Naphtha is an umbrella term that refers to a number of inflammable mixtures of various hydrocarbons. Naphtha is a group of volatile, aromatic and colorless to reddish-brown colored compounds that structurally have mixtures of numerous hugely volatile to extremely light fractions of hydrocarbons. According to the variety of mixes producing different kinds of naphtha, these compounds have varied applications in various fields.

The full range of Naphtha, as defined in Petroleum Engineering, is a fraction of hydrocarbons having the boiling point between 30 degree Celsius and 200 degree Celsius. These compounds typically contain 5 to 12 carbon atoms and contain 15% to 30% crude oil by their weight. The segment of light naphtha has boiling point in the range 30 degree Celsius and 90 degree Celsius and consists of 5-6 carbon atoms in their molecular structure. The segment of heavy naphtha has boiling points in the range 90 degree Celsius and 200 degree Celsius and constitutes 6-12 carbon atoms.


Application-wise Market Segmentation:

Demand for naphtha is primarily in the petrochemical industry where naphtha is primarily used as a feedstock for producing petrochemicals such as high octane gasoline. This field is in fact the biggest market player of the naphtha industry and accounted for a 60% market share of naphtha in 2012.

Naphtha is also used in various industries for blending gasoline. In steel industry, fertilizer plants and power plants, it is used as a fuel for energy production.
According to the report, the demand for naphtha from the petrochemical industry is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% during the analysis period of 2013 to 2019. Growth in demand from the energy industry is estimated to be at the rate of 5% during the same period.


Geography-wise Market Segmentation:

Geographically, the regions of Asia-Pacific were the market leaders in terms of demand for naphtha. They accounted for a 40% share of the market 2012. The high demand comes from the growth in manufacturing and construction activities in these regions and a rise in demand for plastic used in cars, electronics and construction industry. The North American market is expected to rise at the rate of CAGR 2.6% while the European market is estimated to grow at the rate of CAGR 2.1% from 2013 to 2019. Rising demand for plastic and petrochemical industries are the major reasons that will drive the growth of the market, according to the report.
