Nigeria Lubricant Market Overview
Market Size:
The lubricants market in Nigeria has grown over the years from 2012 to 2017 with the growth in the number of second hand and new passenger and commercial vehicles in the country. Penetration of Used cars and requirement of more frequent lubricant changes in older vehicles as compared to newer models contributed to the volume demand of automotive lubricants in Nigeria. The slowdown in economic growth due to economic recession in 2016 in Nigeria as a result of a drop in oil prices globally, and the state of the foreign exchange market had a serious adverse impact on various Lubricants manufacturing companies’ ability to do business and imposed severe costs on key sectors of the country which further cascaded into all areas of the economy. Even though the total vehicle traffic from all ports decreased substantially from 2014 to 2015, it has been increasing since then. This has added to the demand for marine lubricants in the country. There has also been a gradual change in consumer preferences towards synthetic lubricants in Nigeria with the increase in customer awareness.
Market Segmentation:
In 2017, mineral lubricants continued to be the most consumed lubricants in Nigeria followed by synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricants. This was because mineral lubricants are available at a much cheaper price as compared to semi-synthetic and synthetic lubricants which requires additional refining or are prepared in laboratories. In 2017, engine oils had maximum share in lubricants market in Nigeria. These lubricants are largely needed by commercial vehicles and light trucks which need to generate enough power as they are largely used in transport and logistics. This was followed by other lubricants such as Industrial oils, transmission oils, marine oils, grease and specialty lubricants in terms of domestic consumption.
Automotive lubricants, whose market was mainly driven by the demand for engine oils, dominated the market in Nigeria in terms of domestic consumption. The hike in demand for automotive lubricants stems from a rising prominence of the middle class in Nigeria, which has boosted vehicle sales. Also, the Lagos region had the major market share in the Nigeria lubricants market in terms of consumption volume in 2017. Lagos being the most populous city in Nigeria and one of the fastest growing cities in the world had about 12 of the 35 blending plants in the country. This was followed by Northern Nigeria, Eastern Nigeria and Western Nigeria.
Competitive Landscape
The demand of lubricants of domestic market is met by both the global players as well as independent marketers in Nigeria. The global players operating in Nigeria had a major share in the market share in terms of sales volume as compared to the independent marketers. Total Nigeria Plc is the market leader with the highest market share in terms of sales volume in the Nigeria Lubricants Market followed by Ammasco International Limited, 11 Plc, Oando Plc, Tonimas Nigeria Ltd, Forte Oil Plc, Conoil Plc, Lubcon, MRS Oil Nigeria Plc, A-Z Petroleum Products Ltd, Dozzy Oil and Gas, Eterna Plc, Techno Oil Ltd and Ascon Oil Company Ltd. Lubcon was awarded the country’s Lubricant Manufacturing Company of the year at the Guardian Manufacturing Excellence Awards 2017.
Future Outlook
The future outlook of the lubricants industry is positive because as the crude oil prices increase, Nigeria’s economy is expected to grow at a faster rate and hence the purchasing power of people is also expected to increase in the coming years. This would also push Nigeria’s demand for synthetic lubricants, particularly for modern cars. The market is expected to gravitate towards higher-quality, specialized and synthetic lubricants with an increase in end user awareness on the importance of lubricant drains. This can primarily be attributed to pending government legislation regarding emissions, improved engine technology and equipment manufacturers' requirements for fuel efficiency. The grease market, which was earlier dominated by sodium-based products, is gradually evolving to lithium based grease in Nigeria. The market shares of automotive lubricants and industrial lubricants are expected to remain fairly stagnant and the market size for both in expected to increase in terms of consumption volume proportionally. The lubricants market will be driven by the various steps being taken by the government such as initiatives to increase the ease of doing business which will boost manufacturing sector activities, the Nigeria Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) to emphasize investment in infrastructure, especially in power, roads, rail, ports and broadband networks and proposed Family Homes Fund is designed to stimulate the construction sector.

Decoding Data Definition: Clearly defined market size in terms of revenue streams considered by product categories/ service mix, regions included, price at manufacturers/ intermediate/ retail level, customer spending or players industry revenue.
Client Specific LOS: Clearly stipulated and streamlined learning objective from each section to the client to understand all the entities covered in the ecosystem.
