Market Dynamics

Advancements in Synthetic Compressor Oils Enhance Durability and Productivity of Compressed Air Systems

The synthetic compressor provides excellent performance in various conditions. It also offers lubrication and friction on compressor components. These factors lead the performance efficiency and work well in high temperatures without breaking down. Synthetic oil has the advantage that oil can even flow in cold temperatures.

For instance, on 28 October 2022, ENEOS Motor Oil, Japan's leading oil company, launched its range of lubricants for both cars and motorcycles in the Philippine market. The company unveiled its products at the 2022 Inside Racing Performance and Lifestyle Expo held at the World Trade Center in Pasay City. The product lineup includes ultra-modern and environmentally-friendly synthetic motor oils for gasoline and diesel-powered cars, high-performance synthetic motor oils and highly-refined mineral-based oils for gasoline and diesel engines.
Increased Demand for Petrochemical Products Drives Growth of Compressor Oil in the Industry

The increased demand of petrochemical products that includes polymers, plastics and resins led to increased production capacity. As this production requires efficient compressor systems, which increases the demand for compressor oils. Petrochemical plants in which compressor is a critical component that include various processes such as air supply, and gas compressor. Petrochemicals are highly dependent upon compressor oil quality as they provide excellent lubrications from corrosion and overheating.

For instance, on 11 May 2023, Burckhardt Compression, a global leader in compressor systems completed a project for a petrochemical company that involve an LDPE compressor. This project provides support to lubrication units and gas pipes and they also collaborated with the motor OEM for assessment and sourcing of spare parts, this factor leads to the growth of compressor oil in the petrochemical industry.

Contamination and Compatibility Issues Impacting Compressor Oil 

Different types of compressors and applications require specific types of compressor oil. Using the wrong type of oil can lead to compatibility issues with certain materials used in the compressor's construction. For example, some compressor oils may not be compatible with certain seal materials, resulting in seal degradation over time. This can lead to leaks and reduced efficiency in the compressor.

Compressor oil can become contaminated with dirt, moisture, and other particles during its operation. Contaminated oil can impact the performance and growth of the compressor. Dirt particles in the oil can cause abrasive wear on components, leading to increased friction and potential damage to critical parts such as bearings, cylinder walls and pistons.

Segmentation Analysis

The global compressor oil is segmented based on compressor type, base oil, applications, end-user and region.

Increasing Demand for Gas Compressors Driven by Rising Energy Consumption and Shift Towards Cleaner Energy Sources

The compressor oil market holds a major share of the global compressor oil market and countries like China India and Japan have shown the highest growth in the market as consumption of energy increases day by day, which leads to increased demand for natural gas. The gas compressor works efficiently and maintains a pressure flow rate. Gas compressors are used in various industries such as petrochemicals, oil and gas, and power generation. As consumers are shifting their demand towards natural gas and cleaner energy resources, this factor increases the demand for gas compressors in the compressor oil market.

For instance, on 30 Jun 2023, Petrofac oilfield service firm won the award that include $700 million contract by Abu Dhabi National Oil Company that undertake work at Habshan Complex for the construction of a new gas compressor plant. The project aims to enhance the quality and capacity of gas compression in order to meet the demand for gas in UAE.
