Natural Gas Liquid Market

Natural Gas Liquid Market (Type: Ethane, Propane, Normal Butane, Isobutane, and Pentanes Plus) - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2019 - 2027

Natural Gas Liquid Market: Overview

The global natural gas liquid market is projected to register a CAGR of 6% from 2019 to 2027 (forecast period). Natural gas liquids (NGL) are liquid components of natural gas that have been separated from the gas state. Condensation, absorption, and other methods are used in the gas processing facility to separate NGLs from gas. Butane, propane, ethane, and pentanes are the most common NGLs.

The worldwide natural gas liquid market has experienced rapid growth in recent years. Natural gas liquids are increasingly being consumed in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, which is boosting the natural gas liquid market. Domestic applications of these liquids have aided in growing sales around the globe. Moreover, plastics, detergent production, and anti-freeze agents are some of the most common sectors that use natural gas liquids.

Increasing Residential Usage of NGLs Products

With increasing standards of living and environmental concerns, the usage of NGLs products is on the rise. NGLs products such as propane and butane are widely used as a fuel in furnaces for heating, cooking, as an energy source for heating systems, laundry dryers, grills, and portable stoves. The upsurge in consumption of such products for cooking, heating, and burning purposes is expected to boost the natural gas liquid market.

Natural Gas liquid Market to Benefit from Falling Natural Gas Prices Worldwide

Natural gas prices have been declining since 2009, but they fell dramatically in 2012. With a few exceptions, this lower trend in natural gas prices is likely to continue throughout the projection period. Natural gas prices have fallen due to oversupply and poor demand. However, natural gas output has not declined and is not expected to decline throughout the projection period. Natural gas processing plant operators and natural gas producers have begun to focus on natural gas liquids in order to increase profitability and maintain company operations stable, as NGLs have higher pricing and are in more demand. Thus, reduced natural gas prices and poor demand for natural gas are expected to propel the natural gas liquid market throughout the projected period.

Changing Crude Oil Prices to Adversely Impact Natural Gas Liquid Market

Crude oil prices are influenced by events that might impair oil and gas supply. These include geopolitical events and weather-related difficulties. Geopolitical events are a key element that might cause uncertainty regarding future supply or demand for oil and gas. This might lead to increased volatility in oil and gas prices. The Middle East accounts for a sizable portion of the worldwide oil and gas business. It is an extremely volatile region due to political difficulties that generate concern among investors interested in oil and gas development. Since the drop in crude oil prices in 2014, oil and gas costs have steadily risen. The fluctuation in crude oil prices has an impact on oil and gas output. This, in turn, is likely to constrain the worldwide natural gas liquid market from 2019 to 2027.

North America to Witness Rapid Growth in Natural Gas Liquid Market

North America is expected to be a promising region of the worldwide market during the projected period. The North American natural gas liquid market is expected to grow rapidly during the forecast period, owing to a large overall increase in NGL output levels (from refineries and gas plants combined). The fast expansion in natural gas output from alternative sources, including tight, shale, and coal-bed methane deposits, has increased the natural gas liquids output from gas plants in the United States.

By 2025, the U.S. market is expected to surpass 3 million barrels per day in annual consumption. The fast growth of the shale gas sector, low natural gas liquids costs and decreasing reliance on other nations for energy imports have all contributed to a significant increase in NGL usage. Additionally, supply cost savings, currency exchange rate volatility, and product monetization are expected to influence natural gas liquid market growth positively.

Key players active in the worldwide natural gas liquid market are ConocoPhillips Company, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Equinor ASA, BP Plc., SM Energy, Silver BoW resources, and Royal Dutch Shell Plc.
