Petrochemical Industry Outlook 2020

The global petrochemical industry has witnessed strong volume growth and buoyant profit margins for years. Beyond the surface of the mere record profits that leading petrochemical industry players have observed over the past few years, the petrochemical industry today is on the verge of a profound transformation. 

Looking ahead to 2020, slower demand growth from emerging geographies are likely to undermine the value creation strategies of businesses. Every petrochemical plant will have to adopt a more disciplined approach to value creation, capacity additions, and business transformation. This will involve the use of market intelligence and advanced analytics to attain a new higher level of business productivity. Petrochemical industry players will also have to focus on managing the transition from an essentially linear economy to a more circular one.
