Middle East and Africa Transformer Oil Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Description
The Middle East and Africa transformer oil market size was valued at USD 216.42 Million in 2024. The market is further projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.60% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of USD 410.08 Million by 2034.
There is a notable trend in the market towards environmentally friendly insulating oils for transformers, such as bio-based oil, which are derived from vegetables. They are biodegradable, non-toxic, and have superior insulating properties, making them an attractive choice for transformers and electrical equipment. For example, Nynas, a leading transformer oil supplier, has developed a range of bio-based transformer oils called NYTRO BIO 300X, which are made from renewable raw materials.
There is an increasing demand for high-performance transformer oils that offer enhanced thermal and oxidation stability, longer service life, and improved operational efficiency. For instance, Apar Industries, an Indian transformer oil manufacturer, has developed a range of high-performance transformer oils called APIS HIPO, which offer improved oxidation stability and better performance in high-temperature applications.
The expansion of renewable energy projects, particularly in solar and wind power generation, is fuelling the Middle East and Africa transformer oil market growth. For instance, the Noor Abu Dhabi solar power plant in the United Arab Emirates, one of the world's largest solar projects, requires transformers to support efficient energy transmission and distribution, driving the demand for transformer oils.
Mineral oil has the largest Middle East and Africa transformer oil market share as it is the most used type of transformer oil, primarily due to its low cost, wide availability, and excellent insulating properties. Mineral oil-based transformer oils exhibit high resistivity, di-electricity, chemical stability, minimum power loss, and thermal conductivity, making them an ideal choice for transformers and electrical equipment.
Silicone-based transformer oils are known for their superior performance and durability. They offer excellent resistance to high temperatures, electrical stress, and oxidation. Silicone-based oils are typically more expensive than mineral oils but provide better overall performance, especially in high-temperature applications.
