Unstable Supply of Crude Oil to Hamper the Growth of the Base Oil Market

There are various geo-political challenges surrounding the supply of crude oil. These challenges affect the base oil significantly, as base oil are refined derivatives of crude oil. Additionally, as base oil are essential for manufacturing various products in major industries such as automotive, their supply is often controlled with long term contracts. The unstable supply and fixed nature of supply of base oil is expected to put extreme pressure on pricing and profits in the base oil market. Additionally, major automotive markets such as the United States have recently emerged from a major slowdown in the economy and falling auto sales. Additionally, rising environment-friendly trends such as electric vehicles can also negatively affect the market during the forecast period. All these factors have largely limited the growth prediction of the global base oil market during the forecast period.

Growing Demand in the Automotive Industry to Propel Growth

Growing demand in automotive industry due to stringent environment regulations related to performance improvements are expected to drive growth for the base oil market. The automotive industry requires various lubricants from the base oil market. Their qualities including oxidation, viscosity, seal compatibility, pour point, thermal stability, and additive solubility are essential for end-use in automotive as well as in many industrial applications.

While increasing regulations are phasing out demand for group 1 base oils. These regulations are expected to shift demand progressively towards group II and III. These groups of oils in the base oil market undergo a more rigorous hydrocracking process. These are also priced similar to oils in group I. Hence, they make for ideal replacements in the base oil market.
