Highlights
In 2024, China’s propylene supply and demand saw further expansion, with PDH remaining the mainstream of capacity expansion. At the same time, downstream new capacity was released in the PP, PO, NBA, and 2-EH industries. China’s propylene supply growth remained higher than that of demand, further intensifying the oversupply pressure in the industry. Production enterprises had to adjust their operating rate to influence market trends, and the propylene unit fluctuations increased year-on-year.
The propylene production profits via different production technologies mostly remained negative except for the profit from producing coal-based propylene, which saw a slight improvement. As for the downstream products, the profits from producing NBA and 2-EH were positive. In 2024, China’s propylene prices fluctuated within a narrower range due to more constraints, and the prices this year hovered at middle and low levels compared with the recent five years. The market continued to develop toward diversity, integration, and large scale. How to transform, upgrade, and increase efficiency to maximize profits became the urgent demand of market players.
