The alpha olefins market is expected to grow from USD 8.6 billion in 2020 to USD 13.7 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period 2021-2028.
Alkenes (also known as olefins) having the chemical formula CxH2x with a double bond at the primary or alpha (α) position make up the alpha-olefins family of organic compounds. First and foremost, the presence of a double bond in this location boosts the reactivity of the molecule, making it useful for a wide range of applications. The two types of alpha-olefins are branched and linear alpha-olefins (or normal). Chemically, branched alpha-olefins with a branch at the second (vinylidene) or third carbon number differ significantly from linear alpha-olefins and those with branches at the fourth carbon number and beyond. Alpha olefins are used to make polyethylene. As a result, the increased demand for polyethylene in the plastic industry is expected to fuel the market for alpha olefins.
Furthermore, investments in various cracker joint venture projects, as well as abundant low-cost ethane from shale gas resources in the United States, are likely to strengthen raw material supply for alpha-olefin synthesis, hence driving the market's development. Furthermore, in the Middle East, increased oilfield activities and petrochemical output have bolstered ethylen production. Tight environmental laws, on the other hand, have increased the cost of shale gas extraction, affecting the global alpha olefins business. Furthermore, the rising usage of electric automobiles is expected to have a substantial impact on global lubricant consumption throughout the forecast period, influencing the growth of the alpha olefins market.
The globalalpha olefins market is divided into three categories: product, application and region. The market has been divided into the following categories based on product: 1-Butene, 1-Hexene, 1-Octene, 1-Decene, 1-Dodecene and Others. On the basis of the application segment, the market is divided into Polyethylene, Detergent Alcohol, Synthetic Lubricant and Others.
The market has been divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America. The North America held the largest market share in 2020. Over the projected period, North America is estimated to have the highest market share in the alpha olefins market, followed by Europe. The significant growth in shale gas production has boosted the petrochemical processing sector in North America, which is pushing alpha olefin output in the area. Furthermore, a large increase in oil & gas investments is likely to produce large demand for oilfield chemicals, which is likely to be one of the fundamental drivers driving regional development throughout the projection period.
Some of the notable players in the market are Chevron Phillips Chemical Company (U.S.), Royal Dutch Shell (The Netherlands), Ineos (Switzerland), Evonik Industries (Germany), Linear Alpha Olefins (LAO), EVX Midstream Partners LLC, SABIC (Saudi Arabia), Sasol (South Africa), PJSC Nizhnekamskneftekhim (Russia), The Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), Cairn Energy PLC, ExxonMobil (U.S.), JAM Petrochemicals Company (Iran), Cheiron Petroleum Corporation, among others. The acquisition includes 61.5 percent of the HESS-operated Syd Arne oil field, in addition to INEOS' existing 36.8% stake and 4.8 percent in the INEOS-operated Solsort field.
