Global Oil Drilling Grade Xanthan Gum Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031
Description
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Oil Drilling Grade Xanthan Gum market size was valued at US$ 525 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 742 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.6% during review period.
Xanthan gum is usually an organic product made from corn starch by fermentation. It is usually a white or light yellow powder. It is currently the most superior biological gum in the world that combines thickening, suspension, emulsification and stabilization.
Oil drilling grade xanthan gum is an environmentally friendly and efficient mud additive used in oil drilling and mining. It has excellent tolerance to changes in temperature, pH and salt content. Petroleum-grade xanthan gum can greatly increase its penetration and suspension performance for fine solid materials, reduce pressure loss during drilling, and reduce damage to oil layers while accelerating drilling. At the same time, as a biological oil recovery additive, while protecting the environment, xanthan gum can greatly improve the profile adjustment effect and oil recovery rate, improve resource utilization, reduce production costs, and improve economic benefits.
Driving factors:
Increasing demand for xanthan gum
The global total demand for oil continues to grow, leading to an increase in mining and use, and the demand for oil drilling grade xanthan gum has also increased.
Rising prices of xanthan gum products
The increase in demand has led to a rapid increase in the price of xanthan gum. In the first half of 2023, the price reached a high level in the past decade, and the increase in xanthan gum prices was greater than the increase in raw material prices, resulting in the increase in operating costs of manufacturers being less than the increase in operating income, and bringing higher gross profit margins and total profits to production companies.
Restrictive factors:
Industry competition risks
In the past, many companies entered the xanthan gum market, and the market competition was fierce and triggered a price war. The price of xanthan gum continued to decline, the industry suffered serious losses as a whole, and the operating rate was obviously insufficient. After that, some companies began to withdraw from the market one after another, and the industry concentration increased significantly. At the same time, due to the continuous increase in demand, the price of xanthan gum showed a recovery, but the risk of a new round of intensified industry competition after the price increase cannot be ruled out.
Risk of substitutes
In the oil industry, xanthan gum has a higher cost-effectiveness than polyacrylamide, carboxymethyl cellulose, modified starch and some polysaccharide plants (guar gum, etc.) due to its rheological properties, salt resistance, thickening effect and relatively low price. However, it is not ruled out that guar gum will break through the production capacity bottleneck and reduce the price in the future, thereby reducing the attractiveness of xanthan gum.
Risk of anti-dumping investigation
Xanthan gum is mainly produced in China, and the industry concentration is relatively high. In 2012, the U.S. Department of Commerce initiated an anti-dumping investigation and ruled in July 2013 to impose tariffs on xanthan gum imported from China. On September 26, 2018, the U.S. Department of Commerce made the first anti-dumping sunset review final ruling on xanthan gum imported from China. On October 2, 2023, the U.S. Department of Commerce initiated the second anti-dumping sunset review investigation on xanthan gum imported from China. On February 2, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued an announcement stating that it had made a final ruling on the second anti-dumping rapid sunset review of xanthan gum imported from China: If the current anti-dumping measures are cancelled, the dumping margin of the Chinese products involved will continue or reoccur at 154.07%. If a major xanthan gum-consuming country launches an anti-dumping investigation against Chinese xanthan gum products in the future, it will once again bring legal and administrative costs to Chinese xanthan gum manufacturers and the entire industry, and they will be forced to raise product prices, affecting product demand.
