Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market Trends

  Growing government backing for NGL usage drives market growth.

  
  

Market CAGR for natural gas liquid (NGL) is being driven by the rising government backing for NGL usage. The Mexican Energy Regulatory Commision granted Walmart a 30-year commision to provide propane to customers in six Mexican state towns. Through an extended petrochemicals diversification programme, the government of Alberta, Canada, has made efforts to increase ethane supplies through a combination of loan guarantees, royalty credits, and grants. These efforts, when combined with a partial upgrade programme, are likely to attract more than USD 10 billion in private investment. Furthermore, in September 2019, the Saudi government launched additional measures to reduce subsidies for needs such as water and energy. As a result, the cost of ethane increased by 2.33 times the cost of subsidies. However, this had little effect on demand for product cuts, and the hikes were well received. During the forecast period, such factors will drive market expansion.

Additionally, with rising living standards and environmental concerns, the use of NGLs products is increasing. NGLs such as propane and butane are commonly utilised as a fuel in furnaces for heating and cooking, as well as an energy source for heating systems, washing dryers, grills, and portable stoves. The increased consumption of such goods for cooking, heating, and burning is likely to boost the natural gas liquid industry.

Despite relative stability between 2019 and 2020, CO2 emissions increased by 1.5% in 2020. According to the IEA, the transportation sector accounted for around eight gigatonnes of CO2 in 2019, accounting for roughly one-quarter of overall emissions. As a result, NGLs have seen widespread use as a source of energy in a variety of industries. According to Technavio, worldwide autogas consumption would climb from 27.01 million tonnes in 2020 to 29.79 million tonnes by 2032. Furthermore, LPG is widely used in the residential sector as well as for recreation in recreational vehicles, boats, and caravans.

For instance, in May 2019, India's Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana was launched to provide new and free LPG connections to women from extremely impoverished homes. Thus, driving the Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market revenue.
