Terminal
Fuel Additives: Introduction
·
Increasing demand of hydrocarbon fuels for heat and power
generation from transportation and power generation industries for domestic and
industrial power generation has led to the development of a large range of fuel
additives to meet industry requirements. Fuel additive can be employed as a
standalone single product to solve certain performance related issues. It can
also be combined with other similar products to form a multi-functional
performance enhancement package to be added to the fuel.
·
Terminal operations need fuel additives, as these additives help
boost profitability of operations by increasing the market value of crude oils,
intermediates, or refined products. Terminal operations require fuel additives
that are able to enhance a broad range of fuels and can perform outstandingly
in harsh environments. Terminal fuel additives need to be specifically
engineered to meet the high demand for terminal business.
Key
Drivers and Restraints of Global Terminal Fuel Additives Market
·
Companies are mandated to reduce carbon emissions owing to the
adoption of stringent environmental laws. This can be achieved by adding more
efficient and effective fuel additives. This is driving the terminal
fuel additives market.
·
Rise in demand for alternate fuels is expected to restrain the
terminal fuel additives market
Terminal
Fuel Additives: Additive Type Segment
·
Based on additive type, the terminal fuel additives market can
be divided into antioxidants, cold flow improvers, octane improver, cetane
improvers, fuel lubricity improvers, pour point depressants, corrosion
inhibitors, and others. The existence of highly olefinic cracked compounds in
refined products can cause darkening, short induction period, and can also
result in gum formation, which can be avoided by utilizing antioxidants that
improve fuel stability.
·
Cold flow improvers are additives that help improve low
temperature handling properties of crude oils, residual oils, and petroleum
fuels. Octane improver additives are added to increase the octane value of
gasoline in order to protect the engine from knocking.
·
Cetane improver additives are added to diesel fuel for enhancing
the cetane number to meet the required standards
·
Fuel lubricity improvers are added to low sulfur containing
middle distillates to meet the required fuel standards. Pour point depressants
are additives that help prevent sedimentation and help in meeting pipeline
requirements.
·
Corrosion inhibitors are added to the fuel to prevent corrosion
of terminal equipment and storage. The others segment includes additives such
as antistatic additives, hydrogen sulfide scavengers, cloud point depressant,
and hazers

segmented into gasoline, crude oil, diesel, jet fuel, and others
Covid-19
Impact on Terminal Fuel Additives Market
·
On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations
Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared
the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency
of international concern. Originating in China, the virus has spread to at
least 213 countries and territories around the world.
·
Several governments and private sector businesses are operating
at a limited capacity or have ceased operations completely due to recent events
surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic
·
Manufacturing of various consumer goods and other products
across the globe came to a halt due to the unavailability of raw materials,
shortage of labor, and other reasons. This is expected to hamper the terminal
fuel additives market.

North
America to Dominate Terminal Fuel Additives Market
·
North America is anticipated to dominate the global terminal
fuel additives market during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to the
presence of stringent environmental regulations in the region.
·
In terms of market share, Europe is likely to follow North
America in the global terminal fuel additives market. However, the market in
Asia Pacific is projected to expand at a significant pace during the forecast
period, due to increase in adoption of stringent environmental laws in the region,
especially in developing economies such as China and India.