Precisely framed hypothesis on the market size, segments, competition, future data point through data collation from  magazines, journals, broker reports, investor presentations and annual reports of major companies, reports of associations, CEFIC Association Annual Report, Ecological and Toxicological Association of Dyes Manufacturers, Ministry of Commerce, Department of Statistics  and others.
Hypothesis testing through trade desk interviews via Computer assisted telephonic interviews with several management executives, and other higher level authorities (including business development manager, sales and marketing head, key account managers) from Lanxess, Atul Ltd., BASF, Jay Chemicals, Clariant and other companies.
Market Sizing and Limitations:-
Market Sizing: Initially, we have compiled a list of prominent companies in dye industry and have approached the management of these companies including business development manager, sales and marketing head, procurement managers and others to understand the revenues, capacity, their growth, concentration by geography and industry verticals.
Our team then collated the data shared by these companies on primary research and those available on secondary sources such as annual reports and press releases. The team then extrapolated the available information to estimate the missing data points. The information was re-checked with the data available in secondary sources and proprietary databases.
We have conducted multiple CATIs with industry experts and management of leading dye manufacturers to understand their revenues, product portfolio, market segmentation and other market parameters. This helped us in estimating revenue generated in dyes industry in India.
Limitations: Since the competition between the manufacturers operating in this space is high, there might be a case that the management of the dye manufacturers might be bullish with the numbers and may over-estimate their numbers and under-estimate their competitor data points. To avoid this limitation, our team has validated the numbers provided by one manufacturer from another and this exercise has been done on vice versa as well. We have accordingly applied a discounting factor to normalize the over-estimated data point received from the respondents.
As there are large number of manufacturers in the unorganised market, we were not able to collate data extensively on the sector and several assumptions for this market segment is based on the inputs of the interviews conducted with leading organized players working in the industry.
We have considered strata sample to understand the pricing structure for different kinds of dye products across the globe. However, it can happen that some of the manufacturers might be charging higher or lower than the average price considered by us due to difference in technology, production cost, quality or end user served.
Future Growth model has been built on the basis of future developments and opinions received from key industry veterans of the market followed by SPSS and subjective analysis with margin of error of not more than 5-10%.
Dye Product Understanding:-
Azo Dyes: These are organic compounds bearing the functional group R−N=N−R′, in which R and R′ are usually aryl. They are a commercially important family of azo compounds, i.e. compounds containing the linkage C-N=N-C. Azo dyes are widely used to treat textiles, leather articles and some foods. They are insoluble and typically toxic. These dyes are used in printing inks.
Acid Direct Dyes: Dyeing with acid direct dyes is normally carried out in a neutral or slightly alkaline dye bath, at or near boiling point, with the addition of either sodium chloride (NaCl) or sodium sulphate (Na2SO4) or sodium carbonate (Na2CO3). Direct dyes are used on cotton, paper, leather, wool, silk and nylon.
Disperse Dyes: These are water-soluble dyes. The dye bath may require high temperature. These are typically used to dye synthetic fibres like polyester.
Ingrain Dyes: Ingrain dyes are those which are synthesized directly on the fabric. Ingrain dyeing is particularly suitable for cotton fabric.
Solvent Dyes: These are dyes soluble in organic solvents. Solvent dyes are used to colour organic solvents, hydrocarbon fuels, waxes, lubricants, plastics and other hydrocarbon-based nonpolar materials.
Reactive Dyes: These dyes utilize a chromophore capable of reacting directly with the substrate. They are among the most permanent of dyes. Reactive dyes are used in dyeing cotton and other cellulose fibers.
Sulphur Dyes: These are two-part dyes used on cottons to impart dark colors. The initial bath imparts a yellow color. This is then treated with a sulphur compound to produce a dark black color.
Vat Dyes: These are insoluble in water but soluble in alkaline liquor. These dyes are used for dyeing cotton, cellulosic and blended fibre.
Cold Dyes: These types of dyes contain reactive group of high reactivity. So dyeing can be done in lower temperature i.e. 320°C - 600°C. These are highly colored organic substances, primarily used for tinting textiles that attach themselves to their substrates by a chemical reaction that forms a covalent bond between the molecule of dye and that of the fibre. The dyestuff thus becomes a part of the fibre and is much less likely to be removed by washing than are dyestuffs that adhere by adsorption.
