BMI View:

The US petrochemicals industry continues to expand on the back of growth in ethane availability as a result of shale gas exploitation. However, BMI's latest US Petrochemicals Report warns that the global market may not be able to absorb the level of planned output growth while the domestic market will quickly become saturated. These factors provide considerable downside in the long-term, with the potential for world-scale projects to be scaled back.

According to the American Chemistry Council (ACC), following a 0.2% gain in March, the US Chemical Production Regional Index (US CPRI) was up 0.6% month-on-month (m-o-m) and 2.0% year-on-year (y-oy) in April 2014. However, manufacturing production unexpectedly slipped during April, however, on a three-month moving average (3MMA), output of the nation's overall manufacturing sector was 0.6 percent higher in April, following an upwardly revised 0.4% increase in March. Comparing the first four months of2014 to that in 2013, chemical production was up 1.1% y-o-y nationally, with six of the seven regions posting gains.BMI Industry View . 7SWOT .. 9Political 11Economic ... 12Business Environment . 13Industry Forecast 14Table: US Petrochemicals Industry, 2012-2018 ('000tpa, unless otherwise stated) . 16Macroeconomic Forecasts 17Table: United States - Gdp By Expenditure 23Industry Risk/Reward Ratings .... 25United States Petrochemicals Risk/Reward Ratings ... 25Market Overview . 26Table: Geographical Concentration Of Chemicals Production . 27Industry Trends And Developments 29Cracker Developments .... 29Table: US Petrochemical Expansions Based On Shale Gas . 29Polymers And Intermediates .. 32Methanol .. 34Regulatory Development ... 36Hydraulic Fracturing (Fracking) 37Competitive Landscape 41Upstream 41Olefins .... 42Table: Olefins Production Capacity ('000tpa) . 42Aromatics .... 45Table: Aromatics And Derivatives Capacity ('000tpa) . 46Mixed Xylenes 47Table: Xylenes Capacity ('000tpa) 47Polyethylene (PE) 48Table: US Polyethylene Manufacturing And Applications . 48Table: PE Chain Capacity ('000tpa) . 49High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) 50Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) ... 50Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) 51Polypropylene (PP) ... 52Table: US PP Capacity ('000tpa) 54Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) .... 54Table: PVC Chain Capacity ('000tpa) . 54Polystyrene (PS) .. 55Table: PS Chain Capacity ('000tpa) 56Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) .. 57Table: US Petrochemicals Sector - PET Chain Capacity ('000tpa) 58Company Profile .. 60BP .. 60Table: BP - Financial Results (USDmn) 62Chevron Phillips Chemical Company . 64Dow Chemical . 67Table: Dow Financial Results, 2010-2013 (USDmn) 69ExxonMobil 70Table: Exxon Mobil - Global Financial Results (USDmn) 72Huntsman .. 73Table: Huntsman - Financial Results (USDmn) 74 Ineos .... 76LyondellBasell . 78Table: LyondellBasell Financial Results (US$mn) . 79Shell Chemicals 80Table: Royal Dutch Shell Financial Results (USDmn) . 81Westlake Chemical . 82Table: Westlake Chemical - Financial Results, 2010-2013 (USDmn) . 83Regional Overview ... 84Americas Overview 84Table: Planned PE Projects In North America, 2014-2019 86Latin American Supply Lags Behind Demand .... 88Global Industry Overview ... 92Table: Top 10 Ethylene Producers, 2013 . 95Latin America: The Main Loser In US Expansion Drive 96Asia: New Growth Markets Fuel Global Demand .... 97Challenges For The Arabian Gulf .... 98Russia And CIS: Coming To The Fore .... 98Gasoline .. 100Table: BMI Gasoline Price Forecast, 2012-2018 . 100Weak Q114 For Gasoline ... 101Europe And The US: Competitive Market To Limit Summer Gains 102Asia: Market Rebalancing To Better Support Market .. 105Risks To Outlook 108Diesel . 108Table: BMI Crude Oil And Diesel Price Forecast (USD/bbl) . 109New York's One-Off Heat Up .... 109NY: Short-Term Diesel Price Support Expected .... 112Rotterdam: Green Policies Drive Diesel Forward . 116Singapore: Diesel Support With Power Risks ... 118Risks To Outlook 122Jet Fuel ... 123Table: BMI Crude Oil & Jet Fuel Price Forecast, USD/bbl 123Better Outlook Tames Price Fall .... 123Table: Total Air Freight And Passenger Volume Growth . 125Risks To Outlook 128Bunker Fuel ... 129Table: BMI Crude Oil & Bunker Fuel Price Forecast (USD/bbl) . 129The Storm Clears For Shipping . 130(Slightly) Better Times For Bunker Prices .. 132Long-Term Threats Linger .. 133Pressing Rotterdam & New York Harder ... 135Risks To Outlook 136Demographic Forecast .... 137Table: The United States' Population By Age Group, 1990-2020 ('000) 138Table: The United States' Population By Age Group, 1990-2020 (% of total) 139Table: The United States' Key Population Ratios, 1990-2020 140Table: The United States' Rural And Urban Population, 1990-2020 . 140Glossary ... 141Table: Glossary Of Petrochemicals Terms 141Methodology . 142Industry Forecast Methodology 142Risk/Reward Ratings Methodology . 144Table: Petrochemicals Risk/Reward Rating Indicators . 145Table: Weighting Of Indicators 146
