据MENAFN 9月7日报道，根据ChemAnalyst《2015-2030石化市场分析：工厂产能、生产、运营效率、需求和供应、最终用途、分销渠道、区域需求》的报告，石化市场在历史时期呈现出相当大的增长，预计到 2030 年的预测期内将实现 4.95% 的健康复合年增长率。 随着石化行业对石化产品的需求迅速增长，包括塑料、化妆品、药品、家具、家电、电子、太阳能电池板、风力涡轮机等众多产品的制造，很可能在未来几年促进全球石化市场的增长。石化产品的生产与人类健康和环境的安全标准高度相关，这进一步提高了标准。
石化产品通常是从碳氢化合物中提取出来的，如丙烷、乙烷、丁烷或从原油和天然气液体中提取出来的其他成分。石脑油是一种可燃碳氢化合物的混合物，是从石化产品中提炼出来的一种重要产品。乙烯是一种广泛使用的石化产品，用于制造聚乙烯，聚乙烯是制造业中最重要的塑料之一。其他在商业和工业市场有众多应用的石化产品，包括丙烯用于制造油漆、药品、家具；苯用于电子、食品包装等；甲醇用于建筑施工和保温；甲苯用于油墨和运动设备。石化工业对制造业的发展和经济增长起着重要的作用。石油和天然气工业对石油的主要消费做出了贡献，这进一步推动了石化产品的市场增长。
包括包装、汽车、纺织、快速消费品和建筑行业在内的各种最终用途行业对石化产品的需求不断增长，预计将在未来 5 年推动石化市场的增长。根据类型，石化市场分为 C1 衍生物、C2 衍生物、C3 衍生物、C4 衍生物、芳烃等。石化产品具有普遍性，并且在日常生活应用中的使用越来越多。甲醇（从C1流中获得）用于制造甲醛、染料和中间体、API 配方、农用化学品等工业应用的需求不断增长，以及它在运输中作为清洁燃烧燃料的采用可能会刺激未来全球石化产品的需求年。食品和其他商业产品（如聚乙烯和聚苯乙烯）的塑料包装所需的石化产品的需求也推动了市场的增长。此外，全球各地的新兴经济体正在进行巨额投资，以支持其乘用车和商用汽车制造业，预计全球对橡胶轮胎的需求将在预测期内改善。橡胶轮胎通常来自石化产品丁二烯(C4流的一种产量)。此外，石化洗涤剂和纺织纤维的消费以及不断变化的消费者偏好正在推动全球石化市场到2030年。按类型计算，C2 和 C3 衍生物共占全球石化需求份额的 48% 以上。由于工程塑料、医用塑料、包装薄膜和许多其他最终用途行业的消费量不断增长，行业需求引发了全球石化行业的巨大增长。
2020年，由于新冠肺炎疫情的爆发，全球石化行业受到负面影响，进一步影响了全球石化工业生产。服装、汽车等下游衍生品需求受到较大影响。然而，对个人卫生产品的需求激增推动了用于制造口罩、PPE 套件和一次性用品的C3衍生聚合物市场。从长远来看，随着一些经济体扩大其投资最新制造技术的能力，预计全球石化需求将增加，这将进一步加速预测期内的市场增长。
从地区来看，亚太地区占全球石化市场份额最大，其次是北美和西欧。由于未来几年不断增加的并购和大规模的产能增加，以支持巨大的增长，推动了亚洲石化产品的需求。此外，亚洲以外的一些外国直接投资流动正在考虑有利的政策和人口趋势，这将在未来5年进一步超过亚洲市场的增长。
根据ChemAnalyst《2015-2030石化市场分析：工厂产能、生产、运营效率、需求和供应、最终用途、分销渠道、区域需求》的报告，全球石化市场的主要参与者包括利安德巴塞尔工业公司(Lyondellbasell Industries n.v.)、沙特基础工业公司(SABIC)、陶氏化学(Dow Chemical Co.)、英力士集团(Ineos Group)、巴斯夫公司(BASF S.E)等。
“随着宏观经济因素的增加和消费者偏好的转变，与消费电子、洗涤剂、制药、隔热保温等下游应用相关的全球石化行业已经显示出健康的增长。预计在未来几年，印度将成为全球第五大消费市场。另外，随着新兴国家的人均收入增加，石油化学及相关产品的需求也在增加。因新型冠状病毒疫情而出台的限制措施，影响了全球供应链物流，导致原料化学品立即短缺，导致石化产品价格上涨。随着亚洲石化市场上的新竞争者不断涌现，关注哪个地区将在未来几年占据最大的市场份额显得尤为重要。” TechSci Research的研究总监Karan Chechi先生说。TechSci Research是一家基于研究咨询公司的管理公司，在全球推广ChemAnalyst。

Petrochemicals Market is Expected to Grow at a CAGR of 4.95% by 2030
According to ChemAnalyst report, “Petrochemicals Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Demand & Supply, End Use, Distribution Channel, Regional Demand, 2015-2030”, Petrochemical market has shown considerable growth in historic period and is anticipated to achieve a healthy CAGR of 4.95% during the forecast period until 2030. As the demand of Petrochemicals is rapidly increasing in the petrochemical industry for the manufacturing of numerous products including plastics, cosmetics, medicines, furniture, appliances, electronics, solar power panels, wind turbines etc, it is likely to augment the growth of global Petrochemicals market in upcoming years. The production of Petrochemicals is highly linked with safety standards align="justify"> Petrochemicals are usually extracted from hydrocarbons such as propane, ethane, butane, or other components that are derived from crude oil and natural gas liquids. Naphtha, a mixture of flammable hydrocarbons is an important product made from petrochemicals. A widely used petrochemical