The global and China kerosene fuel market continues to demonstrate stable growth, with its valuation reaching USD 154.2 billion in 2024. According to the latest industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7%, reaching approximately USD 234.6 billion by 2032. This growth is largely fueled by rebounding aviation demand post-pandemic and increasing military fuel requirements, particularly in Asia-Pacific where China’s domestic kerosene consumption accounted for 38 million metric tons in 2023.
Kerosene fuel remains essential for commercial aviation (Jet A1), military applications (JP-8), and heating in emerging economies. While conventional kerosene dominates current usage, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) initiatives are gaining traction, with major refiners investing in biofuel blending technologies to meet upcoming environmental regulations.

Market Overview & Regional Analysis
Asia-Pacific dominates global kerosene consumption with 38% market share, led by China’s aviation sector recovery and India’s expanding middle class. North America follows closely due to robust commercial aviation demand, though environmental pressures are accelerating SAF adoption. Europe shows a bifurcated market – conventional kerosene remains dominant while biofuel mandates reshape refinery operations.
The Middle East maintains its position as key exporter, leveraging abundant crude reserves, while African markets exhibit growth potential constrained by infrastructure limitations. China’s kerosene market demonstrates unique characteristics with PetroChina controlling 60% of domestic production and state policies influencing pricing dynamics.
Key Market Drivers and Opportunities
The market is primarily driven by aviation sector recovery, with global passenger traffic reaching 94% of pre-pandemic levels by late 2023. Commercial aviation accounts for 65% of kerosene demand, followed by military applications at 25%. Emerging opportunities include:
- Specialized fuel formulations for next-generation aircraft (Boeing 777X, sixth-gen fighters)
- Strategic partnerships between oil majors and airlines like BP-IAG’s 3 billion liter/year agreement
- Digital fuel management solutions creating $500M+ service revenue potential
- Bio-kerosene development to meet 2-6% blending mandates in EU/U.S. by 2030
Challenges & Restraints
The kerosene market faces several constraints:
- Environmental regulations: CORSIA and ReFuelEU will reduce conventional kerosene demand growth by 1.2% annually
- Refinery limitations: European facilities average just 68% kerosene yield efficiency versus 82% in Asia
- Price volatility: 2023 saw 30%+ price swings on Brent crude fluctuations ($72-$97/barrel)
- Emerging technology: Electric/hydrogen aircraft development impacting long-term demand outlook
