Dublin, July 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Barite Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Application (Fillers, Oil & Gas, Chemicals, Fillers), By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Central & South America, Middle East & Africa), And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global barite market size is expected to reach USD 2.13 billion by 2030., expanding at a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast period.
The market is projected to be driven by the growing investments in the oil & gas sector and rising demand from industries, such as paints & coating, chemicals, cosmetics, plastics, cement, and rubber. The flourishing oil & gas industry directly fuels the demand for barite, which finds use as a weighting agent in drilling mud formulations. Energy demand worldwide has increased abruptly owing to the growing global population.
The rising population has led governments to invest increasingly in enhancing their energy generation capacity, which in turn, is boosting investments in onshore and offshore oil & gas exploration activities to cater to the growing global energy demand. A rise in drilling activities is eventually expected to augment barite consumption.
Furthermore, the product is also used in medical applications, power plants, laboratories, and pharmaceutical units. It is used in special X-ray tests wherein it acts as a shielding material. It is also employed for carrying out different medical tests, such as CT scans. Growing expenditure on healthcare is expected to positively influence market growth. For instance, the U. S. healthcare expenditure rose by around 30% from 2017 to 2022.
Market players are adopting strategic initiatives, such as mergers & acquisitions, to expand their presence and capacity. To meet the new rising demand, key players are focusing on R&D for innovations, technologies, and recognition.
