Middle East And Africa Internal Combustion Engines Market Trends
The Diesel Fuel Type Segment to Witness Significant Growth
Diesel fuel vehicles have internal combustion engines and a compression-ignited injection engine system, unlike the spark-ignited method used in most gasoline vehicles. Diesel fuel, often known as diesel oil or previously heavy oil, refers to any liquid fuel intended primarily for use in a diesel engine. The most prevalent type of diesel fuel is a distinct fractional distillation of petroleum fuel oil.
The number of diesel fuel internal combustion engine type vehicles increased in the past few years in several African and Middle Eastern countries. The countries in the region are more dependent on imports due to a need for more reserves to fulfill the demand for diesel oil in the region. In June 2023, Saudi Arabia emerged as Kenya's primary source of petroleum product imports, including diesel oil, contributing significantly to the nation's trade deficit. According to data issued by the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, the number of goods imported from the largest economy in the Middle East grew by nearly three times to KES 32.27 billion (USD 231.82 million) in March due to higher orders of diesel oil, which were worth KES 8.44 billion (USD 60.63 million) a month earlier. All these trades are likely to fulfill the demand for diesel oil during the forecast period.
The demand for diesel oil in African countries is also on record high, and countries are now focusing on building the infrastructure for refining crude oil and cutting down the price of importing diesel oil. In October 2023, a deal was signed by Sonangol and the China National Chemical Engineering Company (CNCEC) toward the development of the Lobito Refinery in Angola. The two parties' memorandum of understanding is followed by the final agreement, which covers construction, technical assistance, and supervision. The refinery will be able to process up to 200,000 barrels of crude oil per day (bopd) of crude oil. All these types of development are likely to increase the diesel oil production during the forecast period.
The crude oil consumption in the region is increasing on a yearly basis. According to the Statistical Review of World Energy Data, the daily consumption was reported to be 13,613 thousand barrels in 2022, an increase of 9.58 % from 2013. The number is likely to increase due to the recent projects of hybrid vehicles across the region. For instance, in November 2023, Ford Motor South African division announced an investment of ZAR 5.2 billion (USD 281 million) to manufacture a hybrid vehicle in the country. This significant investment will increase the demand for IC engines in the manufacturing of hybrid engines in the coming years.
Hence, driven by high domestic demand, recent developments, and upcoming diesel oil refinery projects, the market is expected to grow in the region during the forecast period.
Saudi Arabia is Expected to Witness Significant Growth
Saudi Arabia is one of the critical automobile industries in the Middle East and Africa. According to the Ministry of Transport statistics, as of 2018, the country had more than 12 million vehicles that consume about 910,000 barrels of fuel and diesel. This number of vehicles is likely to increase by 26 million by 2030, and daily consumption of fuel and diesel will be around 1.86 million barrels per day.
Crude oil consumption is increasing on a yearly basis in the region. According to the Statistical Review of World Energy Data, the daily consumption was reported to be 3,876 thousand barrels in 2022, an increase of 11.76 % from 2013. The competition is likely to increase in the coming years across Saudi Arabia.
The country is focusing on increasing the number of internal combustion engine (ICE) automobiles and supporting industries to improve infrastructure across the country. For instance, in October 2023, the country aimed to manufacture more than 300,000 cars annually by 2030, including internal combustion engine automobiles. Hyundai is likely to build the plant for ICE cars. The plant is likely to start operations in 2024, and production is expected to begin in 2026.
Companies in Saudi Arabia are focusing on developing ICE engines for hybrid and gasoline vehicles at a higher rate. In March 2023, Saudi Aramco, a significant oil company in Saudi Arabia, signed a new joint venture with Geely and Renault to produce internal combustion engines (ICE) and hybrid cars. Companies jointly develop and manufacture internal combustion engines, gearboxes, and other components for hybrid, gasoline, and diesel vehicles. All these types of developments and agreements are likely to increase the demand for ICE engine automobiles during the forecast period.
Hence, driven by high domestic demand, recent developments, and upcoming manufacturing plants, the market is expected to grow in the region during the forecast period.
