Key Details About Base Oil Industry:

The base oil market is driven by strong demand from key industries, especially the automotive and industrial sectors. With advancements in vehicle technology and the need for more fuel-efficient engines, the demand for high-quality Group II and Group III base oils has increased, given their superior performance. Additionally, the push for sustainability has led to a rise in the use of bio-based and recycled base oils, further boosting the market.

Factors Influencing Base Oil Prices Trend Across Different Regions:

Base Oil Price Trend in North America:

In the second quarter of 2024, the North American base oil prices saw a significant price increase, largely due to rising crude oil prices and higher production costs influenced by geopolitical tensions and supply chain challenges. Refiners have responded by increasing base oil production, leading to a noticeable rise in output compared to the previous year. Seasonal factors, such as stockpiling for the summer driving season and hurricane preparations, also supported higher prices.

Base Oil Price Trend in APAC Regions:

Asia-Pacific (APAC): In the Asia-Pacific region, prices surged due to supply constraints caused by maintenance shutdowns and disruptions at key production facilities. The automotive and manufacturing sectors' strong demand intensified competition, particularly in China, where prices fluctuated as robust demand and cautious buying behaviors kept prices on an upward trend throughout the quarter. This reflects an overall positive market outlook.

Base Oil Price Trend in European Regions:

Europe: In Europe, the market transitioned from a bearish to a bullish trend, especially in Germany, where price volatility was significant. After a slow start due to holidays, demand rose sharply in May as operational costs and supply shortages became more apparent. Seasonal factors, including the summer driving season, also contributed to rising lubricant demand and subsequent price increases by June.

Base Oil Price Trend in Middle East Regions:

Middle East: In the Middle East, base oil prices increased significantly, driven by higher freight rates and supply shortages following Ramadan. Trading activity picked up as lubricant blenders replenished stocks in anticipation of rising sales. Additionally, ongoing geopolitical tensions, such as shipping disruptions caused by Houthi rebel attacks, further strained logistics, leading to longer shipping routes and contributing to the region's upward price trend.
