These regions have both, backward and forward integration in the marine oil market space, which makes them key regions on a global level. Other regions such as East Asia and North America also have a sizeable market share. These regions witness considerably high consumption of marine oil since they have potential end-use sectors when compared to other regions such as Latin America. Latin America is not a large producer of marine oil; end-use industries in the region are not much established, which results in a slightly low growth rate.

The Analyst’s Viewpoint

“Companies operating in the marine oil market can optimize their production to reduce costs through backward integration, to make up for the volatility in prices. Raw material procurement, which is still inconsistent, gives rise to a huge demand-supply gap at the global level. Procurement sources for extracting marine oil should be categorized in an organised manner, since climatic events and government regulations can make procurement strenuous.”

COVID-19 Impact on Marine Oil Market

The COVID-19 crisis has had a negative impact on the demand for marine oil in the first quarter of 2020. Lockdowns implemented across various countries in first and second quarters of 2020 have caused significant reduction in demand for marine oil, globally. Additionally, production of marine oil was also affected due to restricted supply of raw materials. However, the marine oil market is expected to gradually come into shape when effects of the pandemic are lessened.
