Lubricants Market in Middle-East and Africa 2017- Segmented by Base Stock, Product Type, End-User Industry, and Geography-Growth, Trends and Forecasts to 2021

The Middle-East and Africa Lubricant’s Market is expected to value at USD XX.XX million by revenue and XX.XX kilo tons by volume in 2016, and is likely to reach USD XX.XX million and XX.XX kilo tons respectively by 2021, at an estimated CAGR of 3.3% during the forecast period 2016-2021.

Lubricants are vital for the proper functioning of machines. They are used to reduce wear and friction between surfaces in close proximity and that move relative to each other. They are usually in liquid, semi-fluid, or in solid state. Superior-quality lubricants possess various characteristics such as a high viscosity index, high level of thermal stability, low freezing point, and high boiling point. These features help reduce friction between surfaces of machine parts, reduce the rate of wear and increase operational efficiency. They act as a cooling fluid, and remove any residual deposition over mechanical parts, thereby increasing their operating lifespan.
