Refinery Catalyst Market Outlook

Up from the 2022 valuation of around US$10.2 Bn, the global refinery catalyst market is poised to attain revenue worth US$15 Bn by 2030-end. The report tracks the growth outlook with close examination of all the major growth indiactors.

Market Analysis in Brief

One of the biggest opportunities for the refinery catalyst industry lies in the increased refinery capacity. Since the previous few years, there has been a steady increase in demand for fuels, particularly cleaner fuels. Therefore, expanding the capabilities of already existing refineries and building new petroleum refineries in high-demand regions could further propel the refinery catalyst market. The global transition towards biofuel/green fuel is anticipated to reduce demand for goods derived from fossil fuels, which will directly influence the use of refinery catalysts because the less refined products that are consumed, the less catalyst is used in the refinery.

Growth Drivers

Energy Security Concerns Around Transportation Fuel 

Over 700 oil refineries are now in operation worldwide. These refineries are not dispersed uniformly throughout the world, though. Refineries vary in terms of the kinds of technology they use to process oil (refinery complexity), the installed and used capacity for doing so, and more recently, the technological capability for producing highly purified oil products and highly treated refinery pollutants.

As they greatly speed up the reaction rate, refinery catalysts are commonly employed in petroleum refining processes to eliminate or reduce the number of contaminants like nitrogen, and sulphur from crude oil. Refinery catalyst demand has increased recently due to increasingly strict fuel economy rules across the globe. According to estimates, the need for refinery catalysts would rise significantly throughout the forecast period, in turn boosting the growth of the refinery catalyst market.

Notable Refinery Expansion, and Stringent Emission Regulations

The increased demand for cleaner fuels and significant expansions in refining capacity are projected to be the driving forces behind the growth of the petroleum refining market. The market for refinery catalysts is projected to benefit from the processing of heavier feedstock in refineries. Over the next few years, significant capacity expansions are anticipated.

The need for refining catalysts to produce sweet fuel is anticipated to rise as environmental regulations for high-speed diesel and petrol become more stringent. Less sulphur or other contaminants are present in processed oil when it is sweeter, which contributes to its low environmental impact. As more diesel and petrol will be needed, an annual increase in car sales is projected to increase the demand, thereby fostering the refinery catalyst market expansion.

Refiners are forced to boost their production capacities because of the expanding vehicle fleet, which leads to the highest possible gasoline sales. During the forecasting period, the tendency is anticipated to persist. As a result, refineries may generate a lot of fuel and adhere to national standards like BS-IV as well as international standards like Euro-6. The current output of refineries is predicted to increase with an increase in sales or exports to nations with high fuel demand.

Overview of Key Segments

FCC Unit Remains the Key Refinery Unit for Catalyst Consumption

In terms of refinery type, the global refinery catalyst market has been segregated as fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydrocracking, H-oil unit, catalytic reforming, alkylation, and hydrotreating. The hydrotreating segment is further divided into naphtha, and distillate. In 2022, the FCC segment dominated the market and constituted 44.3% share by value. It is one of the major refining processes in the petroleum refining industry and is responsible for the production of gasoline.

The demand for refinery catalysts, primarily in FCC, is estimated to increase rapidly in refineries due to the rising demand for high octane gasoline across the globe. In terms of revenue, the FCC refining unit segment is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.1% between 2023 and 2030.

Hydrocracking units are highly driven by diesel production. Increasing consumption of diesel is one of the major factors driving the demand for hydrocracking catalysts. New hydrocracking projects are expected to commence in Middle East and Africa in the years to come. This is likely to create immense market opportunities for the refinery catalyst market in the next few years.

Zeolites Consumption Likely to Grow at a Higher Pace

In terms of catalyst type, the global refinery catalyst market has been segregated as zeolites, molybdenum, cobalt, nickel, and others. In 2022, the nickel segment dominated the market and constituted 28.4% share by value. About 31% of the total nickel produced in the US was employed in the refinery catalysts industry in 2021. The nickel segment is estimated to expand at a significant CAGR during the forecast period.

In terms of revenue, molybdenum is estimated to be a rapidly growing segment of the refinery catalyst market owing to its wide range of applications. Approximately 17% of the total molybdenum produced is consumed by refineries, while other go in different applications.

FCC operations account for almost 95% of the total zeolite consumption. Zeolites was a highly attractive segment of the refinery catalyst market in 2022. In terms of volume, it is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period.

Growth Opportunities Across Regions

Asia Pacific Will Maintain Dominance Through 2030

North America, and Asia Pacific are expected to be the major consumers of refinery catalysts in line with the rising demand for fuels with low levels of impurities. In 2022, Asia Pacific dominated the global refinery catalyst market, constituting 33% share of the market valuation. The market for hydrocracking and distillate hydrotreating catalysts in Asia Pacific is anticipated to increase in the light of the regulatory limits on diesel in rapidly developing nations like China, and India.

Several catalytic cracking units were added by several refineries in Asia Pacific between 2015 and 2020. China currently accounts for more than 65% of the world's total zeolites production. In recent years, numerous reforming units have been founded in Malaysia, Singapore, and Japan. Meeting the increasing domestic demand for fuels is the main driving force behind these expansions. Additionally, the refinery catalyst market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow following the region's strong demand for cleaner diesel, and mounting auto sales.

Vehicles that comply with the Euro-6 standards are actively manufactured in developed North American nations including the US, and Canada. The region's need for refinery catalysts would certainly expand in the next years because of the expansion in shale gas production in North America.

Russia-centric Developments Pick Pace in Europe

In Europe, the recent Russia-Ukraine unrest has resulted in dramatically lowered supply of crude oil from Russia to the other European nations. This has impacted the demand for refinery catalysts. Various refining projects are being implemented in Russia to meet the rising demand for refinery catalysts. Also, due to strict environmental restrictions and an increase in the demand for biofuels in European nations, refining products are underutilised in Europe compared to other countries. Throughout the projection period, this tendency is probably going to persist.

Several refineries based in Europe had to shut down due to the drop in demand for diesel, and petrol. The shifting trend toward biofuels and renewables is expected to cause the total refinery catalyst market in Europe to observe a gradual pace. To address the increased demand for refinery catalysts in Europe, several refining projects are being set up in Russia. According to estimates, the sulphur content of Russia’s fuels will drop down to 50 ppm during the next five years, giving the nation a prospective market for refinery catalysts in Europe.

Our Research Methodology

Considering the volatility of business today, traditional approaches to strategizing a game plan can be unfruitful if not detrimental. True ambiguity is no way to determine a forecast. A myriad of predetermined factors must be accounted for such as the degree of risk involved, the magnitude of circumstances, as well as conditions or consequences that are not known or unpredictable. To circumvent binary views that cast uncertainty, the application of market research intelligence to strategically posture, move, and enable actionable outcomes is necessary.
