Increased Energy Needs Bolster Demand

The oil and gas industry is aiming to employ agile, optimized, and economic processes in place due to dual factors. Primarily, the rising energy needs across the world have necessitated a need to have better operational systems in place within the oil and gas industry. Secondly, the dearth of resources has compelled oil and gas extractors to deploy efficient techniques. The high specific gravity of barites makes them effective weighting agents in drilling fluids. This in turn amplifies their usage during the process of oil and gas production. Furthermore, the manufacturing of plastics, rubber, and paints also involves the usage of barites. This also propels demand within the market and establishes a regular inflow of revenue. Other uses of barites spur across pulp and paper, rubber and plastics, and pharmaceuticals amongst others. As these industries grow, the market will also trace a positive growth path over the coming years.
