The global petrochemicals market size is projected to reach around US$ 600 Bn by 2027 and growing at a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period 2020 to 2027.
The petrochemicals industry is a diverse field that impacts nearly every area of life. Petrochemicals are derivatives of petroleum and gas in chemical form. These are either made of naphtha fraction in crude oil, or of paraffin steam cracking in natural gas. There are three main categories of petrochemicals — aromatics, olefins, and methanol.
The report provides analysis of global Petrochemicals market for the period 2016-2027, wherein 2020 to 2027 is the forecast period and 2019 is considered as the base year.
Market Dynamics
The petrochemical market will expand as a result of increased demand for downstream chemicals from end-use industries. The industry is evolving with suppliers concentrating on high value goods and seeking to reduce the cost of raw materials. The main reasons for decision-making are resilience. The overallplastic waste and emissions generated by processing facilities also forced factories to take action to tackle the rising problem. Producers are attempting to attempt to produce products with an extended scope of use and reduced environmental effects. Technologies for the refining of plastic waste into crude oil are being developed in China. The promotion of these products does not only minimize emissions but also ensure that the petrochemical industry receives raw materials.
Regional Stance
North America held significant market share in 2019 and projected to govern the market amid the projected time span. The development of petrochemicals industries in North America will be driven by growing investments in the US and Canada in shale gas exploration. In 2018, the natural gas production in North America accounted for over 90 percent of the countries combined. The shale gas production gives the benefit of substitution for various petrochemicals for typical feedstocks, such as raw oil and natural gas. North America's shale gas boom has turned industry players from cost-effective manufacturers of petrochemicals and resins to the cheapest because of lower prices for raw materials. Asia-Pacific will experience a substantial CAGR amid the forecast timeframe as a result of rapid industrialization in the region. The key growth-centered countries in the global market are projected to be China and India.
