The following is an extract from CMAIs 2012 World Light Olefins Analysis, which was compiled to provide clients with a historical perspective of the global light olefins market, and also to analyze and predict the changes in the global market for light olefins and the associated derivatives over the next five years. Areas covered in this analysis include capacity, supply, demand, trade, prices, production costs, profitability and technology. Economic outlook, energy growth forecast and price projections provide the basis for forecasts of supply/demand fundamentals and production economics. Complementing the forecasts are assessments of historical and current market developments by country and region, with a focus on strategic issues such as cost competitiveness, trade flow, and production/consumption growth. Comprehensive datasets covering the period from 2006 to 2016 present economic developments, market share, technologies, capacities, prices, supply, demand, and trade on a country level to support the conclusions. Introduction The 2012 World Light Olefins Analysis is intended to provide clients with a general overview of the global supply and demand trends for light olefins markets, as well as a more detailed examination of key market issues that, in CMAIs opinion, will have a significant strategic impact on ethylene and propylene markets over the next five years. In this write-up, we will focus on some of the key themes and issues from the 2012 World Light Olefins Analysis that will have an impact on the future of the global olefins market.

Global demand for ethylene and propylene has historically grown at a multiple of world gross domestic product (GDP) growth. However, the relationship between olefin demand growth and economic growth is becoming more ambiguous, since many products produced by olefin end-users are increasingly being used for less cyclical non-durable applications. This is resulting in lower multiples to GDP growth, particularly in developed countries. In addition, the olefin demand to GDP elasticity is diluted by the increasing influence of the services sector on GDP growth and the correspondingly lower impact of manufacturing.
The 2011 to 2016 forecast anticipates ethylene demand and propylene demand to grow at an average rate of 1.0 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 and 1.2 times GDP, respectively. Compared to the past Ethylene Propylene ~ 20 years, the spread between propylene and ethylene demand growth rates will become increasingly narrow. Historically, when propylene prices were discounted versus ethylenethereby making propylene derivatives more competitive than ethylene derivativesit was common for propylene demand growth to far outpace ethylene demand growth on a global basis. Alternative Economic Growth Scenarios Will Have a Large Impact on Market Outlook Ethylene demand growth projections are based on CMAIs long-term GDP forecast. The main scenario anticipates global GDP growth of 3.8 percent on average between 2011 and 2016. Based on a GDP elasticity of around 1.2, when averaged over the next five years, ethylene demand is expected to expand at a rate of 4.3 percent, while operating rates should reach 90 percent by the end of the forecast period.
Deviations in the pace of global economic growth from CMAIs main scenario, all else being equal, would lead 20.0 to corresponding changes in ethylene demand growth 0.0 70.0 trends, which would in turn either lower or raise average 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 plant utilization. A one percent deviation either up or Base Demand Optimistic Demand down from CMAIs main GDP forecast scenario would Pessimistic Demand Base Operating Rate Optimistic Operating Rate Pessimistic Operating Rate ~ result in a 1.2 percent increase or decrease in average annual ethylene demand growth rates. By 2016, ethylene demand volumes would be 8.4 million metric tons lower in the pessimistic case compared to the base assumption. Conversely, they would be almost 8.8 million metric tons higher in the optimistic case if global GDP expands one percentage point faster than assumed in the base assumption.

The Divergence in Energy Prices is Creating Regional Opportunities
Ethylene production costs are mostly determined by underlying feedstock prices derived from either 18 natural gas (ethane, butane and propane) or crude oil 100% 16 (naphtha and gas oil). While steam crackers in West Europe and Asia are mainly naphtha-based, ethylene 14 80% production in the Middle East and North America, 12 as well as parts of SE Asia and South America, 10 60% uses mainly ethane-based feedstocks. Therefore, 8 changes in the price of natural gas relative to crude 40% 6 oil determine the competitiveness of producers, countries and whole regions.

The focus of future ethylene capacity additions has thus shifted back to North America.

