Press Release

Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.99% Through 2029

Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market is increasing due to Energy Transition and Clean Fuels and Global Trade Dynamics in the forecast period.


According to TechSci Research report, “Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market - Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2029F”. The Global Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market was valued at USD 20.05 Billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 28.68 billion by 2029 with a CAGR of 5.99% during the forecast period.  A notable trend in the Global NGL market is the rising importance of NGLs as a cleaner energy source compared to traditional fossil fuels. Ethane, propane, and butanes derived from natural gas are used as feedstocks for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), which serves as a cleaner alternative to coal and wood for heating and cooking in residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.

NGLs play a crucial role in supporting the transition to cleaner energy solutions globally. Ethane and propane are utilized as feedstocks for producing cleaner-burning fuels, such as ethanol and biodiesel, which reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality compared to conventional gasoline and diesel fuels.

The increasing focus on sustainability and environmental stewardship is driving investments in technologies to enhance the efficiency of NGL extraction, processing, and utilization. Innovations in gas processing technologies and carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) are enabling the production of low-carbon intensity NGLs, aligning with global climate goals and regulatory requirements.

Overall, these trends underscore the evolving role of NGLs in meeting global energy demands, supporting industrial growth, and advancing environmental sustainability goals. As market dynamics continue to evolve, stakeholders in the Global NGL market are poised to capitalize on these trends by fostering innovation, enhancing operational efficiencies, and expanding market access to meet growing consumer and industry needs worldwide.

Based on Product Segment, the Propane segment dominated the Global Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) Market, Within the Global Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) Market, the Propane segment has emerged as a dominant force, driven by its versatile applications and robust demand across various sectors worldwide. Propane, a key component of NGLs extracted alongside natural gas production, plays a pivotal role in meeting energy needs, industrial processes, and consumer applications.

Propane's significant presence in industrial and residential sectors underscores its dominance. In industries, propane is used as a feedstock for petrochemical production, particularly in the manufacturing of plastics, synthetic fibers, and various chemicals. Its high energy density and clean-burning properties make it an ideal fuel for heating, drying, and powering industrial equipment, contributing to operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness. On the residential front, propane is widely used for heating homes, cooking, and as a fuel for appliances like water heaters and stoves. Its availability in portable cylinders and bulk tanks makes it convenient for remote areas or regions without access to natural gas pipelines, further expanding its market reach.

In the energy sector, propane serves as a critical fuel for power generation and as an alternative fuel for vehicles. Power plants utilize propane in combined heat and power (CHP) systems to generate electricity and heat simultaneously, enhancing energy efficiency and reducing emissions compared to traditional fossil fuels.

Moreover, propane's role in transportation is growing, particularly in fleet vehicles, buses, and propane autogas vehicles. Propane vehicles emit fewer greenhouse gases and pollutants compared to gasoline and diesel, aligning with global initiatives for cleaner transportation fuels and reducing carbon footprints. Several factors contribute to the dominance of the Propane segment in the Global NGL Market. Technological advancements in gas processing and distribution infrastructure have improved the efficiency and reliability of propane supply chains, supporting its widespread adoption across industries and households.

Market dynamics such as fluctuating crude oil prices and global supply-demand dynamics influence propane prices and market conditions. The flexibility of propane as a portable, versatile, and environmentally friendly fuel positions it favorably amidst evolving energy policies and consumer preferences for sustainable energy solutions. Looking ahead, the Propane segment is poised for continued growth, driven by expanding industrial applications, increasing demand for cleaner energy sources, and advancements in propane-based technologies. Strategic investments in infrastructure, regulatory support for clean fuels, and innovations in propane utilization will further bolster its leadership in the Global Natural Gas Liquids Market, shaping its trajectory in the coming years.

Asia Pacific is the fastest-growing region in the global Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) market, driven by increasing industrialization, energy demand, and growing investments in natural gas infrastructure.
