Know More About “Petrochemicals Market 2019-2025” Growth Worldwide…..|Grand View Research, Inc.
The global petrochemicals
market size is projected to reach USD 651.1 billion by 2027, expanding at
a CAGR of 5.0%, according to a new
report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market for petrochemicals is largely driven
by rising demand for downstream specialty chemicals and plastic manufacturing.
The industry is growing through a
transformation with manufacturers focusing on high margin products and trying
to optimize raw material costs. Sustainability is the key standpoint driving
decision making. The rising plastic waste and pollution resulting from
manufacturing facilities have prompted manufacturers to take steps to tackle
the rising problem. Going ahead, manufacturers are trying to develop products
with widened application scope and minimal environmental impact. In China,
technologies are being developed to recycle plastic waste into crude oil.
Commercialization of these technologies will not only reduce pollution but also
ensure the supply of raw materials to the petrochemical industry.
Capacity additions are expected to be
a major feature of the market for petrochemicals. Passing through the
consolidation phase in 2012 - 2016, the market for petrochemicals witnessed a
large number of strategic divestments and acquisitions. Currently, a large
number of projects are being constructed in North America, China, and the
Middle East. China is expected to be a major player with more than 6.9 million
metric tons of cumulative capacity expected to be operational by 2021. The
Middle East is expected to face a lot of problems with manufacturers viewing
China as a favorable destination. However, with its current rate of
construction, the region is expected to add around 12 million metric tons of
cumulative capacity between 2018 and 2022.
Technological integration across the
value chain is expected to be major factor influencing market competition. The
adoption of technologies such as drones, Internet of Things (IOT), robotics,
blockchain, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing is expected to
transform petrochemical manufacturing. It will help in improving safety
monitoring and improve reliability and efficiency across the supply chain.

Further key findings from the report suggest:
·
The demand for butadiene is
anticipated to reach USD 19.8 billion tons owing to rising applications in
chemical manufacturing and monomers for tire production
·
The demand for methanol is
expected to witness a CAGR of 4.7% in terms of revenue over the forecast period
owing to growing application scope in end-use industries such as
pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and paints
·
The petrochemicals market in Canada
recorded a revenue of USD 10.1 billion driven by rising oil exploration
activities and development of integrated facilities
·
The demand for petrochemicals
in Belgium is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.9% in terms of revenue from 2020
to 2027 on account of the presence of large number of specialty chemical
manufacturers and steady growth exhibited by the manufacturing sector
·

The
petrochemical industry is a vital component of numerous industrial processes as
it provides raw materials for a wide array of products that find application in
automotive, construction, and manufacturing. Some of the products derived from
petrochemicals are tires, detergents, industrial oil, fertilizers, plastics,
medical devices. The basic chemicals and plastic derived from the
petrochemicals act as a building block for numerous non-durable and durable
consumer goods.
U.S.
recorded an investment of more than USD 217 billion in petrochemical downstream
operations since 2013. The significant growth of the industry is driven by
shale gas revolution and has led to decrease in feedstock prices. The country
witnessed a significant rise in the consumption of ethane surpassing the other
petroleum products such as gasoline and jet fuel. Capital investments in the
U.S. petrochemical industry rose from USD 97 billion in 2013 to USD 317 billion
by 2017.
The
development of new technologies based on feed stocks such as light crude and
mixed crude is expected to positively impact the supply. The adoption of Crude
Oil to Chemical Technology (COTC) by manufacturers is expected to gain
popularity as it provides high yields in the range of 40% to 45%. Industrial
complexes with COTC technology are being constructed in the Middle East and
China and expected to be operational by 2020. The development of such
technologies will enable companies to manufacture chemicals on a refinery
scale.

Polypropylene is widely utilized in the automotive
industry owing to its superior mechanical properties and moldability and is
expected to witness a volume-based CAGR of 4.0% from 2020 to 2027. Increasing
demand for injection molded polypropylene from the electronics manufacturing
industry is expected to boost its consumption significantly. It is also used in
other applications such as housewares, bottle caps, toys, and luggage.
Acrylonitrile derived from propylene is used in the manufacturing of acrylic
fibers along with a variety of elastomeric polymers.
Benzene is expected to witness increased demand
owing to increasing demand for manufacturing of inks, rubber, adhesives,
paints, and varnishes. The advent of shale gas has changed the dynamics of the
market for petrochemicals in North America, significantly. It has largely
affected the supply of benzene in the region with the availability of ethane
and lesser light cracking, resulting in low yields of benzene. It has resulted
in increased dependency on imports from China and other Asian countries.