Growth in ethylene derivative consumption will be mainly driven by the rapid economic development in Asiaparticularly in China and increasingly also in India. Today the Asian region, including SE Asia, NE Asia and the Indian Subcontinent, accounts for an estimated 45 percent of the global ethylene equivalent consumption contained in derivatives. Asias share is expected to increase steadily as economic growth is expected to be modest in North America and West Europe, the other major consuming regions.

Propylene demand typically has grown slightly faster than demand for ethylene. The faster pace stemmed mainly from higher consumption rates by polypropylene, propylenes largest derivative, when compared to polyethylene, which dominates ethylene demand. However, as propylene prices have increased relative to ethylene prices, demand growth for polypropylene has slowed in comparison to polyethylene. In the future, the propylene to ethylene (P/E) price ratio is expected to remain close to 1.0, suggesting that the rate of demand growth for ethylene and propylene will be more closely aligned than in the past.

Monthly Ethylene Price Forecast: In Asia, the majority of crackers suffered from negative margins in October due to low ethylene prices and surging energy and feedstock values in line with sharply decreasing by-product prices. Chinas tightened credit policy has been hampering downstream demand, while stable-to-high cracker running rates in the Middle East have been ensuring sufficient monomer and polymer supplies in Asia. Some crackers in Asia started to reduce their operating rates in October and further rate reductions are expected in November. Compared with stable cracker operations in other Middle Eastern countries, Iran faced feedstock restrictions for much of October. Many crackers in Iran were impacted by those restrictions with low running rates; however, export volumes should once again increase in November as availability improves. Ethylene prices in Asia have almost bottomed out around $1,000 per metric ton CFR Asia as producers in many countries have started to reduce running rates. Prices are forecast to remain around the current levels, with small rebounds expected at the end of November or in early December.

Monthly Propylene Price Forecast: Propylene prices in Asia fell further in October amid a worsening global economy and weak downstream demand. In addition to excess regional cargoes caused by reduced derivative operating rates, deep-sea cargoes weighed on already weak sentiments in various regions. Increasingly negative cracker margins in Asia forced many crackers to reduce their running rates to below 90 percent in October, and further rate cuts have been announced since the beginning of November. The propylene balance turned long to balanced with no more cargoes expected from Europe and reduced cracker operations in Asia; however, demand is not expected to recover soon. Prices in Asia have not yet bottomed out, but they are unlikely to drop below $1,200 per metric ton CFR Asia. High cost pressure will support low-end prices around $1,200 per metric ton CFR Asia, with prices expected to rebound to above $1,300 per metric ton in November or early December. However, with the year-end approaching, cracker operators will try to reduce their inventories before the end of December and this will cap the price rebound.

Annual Olefins Forecast: The new baseline GDP forecast now includes the assumption of a mild recession in the eurozone extending from 4Q 2011 to 1Q 2012. The recession will be triggered by the ongoing European debt crisis and the inability of policymakers to avoid a Greek default as Greece continues to miss its financial targets. Downward revisions of regional GDP growth not only for Europe, but also for other regionsparticularly for the next two quartershave resulted in lower global rates, now estimated at 2.8 percent for 4Q 2011 and 2.5 percent for 1Q 2012. The 3.0 percent global GDP growth forecast for the full year 2012 now matches the 2011 rate, but growth is still expected to accelerate to 3.8 percent by 2013 as a more solidly based recovery gains traction. Based on Purvin & Gertzs latest naphtha supply/demand fundamentals and crude oil forecast, naphtha price projections have been adjusted to an average of $948 per metric ton CFR Japan for 2011 and $969 per metric ton CFR Japan for 2012. Correspondingly, our Asian naphtha cash cost projections based on Purvin & Gertzs energy and feedstock forecasts are at an average of $1,038 per metric ton for 2011 and $1,230 per metric ton for 2012.

