The proppants market in Ethiopia is developing, driven by the oil and gas sectors adoption of hydraulic fracturing techniques for resource extraction.
The proppants market in Ethiopia is expanding as the demand for hydraulic fracturing in the oil and gas industry increases. Proppants, such as sand, are used in hydraulic fracturing processes to keep fractures open and facilitate the extraction of oil and gas. As Ethiopias oil and gas exploration activities grow, particularly in newly discovered fields, the need for proppants is expected to rise. Additionally, the increasing demand for energy and the adoption of advanced extraction techniques are supporting the growth of the proppants market in the country.
The proppants market is hindered by underdeveloped oil and gas exploration activities, high import costs, and limited local production facilities.
Ethiopia is fostering growth in the proppants market, essential for the oil and gas sector, by promoting investment in local production and processing facilities. Government policies provide incentives such as tax exemptions and subsidies to businesses involved in the production of proppants. The government is also focused on ensuring the responsible extraction of minerals used in proppants, with an emphasis on environmental protection and sustainability in the mining processes.

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
