 The fuel gas use in fuel refineries amends the combustible characteristics of the fuel and is hence projected to drive the development from 2016 to 2025.
Asia Pacific conquered the regional sector due to the rise in the gas requirement in chemical processing units and refineries in China. Asia Pacific region was estimated around USD 22.17 billion in 2015. Growth of numerous end-use industries like infrastructure and automotive in Asia Pacific and Latin America is predicted to drive the market.
