1 CHINA OLEFINS Annual Study The ICIS China Olefins Annual Study provides a comprehensive overview and analysis of the country s olefins industry, broken down by key products ethylene, propylene and butadiene (BD) with a one-year supply/demand data forecast. Readers can also gain deeper insight on the dynamic Chinese markets; the study covers recent developments and domestic market trends, such as the interaction between upstream and downstream markets, consumption structure, production and the latest government policies. OVERVIEW Traditionally, China has been heavily reliant on olefins imports. However, the rapid development of the coal-to-olefins (CTO) industry has propelled the expansion of domestic ethylene and propylene capacities. As a result, the country s overall capacity for the olefins market has grown ethylene (19.87m tonnes), propylene (21.81m tonnes) and butadiene (3.26m tonnes) in With ample supply at hand, China is now becoming more self-reliant, a development which poses a threat to international producers in terms of their market share and sales volumes to China. Growing competition from local producers in domestic Chinese markets is compounding the situation. The study digs deeper into the key issues and developments surrounding the Chinese olefins market, to give you a comprehensive analysis on how it can impact your business. This report addresses all of the following questions: How has China s import reliance changed in the olefins market? Who are the key importers of ethylene and propylene in China? What implications does the prevalence of CTO production have for international exporters? Key Features of the Report: Comprehensive overview of China s olefins industry, broken down into key markets ethylene, propylene and BD In-depth supply/demand analysis of China s olefins market and forecast data up to a year ahead Accurate data mapping China s market share of olefins, based on the different production processes of price, import capacity, government policies and latest development trends, including consumption volumes Detailed interaction between the olefins and derivative/downstream markets Enquire about the China Olefins Annual Study

4 CHINA COAL-TO-OLEFINS Competitiveness Report The ICIS China CTO Competitiveness Report enables you to gain a detailed understanding of China s fast-emerging CTO-based production. Including information on the competitiveness and cost differences of coal-based production, as well as a look at other production processes such as propane, methanol, shale and naphtha, the report is a comprehensive resource for market players. To ensure you develop a holistic view of the Chinese CTO market, this study also covers macroeconomic policies and government regulations. Potential drivers and barriers are highlighted, such as the problems and risks associated with CTO production in the domestic Chinese market. OVERVIEW As the shale gas revolution plagues the global chemical markets, industry players are increasingly pushing for low-cost production in their domestic markets. With its abundant capacity in coal production, China is therefore developing coal-based olefins, which has opened a new CTO market. These changes are shifting the domestic competitive landscape, which is now unfamiliar to international market players problematic for those looking to export into Chinese markets. China s policies on the coal-based chemical industry faced strict control and regulation between 2006 and However, recent events in the market demonstrate changing attitudes, with the Chinese government gradually approving the development of this coal-based industry. This report addresses all of the following questions: How is the olefins market likely to change in the future? What kind of competitive pressure will naphtha-based olefins producers in China face? What is the scale of acceptability of the CTO technology in China? Key Features of the Report: Comprehensive analysis of the economy, investment cost, competitive advantage and sustainability of olefins, based on different feedstocks Comparison between olefins production technologies with different feedstocks and their commercial applications Commentary on the influence of CTO developments on China s olefins industry of macroeconomic policies and government regulations, and their impact on the CTO industry Evaluation of challenges and risks and the overall acceptance of China s CTO industry Enquire about the China Coal-to-olefins Competitiveness Report
