Global Petroleum Grade Xanthan Gum Market Growth 2025-2031
Description
The global Petroleum Grade Xanthan Gum market size is predicted to grow from US$ 798 million in 2025 to US$ 916 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.3% from 2025 to 2031.
Petroleum 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 volume, and the demand for petroleum-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:
Macroeconomic fluctuation risk
The food additive industry and downstream food and oil drilling industries in which xanthan gum is located will be affected to a certain extent by global macroeconomic fluctuations. If the macroeconomic growth rate of the main customer countries is weak, the demand for xanthan gum will be appropriately reduced; in addition, exchange rate fluctuations, inflation, and cyclical price changes of coal and corn, the main cost components, have also had a certain impact on the profitability of the industry.
Industry competition risk
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, 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 has recovered, but the risk of a new round of intensified industry competition after the price increase cannot be ruled out.
Alternative risk
In the petroleum industry, due to the rheological properties, salt resistance, thickening effect and relatively low price of xanthan gum, it is more cost-effective than polyacrylamide, carboxymethyl cellulose, modified starch and some polysaccharide plants (guar gum, etc.). However, it cannot be 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. In addition, although xanthan gum currently has extremely high performance in the application of food additives and drilling mud additives, it is still possible to be replaced by new materials in the future, which will cause a huge blow to the xanthan gum industry.
