The global naphtha market size is expected to reach USD 254.3 billion by 2030, and projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing global demand for transportation fuel is expected to drive growth. Demand is also being driven by its robust use for hydrocarbon cracking process in the petrochemical industry.
Naphtha is an essential part of hydrocarbon cracking process, which is conducted under extreme pressure and heat, as it exhibits superior heat resistant properties. Various environmental regulations and region dependent pricing also make the choice for usage of naphtha materials in the production process.The global demand is estimated to be worth USD 254.3 billion by 2030.
Chemical feedstock was the largest application of naphtha accounting for 69.93% of the total market share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% over the forecast period. Chemical feedstock is used for steam cracking process which produces gasoline. Growing demand for gasoline is expected to subsequently bolster demand. Lighter grades of the product are used for petrochemical steaming process, which produces rubber, olefins, polymers and aromatics.
