Natural Gas Liquids Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2023-2030 - By Product, Technology, Grade, Application, End-user, Region: (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa)


The global natural gas liquids (NGLs) market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for cleaner and greener fuel alternatives. With rising concerns over CO2 emissions from various economic activities like manufacturing and transportation, there is a growing emphasis on transitioning to cleaner energy sources. NGLs, including ethane, propane, butane, isobutane, and pentane, offer versatile applications across industrial, residential, commercial, and transportation sectors, making them an essential part of the clean energy landscape.

Environmental Concerns and Demand for Greener Fuel
CO2 emissions have become a major global concern, with emissions increasing by 40% from 2018 to 2020, as per the International Energy Agency. The transportation industry alone accounted for nearly one-quarter of total emissions in 2020, highlighting the need for cleaner fuel alternatives. NGLs are emerging as a viable option, as they have lower carbon intensities compared to traditional fossil fuels like heating oil and coal.

Rising Demand for NGLs in Residential Sector
The residential sector is expected to witness rapid growth in the natural gas liquids market due to increasing living standards and environmental consciousness. NGLs like propane and butane find extensive use as heating and cooking fuels, as well as energy sources for various household appliances. The market for NGLs is expected to benefit from the escalating demand for these products for cooking, heating, and other applications. Additionally, NGLs are increasingly being utilized in the petrochemical industry, including the construction of large-scale ethylene crackers, further boosting market growth.

North America Leading the Way
North America is poised to remain a key region in the global natural gas liquids market, with significant growth projected in the coming years. The region has witnessed a substantial increase in NGL production, mainly driven by the rapid expansion of natural gas supply from unconventional sources such as tight, shale, and coal-bed methane deposits. This has led to a surge in NGL utilization, supported by the rise of the shale gas industry, low NGL prices, and reduced reliance on energy imports. Focus on national energy security and self-sufficiency, along with efforts to boost NGL usage in the energy mix, will further stimulate the market in this region.

Competitive Landscape
Major players in the global natural gas liquids market include BP P.L.C., POSCO International Corporation, ConocoPhillips Company, Devon Energy Corporation, Chevron Corporation, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Lukoil, Range Resources Corporation, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Saudi Arabian Oil Co., and Shell Plc. These companies are actively investing in the development and expansion of NGL projects to meet the growing demand for cleaner energy solutions.
