As per recent analysis done by Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, the global marine lubricant market is estimated to surpass a valuation of US$ 7.1 billion by 2032-end.
Marine lubricants protect and enhance the efficiency of engines and equipment in the shipping industry. They protect components at high temperatures, allow optimum performance in operations, extend shelf life, enhance protection against mechanical wear, and reduce cold corrosion.
Increasing international trade activities and shipbuilding developments are driving demand for marine lubricants. International sea trading contributes to almost 30% of global transportation, and is increasing. As a result, the biodegradability of marine lubricants is highlighted owing to their benefits such as improved safety, constant viscosity, and low emission rates.
Additionally, developments in the lubricant industry and shift from the use of additives, which include heavy metals such as antimony and lead, towards environmental-friendly additives, are driving the growth of marine lubricants. Also, improvements in ship sizes and high demand for ultra-large container ships with the rise in trade volumes have led to higher demand for marine lubricants.
