Global Drag Reducing Agent (DRA) Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

A Drag Reducing Agent (DRA) is a chemical additive used in pipelines to reduce frictional resistance and turbulence, thereby increasing the efficiency of fluid transportation. Also known as flow improvers or pipeline friction reducers, DRAs are often applied in industries such as oil and gas to enhance the flow of liquids, such as crude oil, petroleum products, or water, through pipelines. By adding small amounts of DRA to the transported fluid, the interaction between the fluid and the pipeline＇s inner surface is altered, resulting in reduced friction and turbulence. This allows for higher flow rates, decreased energy consumption, and improved overall pipeline throughput. DRAs are particularly beneficial in long-distance pipelines where maintaining a consistent and efficient flow is crucial. While DRAs are highly effective, their application requires careful consideration of compatibility with the transported fluids and potential environmental impacts.
