Technavio's market study identifies the increase in offshore exploration and production investments to be one of the primary growth factors for the offshore lubricants market. Oil and gas companies are investing significantly in offshore oil and gas reserves to cater to the increasing demand for energy and the depletion of onshore reserves. This increase in drilling activities and the rising demand from offshore oil rigs and floating production storage and offloading (FPSO), will contribute to the demand for offshore lubricants market. Our market research analysts estimate that this market will grow steadily at a CAGR of around 4% by 2021.
Manufacturers are increasingly opting to use bio-based raw materials to fulfill the increasing demand for sustainable products. Several initiatives launched towards sustainability are encouraging the use of environment-friendly lubricants such as bio-based lubricants that help in reducing VOCs and the toxicity of gases. Bio-based offshore lubricants and green and sustainable offshore lubricants and other energy-saving resin systems are increasingly preferred in developing and developed countries. According to this market research and analysis, the rise in demand for bio-based lubricants will be one of the key trends that will gain traction in the offshore lubricants market.
