Petroleum coke has made significant inroads in the cement and power industry and has started giving competition to coal. Petroleum coke is an excellent, inexpensive product to blend with coal in traditional coal fired boilers. Production costs associated with petcoke are minimal because it is a byproduct of the refining process, and prices are generally determined by the competitive steam coal price.

In 2000, the Global petroleum coke demand was 62 MMTPA which increased to 93 MMTPA in 2010 increasing at a CAGR of 4%. In 2015 the demand for petroleum coke is expected to increase to 148 MMTPA. It is increasingly being used as an alternative to coal for energy purposes.
