Petrochemical Market Size is Projected to Hit US$ 798.8 Billion by 2030

The petrochemical market size was USD 498.47 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 798.8 billion by 2030. It is anticipated to grow with a healthy CAGR of 5.4% from 2021 to 2030.

In 2022, the petrochemical market study provides crucial information on market share, market size, growth rate analysis Y-O-Y, production, consumption, and sales analysis for the forecast period 2021 to 2030. The report contains 150+ pages with detailed analysis.

Petrochemical is an essential part of the chemical industry due to its increased adoption for synthetic material production. Petrochemicals are majorly produced from hydrocarbons like butane, ethane, propane, and other components of natural gas or petroleum. Thousands of end use products are manufactured using petrochemicals such as wind turbines, solar power panels, furniture, cosmetics, medicines, electronics, and plastics among others. Petrochemical plays crucial role in the growth of global economy. Petrochemicals are primarily manufactured using catalytic reforming, Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC), and steam cracking processes. Among all the products ethylene, propylene, toluene, methanol, and benzene are widely used petrochemicals across the globe. Toluene is used in the manufacturing of sports equipment’s and inks, while benzene is used in the food packaging, electronics, and furniture production. Ethylene and propylene are majorly adopted in paints, paper, detergent, electronics, and adhesive industries however; methanol is used for the construction of the buildings and thermal insulations. Excellent chemical as well as physical properties offered by the petrochemicals make it material of choice in many commercial applications across the globe.

Growth Factors:

Increasing usage of petrochemical in industrial applications including construction, automotive, aviation, food, electricals, paint and coatings, paper and pulp is major factor driving growth of the global petrochemical market. Additionally, capacity expansion of petrochemical by the major operating players is another factor expected to boost growth of the target market in the coming years. Moreover, petrochemical industry provides several raw materials to the processing industries. This is in turn creating huge adoption of petrochemicals in manufacturing and processing industries worldwide and boosting growth of the global market. Further, evolution of the shale gas in the developed economies such as U.S. and Canada that has led to decrease the feedstock prices which has positive impact on the industrial growth. Nevertheless, emerging markets of petrochemical is anticipated to create potential opportunities for the growth of the target market.

COVID-19 Impact:

The industrial report mentions the influence of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The outbreak has caused disturbances in several industries and has hammered the logistics, resulting in delayed deliveries and cancellation of product demand. The petrochemical report proficiently explains the resulting factors and concerns of manufacturers. Researchers have also well-explained how the producers and providers will tackle the ongoing epidemic and the key strategies to be adopted post-pandemic for turning their businesses back to normal.

Regional Analysis:

The report covers data for North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific dominated the global market with a market share of more than 50%, in 2020. The growth of the region primarily attributed to rapid industrialization, coupled with increasing consumption of the petrochemical in countries of the Asia Pacific especially in the China. Increasing adoption of petrochemical in China for the various end user applications including automotive, electronics, construction, food & beverages is major factors boosting growth of the target industry and in turn growth of the Asia Pacific region. Further, presence of leading players, along with favorable government regulations are among major factors augmenting growth of the target market in the near future.

North America is expected to register significant market share in global market over the forecasted period, owing to growing activities of shale gas exploration in the North American countries especially in the United States and Canada of the region. U.S. and Canada accounted for more than 90% production of the shale gas in 2018. Further, capacity expansion by the leading players in the North America is among major factors anticipated to augment target industry growth in this region during the forecast period. Moreover, growing research and development activities by the key companies in the country is other important factor to contribute the high market share of North America over the forecast period. Growth in Europe is accredited to growing production of the ethylene in U.K. Germany and France, along with growing product demand from the automotive and construction industries. African and Middle Eastern region will display noticeable growth over the forecast period.