is ethylene that is used to create polyethylene which is align="justify"> Growing demand of petrochemical products by various end-use industries including packaging, automotive, textile, FMCGs and construction sectors is expected to bolster the petrochemicals market growth over the next 5 years. based align="justify"> In 2020, due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the Global petrochemicals industry was negatively impacted which further impacted the global industrial production of petrochemicals. The demand of downstream derivatives such as clothing and automotive was highly affected. However, surging demand for personal hygiene products propelled the market of C3 derivative polymers for manufacturing masks, PPE kits and disposable items. In longer terms, it is anticipated that boost in the global petrochemicals demand as several economies are expanding their capacities to invest in latest manufacturing technologies which would further accelerate the market growth in the forecast period.
Region wise, APAC region holds the largest share of Petrochemicals market worldwide followed by North America and Western Europe. Due to increasing mergers and acquisitions along with massive capacity addition in the coming years in order to support the tremendous hike is propelling the Asian petrochemicals demand. Moreover, several FDI flows apart from Asia are looking at the favorable policies and demographic trends, that would further excel the Asian market growth over the next 5 years.
According to ChemAnalyst report, “Petrochemicals Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Demand & Supply, End Use, Distribution Channel, Regional Demand, 2015-2030”, some of the major players operating in global Petrochemicals market include Lyondellbasell Industries N.V., SABIC, The Dow Chemical Co., Ineos Group, BASF S.E and Others.
“Being linked to the downstream applications in consumer electronics, detergents, pharmaceuticals, thermal insulation and others, the global Petrochemicals Industry has shown a healthy growth along with increasing macro-economic factors and shifting consumer preference. It is expected that India will become the fifth largest consumer market across the world in the upcoming years. In addition, growing per capita income in various emerging countries poised a stronger outlook to the country’s Petrochemical and it’s derivates demand. The authorities’ restrictions due to the novel coronavirus affected the global supply chain logistics and caused immediate shortage of feedstock chemicals hence increased the prices of Petrochemicals. With new competitors emerging across the Asian Petrochemicals market, it is extremely important to keep a focus on which region will grab the biggest market share in the coming years.” said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci Research, a management based on research consulting firm promoting ChemAnalyst worldwide.
