Global Aviation Gasoline (Avgas) Market Outlook

The global aviation gasoline (avgas) market size reached a value of nearly USD 2.34 billion in 2023. It is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% between 2024 and 2032 to attain around USD 3.45 billion by 2032.

Key Takeaways

  • The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) reported an increase in sales of piston-engine aircraft from 1,503 in 2019 to 1,718 in 2022.
  • Royal Dutch Shell Plc, TotalEnergies, and Exxon Mobil Corporation are a few of the major companies in the market.
  • The demand for aviation gasoline will be driven by the increased need for small piston aircraft for various sporting activities, such as aerobatics, air racing, gliding, and other activities.

Aviation fuel, an exclusive type of fuel, is generally used to energise an aircraft. This fuel is petroleum-based and is of higher quality than the regular fuels used in rail transport and road transport, among others.

The increase in investment by governments, the introduction of new flight routes, increased fleet sizes, and high demand for gasoline from emerging economies are likely to augment the market growth. In 2022, the U.S. as a whole produced 4,051 thousand barrels of aviation gasoline, with specific quantities produced in the Midwest, Indiana-Illinois-Kentucky refining district, and the Minnesota-Wisconsin-North Dakota-South Dakota refining district.

Some of the factors driving the aviation gasoline (avgas) market growth are the growing demand for business aviation aircraft by a growing number of high-net-worth individuals and increasing interest in sustainable aviation fuels due to stricter environmental regulations regarding air quality and greenhouse gas emissions.
