FREE CustomizationPetrochemical Feedstock Market: Overview and dynamics
A substantial portion of petrochemicals, are derived from fossil fuels such as natural gas and crude oil. The remainder comes primarily from coal and biomass. Petrochemical plants are the building blocks for other processes and products which convert the natural resources to petrochemicals. These plants are increasingly complex and require energy in enormous quantities, specifically the distillation stage which involves separating the hydrocarbons from fossil fuels.
These hydrocarbons are then sent to the "crackers" plants which convert them into useful chemicals called Feedstocks. Petrochemical plants are the powerhouses that cover petrochemicals for natural resources and are used as building blocks for other processes and products. Petrochemical feedstock refers to any kind of unprocessed material used as a raw material for transformation to another end product in a manufacturing process.
Petrochemical feedstocks are derived from the refining process of petroleum which are used for the manufacturing of chemicals, synthetic rubber and a wide variety of plastics. Petrochemical Feedstocks are classified as olefins (including ethylene and propylene) and aromatics (including benzene, toluene and xylene isomers) and methanol.
Naphtha was the largest feedstock of petrochemicals used globally, followed by natural gas, coal, and ethane. The chemicals after refining (including ethylene, propylene, benzene, toluene, and xylene isomers) are produced and are led to form many by-products in the refining process. These industries are now focusing on by-products of petrochemical feedstocks and converting them into useful products like soaps, detergents, solvents, fertilizers, drugs, pesticides, epoxy resins etc.
Technical advancements is helping the industry to get more chemicals from the petrochemical feedstocks. The US petrochemical industry is undergoing rapid changes and the future of the industry is influenced by shifts in end-use market demand, changes in feedstock dynamics, and overcapacity. There seems to be a steady but probably massive improvement in the world petrochemical industry. Many factors in the end of the upstream petroleum and gas industries alter the way they add and use the capacities of basic chemicals.
Petrochemical feedstocks are also used for the manufacturing of Industrial and household products like soaps, detergents, solvents, fertilizers, Drugs, pesticides and epoxy resins, etc. The global markets of petrochemical feedstocks are likely to increase in the upcoming forecast period because of its applications and advancements.
Petrochemical Feedstocks Market: Regional Outlook
North America is the highest producer of petrol followed by middle-east and Russia. In regional country markets, Germany is the highest revenue maker from petrochemicals followed by the United States, because of the rapid development of industries and products from petrochemicals. Being highly advanced in the industrial sector, the European base oil refining industry increasing its revenues followed by North America. The rising demand for petroleum by-products resulted to increase in the market of petrochemical feedstock.
In the United States, natural gas liquids (NGL), in particular ethane, account for about 90% of US petrochemical feedstock production, due to the relative abundance of light oil and natural gas. In addition to that, naphtha is a petrochemical feedstock, which accounts for around 70% of European and Asian production of petrochemical feedstock. As the petrochemical companies of the United States use ethane and other natural gas coproduced LNG feedstocks, ethane prices are associated with prices of natural gas.
Since oil is sold on the international market, the prices are more or less the same, vary depending only on quality and access to infrastructure in all countries. Nonetheless, the regional gas markets are however regional in nature. In other words, North America's natural gas price mainly affects producers in North America. So the competitive benefit of US petrochemicals is that natural gas prices are low in contrast to international oil prices.
Besides rising upstream supply, petrochemical feeder prices tend to be affected significantly by refinery operations, which indicate that a global energy value chain is increasingly interrelated. In addition, productivity is influenced by competition between feedstocks. These factors are responsible for the development of the overall market for petrochemical feedstock.
There are only two applications for ethane, one as a petrochemical feedstock and the other as fuel. The refinery by-product naphtha is used by petrochemical companies in Europe and Asia. Moreover, the development of new technologies based on feedstocks is expected to positively impact the supply and provide impetus to the development of petrochemical feedstock market during the forecast period 2020-2030.
