World demand to rise 2% annually through 2019

World demand for lubricants is projected to rise two percent yearly through 2019. The fastest gains are expected in the Asia/ Pacific region, where a greater number of motor vehicles in use and continued industrialization in large countries such as China and India will support rising demand for lubricants. Developing regions such as Central and South America and the Africa/Mideast region will also post healthy gains in response to economic growth, rising manufacturing output, and increasing motor vehicle production and ownership rates. More mature markets, such as Western Europe, Japan and the United States, are expected to stay fairly flat through 2019, as a greater availability of premium lubricant products with longer drain intervals will curb growth. Additionally, many of these developed countries enforce strict regulations on the use and disposal of lubricants, which will fuel demand for more environmentally friendly bio-based lubricants, as well as the increased use of lubricants derived from re-refined base oils.

Longer drain intervals to temper growth in engine oils

As motor vehicles continue to account for the majority of lubricant demand, rising motor vehicle ownership rates in developing countries will support increasing demand for engine oils. However, these advances will be tempered by motor vehicle manufacturer efforts to lengthen drain intervals in the motor vehicle aftermarket. Similar trends will also be evident in off-highway and stationary markets where engine manufacturers will demand higher performing lubricants capable of protecting engines in extreme environments, and with longer drain intervals, in order to facilitate reduced maintenance costs for their customers.

Process oils to be fastest growing product category

Process oils are expected to be the fastest growing product category going forward, supported by gains in manufacturing output, particularly in the Asia/Pacific region and other industrializing regions. Additionally, because process oils are often a component of a finished manufactured product, it is difficult to reduce their volume usage even as quality improves due to increasingly stringent performance requirements. Demand for hydraulic fluids, metalworking fluids, and other lubricants will also be positively impacted by improving economic conditions and rising manufacturing output in developing regions, although gains will be more limited than those seen in the process oil category. Bio-based hydraulic and metalworking fluids will exhibit healthy gains as these products can meet environmental and safety regulations.

Other markets to outpace motor vehicle aftermarket

While the motor vehicle aftermarket will remain the largest end use for lubricants, growth will trail the other major markets for lubricants. In the manufacturing market, gains will be in line with the global average as manufacturing output expands, particularly in developing regions. However, quality will continue to improve as manufacturers increasingly demand lubricants that are effective in a wider range of operating conditions. In the remaining markets, lubricant demand is expected to rise at an above-average pace. Growth will be supported by factors such as increasing mechanization in agriculture, construction, mining, and industry in developing regions; increased oil and gas production; and greater use of marine and railroad transport.

Additional Information

This study examines the global market for finished lubricants. Products covered include engine oils, process oils, hydraulic fluids, metalworking fluids, and other lubricants. Demand for finished lubricants is discussed in terms of intended markets, including the motor vehicle aftermarket, manufacturing market, and others. World base oil trends, as well as finished lubricant production and trade, are also discussed.It should also be noted that world base oil demand is discussed in terms of the location of finished lubricant end use and not of lubricant production or blending. Additionally, API Group III base oils and lubricants from which they are formulated are classified in this study as synthetic products. This differs from prior versions. Historical data for 2004, 2009, and 2014 and forecasts for 2019 and 2024 are provided for lubricant demand by product type and market for six regions and 23 individual countries. In this study, the term “demand” is used synonymously with “sales” and “consumption.” Tabular details may not add to totals due to independent rounding, and ratios may be rounded for clarity.
