Study Prospectus
Ethylene Rationalization & The China Factor
In collaboration with Dragoman, a leading geopolitical risk consulting company with specific expertise in China, C-MACC has prepared a detailed study looking both at the supply/demand implications of recent and changing behavior and where we may see the much necessary consolidation required to repair what could be chronic oversupply.
This analysis moves well beyond a traditional cost analysis/cost curve approach as integration will be a gating factor in closure decisions, with upstream integration likely more important this time around.
Topic 1
Olefins and polyolefins face the worst downturn the industry has ever experienced.
Topic 2
China’s economic outlook is subdued because of changed fundamentals and is further handicapped by political priorities that make modeling difficult.
Topic 3
Energy transition adds the wildcards of NOCs investing to consume crude oil and other feedstocks, including China investing heavily in green chemicals.
