The global specialty oils market is anticipated to grow from US$ 125,369.2 Mn in 2022 to US$ 175,703.8 Mn by the end of 2032, accelerating at a CAGR of 3.4% throughout the forecast period (2022-2032). Rising demand for specialty oils across various end-use industries such as automotive, power generation, pharmaceutical, food & beverages, manufacturing, transmission & distribution, etc. is providing impetus to the growth of specialty oils market. In recent years, rising electricity consumption has created enormous demand for transformer oil and the trend is likely to continue during the forecast period. This transformer oil is used to protect high-voltage electrical components used in electric utilities, including transformers, capacitors, switches, and circuit breakers. Due to its strong dielectric strength, viscosity, temperature adaptability, and other benefits, it is significantly employed as insulation between transformer windings and other parts. The market of specialty oils has been substantially influenced by the rapid installation of power generation plants, power transmission, and distribution activities. According to World Energy and Climate Statistics – Yearbook 2022, global electricity consumption grew by 5.5% in 2021, which is 4.8% above its 2019 level. Thus, rising government investments and initiatives to develop and expand energy infrastructure across the world will push the demand for specialty oils like transformer oil during the forecast period. Rapid installation of energy transmission and distribution facilities in developing countries is also anticipated to promote the sales of transformer oil which in turn will spur the growth of specialty oils market. Similarly, growing usage of specialty oils across automotive and food & beverage will expand the global specialty oils market size during the forthcoming decade. “Rapid growth of power generation and transmission infrastructure across the globe is expected to boost the demand for specialty oils over the coming decade,” says an FMI analyst.
