The global naphtha market size was USD 282.0 Billion in 2022 and is expected to register a rapid revenue CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA, June 4, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global naphtha market, valued at USD 282.0 billion in 2022, is projected to experience a steady growth rate with a (CAGR) of 3.8% through the forecast period. This growth is largely driven by increasing demand for naphtha in the petrochemical industry and the rising need for olefin-rich naphtha.

Key Market Drivers

Naphtha is a crucial feedstock in the petrochemical industry, accounting for approximately half of its production use. It plays a vital role in synthesizing essential chemicals like propylene, butadiene, ethylene, and benzene. An example of the growing demand is S-Oil Corp’s recent project in South Korea, which involves a naphtha-fueled steam cracker capable of producing 180,000 tons of ethylene annually. The petrochemical complex, expected to be operational by 2026, will produce up to 3.2 million tons of core petrochemical raw materials each year.

The market also benefits from the application of olefin-rich naphtha in producing high-octane, low-cost diesel. Additionally, naphtha's use as a solvent in a variety of industries, including cleaning agents, asphalt, paints, and varnishes, further fuels its demand.

Technological Advancements

Technological advancements are another significant factor driving market growth. For instance, Honeywell UOP’s introduction of the 'Kerosene Uncracking' method in India demonstrates the continuous innovation within the industry, enhancing the efficiency of converting kerosene into naphtha.

Market Restraints

Despite the positive growth outlook, the market faces challenges. Fluctuating crude oil prices pose a significant risk to market stability. Additionally, the shift towards cheaper alternatives such as Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and natural gas liquids could potentially limit the market's growth. Venezuela’s PDV LLC, for example, has constructed small pipelines to address naphtha shortages affecting heavy crude production and export.

Segment Insights

Naphtha Types: The market is segmented into light and heavy naphtha. Heavy naphtha dominated the market in 2022 due to its extensive applications in producing petrochemicals and fuel products. The growing popularity of shale gas has also increased the demand for heavy naphtha as a solvent in crude oil transportation.

Processes: The naphtha market is divided into naphtha reforming, steam cracking, gasoline blending, and others. Steam cracking is expected to show significant growth due to its use in producing olefins and high-octane gasoline feedstock. Projects like Saudi Aramco’s Ras Tanura refinery, aimed at improving environmental standards, highlight the ongoing investments in steam cracking technology.

End-Use: The petrochemicals segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share. The increasing demand for synthetic materials and plastics, coupled with advancements in refining processes, drives this growth. Notably, the partnership between Petronas and Saudi Aramco in Malaysia’s RAPID project underscores the importance of naphtha in producing a wide array of petrochemicals.
