Global Petrochemicals Market Overview

Petrochemicals are chemical by-product of oil & gas. Petrochemicals is a crucial driver in industrial sector manipulating almost every sphere of life. They are prepared either from steam cracking of paraffin present in natural gas or from naphtha fraction of crude oil. Petrochemicals are widely classified into three main subsidiaries— aromatics, olefins, and methanol. Products made from petrochemicals include such as plastics, soaps and detergents, solvents, drugs, synthetic fiber and rubbers etc. The main petrochemicals used industry are hydrocarbons; in manufacturing and transportation, resins and films; in medicine, preservatives; in food packaging etc. The global petrochemicals market accounted for US$ 461.94 billion in 2020 and is estimated to be US$ 760.36 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.0%.

Global Petrochemicals Market Dynamics

Petrochemicals has wide application in packaging industry

In the packaging industry, petrochemicals are utilized as a raw material in the manufacturing of polymers. Polyethylene that is made from ethylene can be soft, hard, and pliable. Pliable and soft polyethylene is mainly used as a raw material for flexible packaging. It is usually used to store and package a wide range of products. Whereas, hard polyethylene is utilized for the manufacturing of rigid packaging. With the increase in demand for rigid and flexible packaging, the demand for polyethylene and thus ethylene is projected to rise over the forecast period, which is anticipated to boost the global petrochemicals market growth. Increased fuel efficiencies in new vehicles and vehicle electrification are likely to reduce petrochemical fuel demand. The increasing regulatory frameworks by the governments across the globe to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and enhance vehicle fuel efficiency are likely to pose significant challenges to global petrochemicals consumption in the near future. 

Significant rise in the environmental concerns is estimated to hamper the growth of the petrochemicals market in the coming years. Additionally, growing shift towards the development of the bio-based chemicals is another key factor expected to restrain the growth of the market over the forecast period.
