The global oil storage market size was estimated at 2315.2 MCM in 2025 and is projected to reach 3296.1 MCM by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2026 to 2033. Rapid industrialization and urbanization, particularly across emerging economies, continue to drive higher consumption of energy resources, including crude oil and refined petroleum products.
As nations expand transportation networks, manufacturing capacity, and urban infrastructure, the need for reliable and efficient oil storage systems becomes increasingly critical to ensure uninterrupted supply chains and inventory management. This rising demand is prompting investments in new storage terminals and the expansion of existing facilities, supporting steady market growth in terms of installed storage volume.
Oil storage infrastructure plays a vital role in supporting strategic reserves, commercial trading activities, and operational requirements across the energy value chain. Large and medium capacity storage facilities are preferred due to their ability to handle bulk volumes, improve logistical efficiency, and enhance energy security. Growing volatility in global oil prices, increasing cross-border oil trade, and government-led initiatives to strengthen strategic petroleum reserves in countries such as the U.S., China, India, and key Middle Eastern economies are further accelerating the expansion of oil storage capacity worldwide.
