5
million in 2013 to 95.05 million in 2018.

Increase
in the need for emission control in various sectors, such as marine, and
stringent norms to curb emissions of CO2, NOx, sulfur, and other particulate substances imposed by
governments of various countries as well as the European Union have compelled
oil companies to develop better methods of lubricant formulation. This has led
to increase in the adoption of Group II, Group III, naphthenic, and blended
base oils for production of lubricants. This factor promotes growth of the
global base oil market.
Asia
Pacific a Highly Lucrative Region of Base Oil Market
Asia
Pacific dominated the global base oil market in 2019. This
trend is anticipated to continue during the forecast period. Rapid
industrialization in China, India, and Indonesia is boosting the demand for
base oil in industrial applications such as process oils, hydraulic oils,
metalworking fluids, and white oils. This drives the base oil market in the
region. Most companies across the globe are shifting their manufacturing bases
toward India, Indonesia, and Vietnam, primarily due to availability of
inexpensive labor and raw materials and supportive government regulations. This
is augmenting the base oil market in these countries. Key players operating in
the base oil market in Asia Pacific include China Petrochemical Corporation,
PetroChina Company Limited, GS Caltex Corporation, Apar Industries Ltd., and SK
Lubricants Co. Ltd.

Europe
is another major region of the global base oil market. The market in the region
is expected to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period. Rise in
the demand for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) and electric vehicles (EVs) in
order to comply with government regulations on CO2 emissions is also positively
impacting the base oil market in Europe.

Oil Market: Key Developments
In June 2019, Nynas AB
launched process oils for use in low-temperature ink production and silicone
fluid substitution. By introducing NYFLEX 2120B, a hydro-treated naphthenic oil
with extremely low viscosity, the company offered a process oil ideal for use
as a printing ink distillate in heat-set formulations as well as a reliable and
cost-efficient alternative for traditional silicone fluids. In March 2018, Nynas
AB launched a new product called NYNAS T 600, which is a highly refined
naphthenic oil having viscosity of approximately 600 CST at 40°C. NYNAS T 600
is suitable for use in several industrial lubricant formulations such as gear
oils, metal rolling, and metal forming.
