Solid Sulphur Market Dynamics

Fertilizer segment is largest and fastest-growing application of solid sulphur

The fertilizer segment is the largest and the fastest-growing application of solid sulphur. Sulphur is a high purity chemical used in the making of fertilizers, vulcanization of rubber, and chemical processing.

Growth in demand for solid sulphur majorly driven by huge consumption in agriculture sector.

The solid sulphur market size is estimated to be USD 3,268.7 million in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 3,789.3 million by 2025, at a CAGR of 3.0 %. The high growth witnessed in the fertilizers market in the developing economies of APAC is a key factor driving the solid sulphur market. APAC is the fastest-growing market for fertilizer. With the boost in the economy, the APAC market is witnessing high growth with respect to chemicals and materials, thus fueling the solid sulphur market. However, the high cost of extraction through mining is a restrain.

Solid Sulphur Market

APAC is largest and fastest-growing market for solid sulphur

APAC is projected to register the fastest growth during the forecast period. China is expected to be one of the major markets for solid sulphur. The growing demand from fertilizers and chemical processing applications is expected to drive the market in China during the forecast period.

Recent Developments

In March 2020, ADNOC (Abu Dhabi) invested to increase its oil production capacity from 3 to 4 million barrels of oil per day by April 2020 to respond to the current market condition. This expansion will increase the sulphur production from oil refineries and serve the growing demand for sulphur in the Middle East & Africa, APAC, and Europe.
In February 2020, ADNOC invested USD 1.65 billion in the construction of the Dalma Gas Development project in Dalma (Abu Dhabi), which will have a production capacity of 340 million standard cubic feet of natural gas per day. This increase in natural gas production will increase the production of sulphur, which will serve the domestic demand of sulphur.
In April 2019, Marathon Petroleum Corporation (MPC) made a definitive purchase agreement with NOCO Incorporated (New York, US) to acquire 33 express NOCO retail stores and 900,000 barrels capacity light weight and asphalt terminal.
In November 2019, QP will combine SEEF Limited’s (Doha, Qatar) operations with its refining operations by the end of 2020. With this acquisition, QP aims to strengthen its position in the downstream operations in the oil & gas industry in the Middle East & Africa region.

The study involved four major activities in estimating the current market size for solid sulphur. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer market, and parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the total market size. After that, the market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of the various segments and sub-segments.

Secondary Research

As a part of the secondary research process, different sources were referred to for identifying and collecting information for this study. These secondary sources included annual reports, press releases, and investor presentations of companies; white papers; certified publications; and articles from recognized authors. Secondary research was mainly used to obtain key information about the supply chain of the industry, the monetary chain of the market, the total pool of key players, market classification & segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from both the market- and technology-related perspectives.
