Impact of COVID-19 on Global Aviation Gasoline (Avgas) Market:
COVID-19 has severely impacted the global economy with devastating effects on global trade, which has simultaneously affected households, business, financial institution, industrial establishments and infrastructure companies. The novel coronavirus has affected several economies ad caused lockdown in many countries which has limited the growth of the market.COVID-19 pandemic has triggered a full-fledged crisis in 2020, with travel restrictions and aircraft cancellations imposed to stem the virus’s spread. As a result, demand for aviation turbine fuel and aviation gas has declined drastically. During the peak time of the pandemic, several flights have witnessed a reduction in operations due to the coronavirus outbreak. The majority of countries around the world are gradually opening up their market. Owing to this, demand for aviation gasoline is likely to reach normal levels. However, owing to private and corporate aircraft restrictions, aviation gasoline consumptions is still low compared to pre COVID-19. COVID-19 has forced the closure of training schools and air sports related activities.
The price of aviation gasoline is directly dependent on the crude oil prices. The demand for crude oil is deficient due to pandemic and the price of crude oil is relatively low; hence, having a negative impact on aviation gasoline cost. As demand for these products began to rise, prices for jet fuel and aviation gasoline (Avgas) market have been normalized.
