The base oil is a lubricant component used to manufacture all kinds of lubricants. The manufacturing of base oil involves a variety of different processes, including distillation, solvent refining, hydrogen processing, oligomerization, esterification, and re-refining. All the base oils have been divided into five general categories, namely Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, and Group V. Group I base stocks contain less than 90% saturates and/or greater than 0.03% sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 80 and less than 120. Group II base stocks contain greater than or equal to 90% saturates and less than or equal to 0.03% sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 80 and less than 120. Group III base stocks contain greater than or equal to 90% saturates and less than or equal to 0.03% sulfur and have a viscosity index greater than or equal to 120. Group IV base stocks are poly-alpha-olefins (PAO). Group V base stocks include all other base stocks not included in Group I, II, III, or IV. 

Based on the group, the base oil market has been segmented into Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, and Group V. The Group II-based base oil segment had the highest base oil market share in 2019, and the trend is expected to continue during the forecast period between 2020 and 2025. This is majorly due to the high performance and affordability of Group II base oils. Further, the rising demand for Group II from marine and gas engine applications is expected to further aid in the growth of the global base oil industry. Better oxidation control, improved Noack stability, enhanced viscosity control, and better base number retention are some of the superior qualities of Group II base oil when compared to the other Groups. Which in turn, fueling the growth of Group II in trunk piston engine oils (TPEO) for medium-speed, four-stroke engines in the marine sector. These factors support the rising global demands for Group II base oil, which is one of the major drivers of the base oil market.
