Crude-to-chemicals Market Overview


The global crude-to-chemicals market size is projected to be worth USD 800 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.34% during the forecast period (2022–2030).


Crude-to-chemicals continues to be a powerful market with a strong trend of high interest to all integrated refineries and chemicals producers in majorly China, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe. This is reinforced by many factors, most notably the forecasts which predict a slowing of transportation fuels growth approaching due to hybrid and electric vehicles, while growth in chemicals is expected to increase as populations and middle class wealth continue to rise, leading to increasing demand for packaging, consumer goods, and automobiles.


COVID-19 Impact on the Crude-to-chemicals Market:


The rapid spread of COVID-19 is causing significant disruption to a wide range of industries across the globe. Some of the major crude-to-chemicals end-users include the automotive & transportation, building & construction, and electrical & electronics industries. As these industries come under essential services, the impact of COVID-19 was not as worse as other industries.


In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had no significant impact on the fertilizers industry as most countries consider the fertilizers industry and related agricultural businesses essential. The outbreak of COVID-19 has significantly impacted the chemicals & materials supply chains, mining operations, international trade, and manufacturing processes across the world. As a result of a lockdown across geographies, the production facilities have faced disruptions. The market players have had to shut production facilities or operate the facilities below the optimal production capacities to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Plastics, the most well-known group of goods made out of crude-to-chemicals, and have outperformed all other bulk materials in terms of demand (such as steel, aluminum, or cement). More than half of ammonia is turned to urea, which is primarily utilized as a fertilizer to raise agricultural yields and food production worldwide. The industry value pool fell in 2019 due to major capacity increases and slower demand growth. The pandemic, which began in 2020, has accelerated this decline. The impact of the novel coronavirus on crude-to-chemicals demand was uneven throughout value chains, with sharp drops in automotive and construction applications. Other value chains, such as polyurethanes (used for flexible and rigid foam panels, seals, and gaskets), showed a fall in demand. In contrast, polyethylene players (which make products such as plastic containers for milk, motor oil, and shampoos) remained robust. On the other hand, several chemical manufacturers modified their existing factories to satisfy the rising demand for isopropyl alcohol and ethanol.


Market Dynamics


Drivers


  • Increasing Use of Polymers in the Automotive Industry


Crude-to-chemicals are used as raw materials in the manufacturing of plastics in the. The polyethylene that is produced from ethylene can be hard, soft, and pliable. Soft and pliable polyethylene is commonly used as a raw material for flexible plastic products. However, hard polyethylene is used as a material for rigid plastic products. With the increase in demand for plastics, the demand for ethylene is expected to increase in the coming years, consequently boosting the demand for crude-to-chemicals.


Restraints


  • Increasing Environmental Concerns


Crude-to-chemicals, when released into the environment by the means of refining pricess, have a significant negative impact. These materials are usually olefins, aromatic compounds, alcohols, or hydrocarbon chains. Although crude-to-chemicals are used as raw materials in innumerable products, they are hazardous to the ecosystem. Aromatic compounds present in the crude-to-chemicals are the major source of environmental pollutants that may be introduced into the environment through industrial waste products, natural oil seeps, emissions, accidental spills from oil tankers, oil storage and coal tar processing waste, and petrochemical industrial effluents.


Opportunity


  • Adoption of Novel Technologies


The crude-to-chemical manufacturers across the globe are adopting novel technologies, such as coal to olefins (CTO), methanol to olefin (MTO), and shale gas technology, for producing olefins, instead of using valuable products such as naphtha as a raw material. CTO technology uses low-cost feedstock such as coal, which is a residue of the crude oil refining process, to derive olefins such as ethylene or propylene. MTO technology uses methanol, which is either derived from natural gas or coal, to produce olefins. Thus, the use of new technologies is projected to create lucrative opportunities for the manufacturers of crude-to-chemicals during the forecast period.


Trends


  • Volatile Raw Material Prices


The brent crude oil prices have risen notably between 2016–2021. Over the last 25 years, a sharp increase and decrease in prices have periodically affected the global crude oil market. Fluctuating crude oil prices have affected the production of crude-to-chemicals, which is estimated to be the major challenge for the manufacturers operating in the global crude-to-chemicals market during the forecast period.

Regional Analysis


The Asia-Pacific market accounted for the largest share, by value and volume, followed by the North America and Europe markets in 2021. The market in Asia-Pacific offers opportunities for growth to manufacturers and is slated to register the highest CAGR. This growth can be mainly attributed to the increase in government investments, expansion of production capacity, a collaboration of key players in the region, and high demand from end-use industries. Further, China emerged as one of the largest producers and consumers of crude-to-chemicals. China’s investment has been majorly focused on crude-to-chemicals production and on-purpose propylene processes.


North America accounted for the second-largest market. The growth in the North America crude-to-chemicals market is mainly attributed to the shale gas discoveries in the US and Canada, which has significantly increased the supply of natural gas liquids, transforming North America into a low-cost region for the production of chemicals. Furthermore, a large number of global companies are planning to expand and build new facilities in the region. The growth in Europe can be mostly attributed to technological advancements, a well-developed crude-to-chemical industry, and a large number of sophisticated refineries.


Competitive Landscape


The global crude-to-chemicals market is expected to showcase healthy growth throughout the forecast period. The global market represents strong numbers in terms of consumption and is expected to grow year on year. The global crude-to-chemicals market is highly fragmented, with a majority presence of tier-1 players.


Some of the key players operating in the global crude-to-chemicals market are Saudi Arabian Oil Co., Shell Global, Indian Oil Corporation Ltd., ExxonMobil, Sinopec, Hengli Petrochemical, Reliance Industries, and Total.


Some of the key developments include:



  • Saudi Aramco plans to invest more than $100 B in chemicals over the next decade. The company will convert 3 MMbpd of oil—nearly one-third of its production—to chemicals in the next 15 yr. Their recent announcement to acquire SABIC for $69 B will transform Saudi Aramco into one of the largest chemical companies in the world and provide opportunities for further upstream integration of SABIC’s assets. Their potential investment in patented crude-oil-to-chemicals technology will allow the company to take full advantage of the benefits of refining-to-chemicals integration.
