According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “Lubricants Market," The lubricants market was valued at $123.8 billion in 2021, and is estimated to reach $168.2 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 3.2% from 2022 to 2031.
A lubricant refers to any substance that is physically integrated for the purpose of reducing friction between two or more moving surfaces. Lubricants help prevent material degradation, erosion, corrosion and rust formation on metallic surfaces. The lubricant used can be a fluid, solid, or plastic substance.
Increasing demand for vehicles and their spare parts is anticipated to fuel the demand for automotive oils and greases during the forecast period. The major economic recovery in North America and Europe is expected to boost the consumer vehicles segment, which, in turn, is a boon for the market. Typical lubricants manufacturers use crude oil, tight oil, and other additives to formulate all types of lubricants. Furthermore, lubricants are majorly used as diesel engine oils, gearbox & transmissions in passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and motorcycle segments of the automotive sector. Over the projection period, rising auto sales are anticipated to boost global industry growth. Countries such as India, China, the U.S., and Brazil are principally responsible for the increase in global vehicle sales.
The global Lubricants market is segmented on the basis of product type, base oil, end-use industry and region.
On the basis of product type, the engine oil segment dominated the global lubricant market in terms of revenue, in 2021, and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. This is attributed to the fact that the engine oil lubricates the engine parts for its efficient movement, thereby reducing the extent of metal contact, friction, and heat generation within the engine. In addition, cleaning & cooling the engine parts, sealing the gaps, and rust prevention are the other functions carried out by the engine oil.
On the basis of base oil, the mineral segment dominated the global lubricant market in terms of revenue in 2021, owing to the fact that mineral is used in a variety of industries, including automotive, textile, construction, industrial, medical, pharmaceutical, electronics, and consumer goods, as a result of which demand is constantly increasing.
On the basis of end-use industry, the automotive and other transportation segment dominated the global lubricant market in terms of revenue, in 2021. The passenger cars offer maximum market potential in the automotive lubricant market, owing to increase in demand for these cars and general utility vehicles globally, with rise in public transportation expenditure. For instance, according to the Association des Constructeurs Européens d'Automobiles (ACEA) in 2021, 79.1 million motor vehicles were produced around the world, an increase of 1.3% compared to 2020.
On the basis of region, Asia-Pacific dominated the global lubricant market in terms of revenue, in 2021, owing to increase in urbanization in emerging countries.
The major players operating in the industry include British Petroleum, Chevron Corp, ExxonMobil Corp, Marathon Petroleum Corporation, Neste OYJ, Philips 66 Company, Saudi Aramco, Shell Co, Sinopec Corp, and S-Oil Corporation. These players have adopted product launch, acquisition, and business expansion as their key strategies to increase their market shares.
