The global drag reducing agent (DRA) market is experiencing strong growth, driven by the increasing demand for energy-efficient solutions in the oil and gas industry. Drag reducing agents are specialized chemicals added to pipelines to reduce friction and turbulence during the transportation of crude oil, refined products, and natural gas. By minimizing frictional losses, DRAs enable higher flow rates, lower pumping costs, and increased pipeline capacity, offering significant economic and environmental benefits. In 2024, the market witnessed a surge in demand for DRAs as oil and gas companies sought to optimize pipeline operations, enhance production efficiency, and reduce their carbon footprint.
