Transformer Oil market: USD 2.79 Billion market 2020 with a projected CAGR of 7.1% from 2015 to 2020.

Increasing demand for the dry type transformers and the corrosive effect of sulfur present in transformer oil are major restraints for the transformer oil market. To counter the economic slump in European countries, transformer oil manufacturers are trying to expand their geographic presence and market penetration in other regions through the launch of new and advanced products and technologies.

The transformer oil market has exhibited steady growth over the last few years because of its increasing application in small transformers, large transformers, and utilities in emerging economies such as China and India. National utility companies across the world continue to invest in their power grids in order to meet the increasing demand of end-users giving scope for transformer oil market.

Small transformer is the largest application segment of the transformer oil market. With national governments ramping up power generation capabilities, the demand for transformer oil is expected to increase. The increasing demand from OEMs, coupled with expansion of electric grids in BRICS nations is expected to drive the global transformer oil market.

Mineral-based transformer oil is the most widely used transformer oil having occupied the largest market share in 2014. However, the demand of bio-based transformer oil is expected to increase in the near future due to environmental benefits and superior operational advantages.

Asia-Pacific currently dominates the transformer oil market. It held the largest market share in 2014 owing to its increasing power requirements and expansion of electric grids. Major players in the transformer oil market include Nynas AB (Sweden), Ergon Inc. (U.S.), PetroChina Company Limited (China), Apar Industries Limited (India), and Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (U.S.).