Medium Brand Dyes: This type of dyes contains reactive groups of moderate reactivity. So dyeing is done in higher temperature than that of cold brand dyes i.e. in between 600°C - 710°C temperatures.
Hot Brand Dyes: This type of dye contains reactive groups of least reactivity. So high temperature (720°C - 930°C) is required for dyeing.
Reactive P Dyes: Reactive Dyes that is basically used in various printing procedures. Printing colors like black, blue, red, orange and yellow, as per the requirements of the clients. ""P"" series dyes are suitable for printing fabrics.
Anthraquinone Dyes: It is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derived from Anthracene or Phthalic Anhydride. Anthraquinone dyes are used in the textile and pulp industries. Anthraquinone dyes are lightfast and wash fast.
Variables (Dependent and Independent):-
Forecast Modelling: The report applies correlation and regression analysis methods to forecast the future of dyes market in India. The capabilities of SPSS and predictive analytics software have been leveraged to determine the relevant indicators used for forecasting the growth in this industry.
In the present case, India dyes market revenue has been taken as the dependent variable and other variables such as volume derived from textile industry, plastic packaging and printing inks have been taken as independent variables.
Multi Factor Regression Analysis for Future Forecasting:-
SPSS For Linear Regression: Our team conducted a multi-factor regression analysis on the lag variables i.e. on the historical dyes market revenues for last 6 years by identifying the independent and quantifiable variables directly impacting the market.
Noise Filtering: The forecasting will be done by using SPSS statistical tools. The variables have been checked for multi-collinearity (via Karl Pearson correlation coefficient model) and other bias that could be there in the model.

Global Pseudomonas Infections Market Research Report: Ken Research


Pseudomonas Infections Global Clinical Trials Review, H1, 2018, a clinical trial report by GlobalData provides information on the clinical trials scenario for pseudomonas infections. The report contains data regarding the trial numbers, trial enrolments in top countries (G7 and E7), trials by regions, by phase, trials status and lists drugs for in-progress trials. A trend analysis of the past years’ clinical trials of the disease and future projections, through this report, can help organizations to study the markets, find opportunities and investments.
Pseudomonas infections are bacterial infections caused by the ‘pseudomonas’ bacterium. These are generally found in soil, water, plants and damp areas. The infection has mild effects on a normal human body, usually cured by a dose of antibiotics. However, it can prove to be severe- in many cases fatal- for a body with weak immune system or already diseased. Also, known as opportunistic bacteria, pseudomonas is generally acquired by patients in a hospital setting.
The healthcare industry has been facing a challenge to cure pseudomonas infections. Clinical trials are being performed worldwide to find more effective therapeutics for the same, as the earlier ones are proving to be ineffective. Multi Drug Resistance or MDR as it is known, is the resistance that the bacteria causing the disease develop towards the antibiotics, thus leading to ineffectiveness of the drug. Hence there is a high demand for research of new antibiotics. Some of the other challenges faced are the resurfacing of the infection that have been observed in many cases or development of resistance mid-treatment regimen.
The companies involved in the covered clinical trials are: Gilead Sciences Inc., Novartis AG, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Insmed Inc., Polyphor AG, PARI Medical Holding GmbH, Humanigen Inc., F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, Bayer AG and AmpliPhi Biosciences Corp.
Research for development of new antibiotics and pseudomonas therapeutics are on a surge globally, with USA being a dominant market in North America. Germany, France and UK are the top European countries investing in the research and trials. Experts believe that Asia is expected to become the focus of all the bio-medical and pharma companies, with China, India and Japan being the top countries.
The global clinical trials market is on rise. And as the demand for more effective cures increase globally, the growth is expected to continue for the next decade. Increasing globalization, technology advancements, increase in population and subsequent increase in the diversity of medical profiles, developments in emerging economies- all are the factors contributing to this growth. Apart from this, a positive support from the government in terms of regulations and policies has been favourable for businesses. Added to this are the increase in funding and investments from private entities. A market shift might be the future, as companies are focusing on the emerging countries for their potential markets and expansions. Also, the new- generation technologies are now helping the small and mid- size firms and research institutes to have access to data and research platforms, that were earlier available to only the big players.
