Pet Coke Market Analysis:

The pet coke market is driven by its increasing use as a cost-effective fuel in cement and power generation industries due to its high calorific value and low cost compared to coal. The rising demand for aluminum and steel production, where pet coke is used as a carbon source, further boosts market growth. Additionally, expanding industrialization and urbanization in emerging economies, coupled with the availability of pet coke as a refinery byproduct, contribute to its growing demand and market expansion. For instance, in February 2022, Reliance Industries Ltd. announced the plan to repurpose a USD 4 billion facility to generate blue hydrogen to convert petroleum coke to synthesis gas.

Pet coke Market Trends:

Increased Use in Cement and Power Generation

The pet coke market is witnessing a significant trend towards its increased use in the cement and power generation industries. This is due to pet coke’s high calorific value, making it a more efficient fuel compared to traditional coal. Its cost-effectiveness further enhances its appeal, especially in developing regions where energy demand is rising rapidly. This trend is supported by technological advancements that allow for the more efficient and cleaner burning of pet coke, reducing its environmental impact. For instance, in 2022, a White House report on the progress of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law highlighted the initiation of 2,800 bridge repair and replacement projects across America. Additionally, in March 2022, the South African government, under the Department of Public Works and Infrastructure, announced the National Infrastructure Plan 2050 (Nip 2050) Phase I, aimed at enhancing critical infrastructure in the country. Such advancements in infrastructure development are poised to drive the growth of the petroleum coke market.

Rising Demand in Aluminum and Steel Production

Another major trend driving the pet coke market is its growing application in the aluminum and steel production sectors. Pet coke serves as a vital carbon source in the smelting process of these metals. As global infrastructure and automotive industries expand, the demand for aluminum and steel rises, consequently increasing the need for pet coke. Additionally, the shift towards using anode-grade pet coke in aluminum production for its lower sulfur content is further propelling market growth. For instance, as per the Indian Government’s export promotion agency IBEF, the country’s finished steel consumption is anticipated to increase to 230 MT by 2030-32 from 119.17 MT in FY23. Moreover, the report also ranked India as the world’s second largest producer of crude steel, with an output of 125.32 MT of crude steel and finished steel production of 121.29 MT in FY23. Besides this, the Government of India (GoI), under the Union Budget 2023-24, has allocated Rs. 70.15 crore (US$ 8.6 million) to the Ministry of Steel.

Latest Industry News:

• In May 2023, Emirates Global Aluminum (EGA), a UAE-based aluminum producer, signed a memorandum of understanding with BP to explore initiatives aimed at reducing the carbon content of EGA's calcined petroleum coke supply. This collaboration could result in the establishment of a calcined petroleum coke mixing facility in the UAE. BP, an England-based oil and gas company, is a key partner in this strategic endeavor.
• In March 2023, ExxonMobil celebrated the successful commencement of its Beaumont refinery expansion project, which increased the refinery's capacity by 250,000 barrels per day. This enhancement solidifies its status as one of the leading refining and petrochemical complexes on the U.S. Gulf Coast.
