RPS Energy's Director of Downstream Consulting, Stuart Speding, examines the key drivers for the lubricants industry over the next decade.
In this presentation, first given at the ACI European Base Oils and Lubricants Summit in Budapest in September 2013, Stuart Speding suggests that global vehicle ownership trends, the role of lubricants distributors and the relationship between the lubricants manufacturers and the OEMs will all play a key role in driving the lubes market over the next 10 years.
The presentation also explores the influence of global and regional base oil production and the new differentiators in lubes product sales.
