Highlights
The global economy and financial markets saw ups and downs in 2023. The international situation, economy, trade and foreign investment experienced a huge impact, and the environment of the ethylene industry became more complicated. From the perspective of products, global ethylene capacity continued expanding this year, while the prices of crude oil, propane, methanol and ethane were mixed. Besides, most of the profit losses at major downstream enterprises have not been eased. The balance of ethylene chain changed at high frequency, and ethylene availability for trade increased rapidly, so the change in ethylene price was full of uncertainty. Moreover, China’s ethylene bargaining power in the international ethylene trade has gradually increased, and understanding the changes in China’s ethylene industry structure and industrial chain becomes increasingly essential.
The industry structure and market structure are changing. It is essential for ethylene players to know how to get through difficulties, seize opportunities and achieve profitability improvement amid the rapid release of downstream capacity. Based on 19 years of industry monitoring experience, SCI portrays global and China’s ethylene industry by virtue of massive data, scientific analysis models, as well as supply, demand, price and industrial chain change characteristics. SCI also analyzes the ethylene trade flow change in this annual report. On the whole, 2023-2024 China Ethylene Market Annual Report will present a comprehensive and fresh perspective to customers through more specific data dimension and subtle changes in the ethylene industry.
1. To present global ethylene industry pattern by analyzing the global and China’s ethylene supply and demand pattern.
2. To better show China’s ethylene supply and demand patterns by tracking ethylene capacity, output and operating rates over the past 3-5 years.
3. To update market players on clearer international trade pattern of ethylene via analyzing import and export trade flow.
4. To point out the direction of feedstock selection for new entrants via analyzing the feedstock structure and competitiveness from multiple perspectives.
5. To interpret changes in downstream consumption patterns deeply and seek growth points in the industry.
6. To show transmission process of the industry value chain via dissecting ethylene upstream and downstream industry profits.
