Bunker Oil Market: Growth Drivers

The market is driven by increasing naval expenditure. Rising incidents of terrorist attacks and border disputes have led many countries to focus on strengthening their defense capabilities. This has increased the expenditure in the defense sector, which has also increased the overall naval spending. For instance, in March 2017, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy division announced its plans to secure substantial new funding in China’s defense budget in 2017. Similarly, other countries such as Indonesia and South Korea have also increased their spending on the military during the past few years. Therefore, the increase in naval spending will positively influence the demand for bunker oil during the forecast period.
