Among the various applications, the petroleum refinery segment held the largest share in the global industrial gases market. Over the last few years, the demand for hydrogen in petroleum refining has increased significantly, owing to stricter environmental legislations imposed by various governments. For instance, the Chinese government is focusing more on strengthening environmental standards in China through the promotion of eco-friendly fuel cell vehicles in the country. The stricter environmental norms in China are anticipated to help reduce CO2 levels in the region. In 2011, in its Twelfth Five Year Plan, the Chinese government allocated USD 15.8 million for the construction of a hydrogen highway to meet the growing demand for hydrogen and fuel cells in the country. In refineries, hydrogen is used to remove sulphur from crude oil.

Among the various product types, the hydrogen segment held the largest share in the global industrial gases market. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the global crude oil production increased from 77,980 thousand barrels per day in 2014 to 80,071 thousand barrels per day in 2015. This in turn, is anticipated to increase demand for hydrogen in oil refineries. The increasing per capita vehicle ownership in developing nations is fuelling demand for hydrogen.

In 2015, Asia-Pacific held the largest share in the global industrial gases market with 38.9% share. The industrial gases market in the region is anticipated to witness the highest growth at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. The major reasons behind the growth of the industrial gases market in the region include increasing refinery output particularly in countries, such as China and India. China was the largest market for industrial gases in the region in 2015; however, India is expected to witness highest growth in the near future. The increasing demand for environment-friendly energy carriers is further driving the growth of the industrial gases market in the region. Moreover, economic growth along with industrialization has increased the disposable incomes in Asia-Pacific, which in turn, has led to increase in vehicle ownership in countries such as India, Japan, and China. This in turn, drives the growth of the market in the region.
