Major Market Drivers for Refinery Catalyst Market

Increasing demand for refined petroleum products worldwide

Refineries worldwide are operating at high capacity to meet the increasing demand for various refined petroleum products like gasoline, diesel, jet fuel etc. driven by factors like growing population, rising personal incomes, rapid urbanization and industrialization globally which is driving the demand for refined products and thus refinery catalysts used in refining processes. According to International Energy Agency, worldwide demand for refined petroleum products is expected to grow by around 11% between 2017-2040 which will drive the demand for refinery catalysts used in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydroprocessing and other refining units.

Stringent environmental regulations for sulfur removal from transportation fuels

Environmental agencies worldwide have implemented stringent sulfur standards for transportation fuels like gasoline and diesel to reduce vehicular emissions and improve air quality. For example, US EPA has reduced the sulfur content limit in gasoline from 300 ppm to 80 ppm in 2006 and further to 10 ppm in 2011. Similarly, sulfur content limit in diesel was reduced from 500 ppm to 15 ppm. Refineries require advanced desulfurization catalysts like hydrotreating and hydrocracking catalysts to meet these stringent sulfur standards which is driving the demand for specialty refinery catalysts in developed markets.

Potential Market Restrain for Refinery Catalyst Market

Volatility in crude oil prices impacts refining margins

Crude oil is the major raw material for refineries accounting for over 75% of the total operating costs. Frequent and unpredictability fluctuations in international crude oil prices impacts refining margins of refineries. When crude oil prices are high, margins come under pressure reducing refinery throughputs and catalyst usage. For example, during 2014-16, due to crash in crude oil prices, many refineries delayed their expansion plans or shutdown temporarily affecting the demand for refinery catalysts. Thus, volatility in crude oil prices poses a potential risk to stable demand for refinery catalysts.

Opportunity for Growth in Refinery Catalyst Market

Increasing demand for biofuels blending

Many countries have introduced blending mandates for transportation biofuels like ethanol and biodiesel to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and curb emissions. For example, European Union has adopted a target of minimum 10% blend of biofuels in transportation fuels by 2020. Similarly, US has a blending target of minimum 15 billion gallons of biofuels by 2022. Increased biofuels blending especially for advanced biofuels will require refineries to install dedicated biorefinery units leading to new opportunity for specialty biofuels catalysts.

Major Market Trend in Refinery Catalyst Market

Growing demand for specialty catalysts

With constantly evolving market dynamics, environmental regulations and diversifying product slate, refineries increasingly require catalyst formulation with enhanced activity, selectivity and stability. This has led to faster replacement rate of conventional catalysts with value added specialty catalysts that optimize refining processes with minimal emissions and by-products. Growing popularity of specialty refinery catalysts like bi-functional FCC catalysts, desulfurization catalysts with extended life, hydrocracking catalysts etc. indicate an upgradation trend in refinery catalyst marketplace globally.