Olefins Production Costs: Global petroleum prices rallied strongly in October, with WTI increasing nearly $20 per barrel and Brent increasing just below $15 per barrel throughout the month. Despite the strong price movement, WTI and Brent prices ended the month averaging just above $85 and $109 per barrel, respectively. As a result, the spread between Brent and WTI narrowed, with the monthly average spread at just under $24 per barrel. Based on Purvin & Gertzs forecasts for December 2011 and January 2012, naphtha prices are expected to be $934 and $937 per metric ton CFR Japan, respectively, which translates into naphtha cracking production cash cost of around $1,328 per metric ton for December and $1,286 per metric ton for January. Based on CMAIs latest forecast, integrated cracker (with butadiene and BTX extraction units) margins are expected to recover by 1H 2012, much earlier than standalone cracker margins.

Energy & Feedstock Costs: The Dated Brent price has been volatile in the past weeks, but it now appears to be stabilizing at around $110 per barrel. The potential for near-term supply-side improvement is limited. The economic threats from the eurozone debt crisis are mounting to undermine some support in the total demand growth outlook. The resulting price outlook carries some near-term downside before stabilizing again at about $110 per barrel. The Dated Brent to WTI spread has started narrowing to the $16$17 per barrel range with the recovery in production from Libya and inventories at Cushing below the 2011 peak. Asian naphtha market sentiment remained bearish despite the recovery in regional demand from NE Asia. The market was supported by demand from continued higher operating rates at South Korean petrochemical plants, excluding SK Corp's small cracker. Petrochemical demand has remained soft amid monetary tightening measures in China and India to tame inflation, coupled with the extremely uncertain European economic outlook. Our latest balances show that the East-ofSuez naphtha market is forecast to remain marginally net short. However, weakening of the gasoline market is expected to weigh on naphtha market sentiment.

Ethylene Supply/Demand Balances: Cracker operators in Asia have started to cut their operating rates since October amid weak downstream demand. Integrated producers are also affected as downstream derivative prices continue on the downtrend with no respite in sight. As most crackers return from their turnarounds and shutdowns in 4Q, the ample availability in the region has forced producers to slash their operating rates amid falling demand. Crackers in China, Taiwan and Japan are running at 8090 percent, while South Korean crackers are at around 9095 percent. Crackers in SE Asia have also reduced their run rates to around 85 percent in the face of weak demand. This situation is expected to remain unchanged for the rest of the year. As the economic climate remains weak with the ongoing crisis in Europe, buyers will remain cautious and purchase only on a hand-to-mouth basis. The peak buying period for the year-end holidays is already over, hence there is limited optimism among downstream producers for the remaining months of 2011.

Ethylene Trade Statistics: Iranian exports for the rest of the year are expected to improve with the plant operation in Bandar Assaluyeh recovering. Work on a gas processing plant during October limited plant operating rates to the point that Morvarid PC had to shut down in October. There was also some excess supply of ethylene from Sabic for November arrival into SE Asia due to operational issues at the Kayan HDPE, but we expect export volumes to return to normal for the rest of the year. With the imminent start-up of the QAPCO LDPE plant in Qatar, export volumes are expected to decline slightly for the rest of the year. However, the increased operation of the Borouge II capacity is expected to increase export opportunities into SE Asia, even for 2012. The bleak global economic outlook for the remainder of the year has limited derivative trade volumes. In early November, Chinas domestic market was stronger than the import market as buyers were reluctant to purchase import cargoes due to the longer delivery time, thus keeping Middle Eastern PE exports limited. We expect this to continue throughout the rest of the year. Some recovery in exports is expected during late 1Q and 2Q 2012 when positive economic sentiment recovers.

Propylene Trade Statistics: Propylene trade from Thailand has been impacted by the start-up of Dows new HPPO plant, which has reportedly achieved full operation. The reported start-up of Polytamas PP plant in Indonesia is expected to increase import volumes into SE Asia. Thus, the arbitrage opportunity from NE Asia and Europe into SE Asia is expected to remain fairly open for the rest of the year. However, trade volumes from NE Asia are expected to be affected by the steam cracker operation cuts by most cracker operators in NE Asia. Chinese import volume for the rest of the year is also expected to be more cautious, depending on sentiment in the derivative markets. Some short-lived momentum in the PP market is expected to encourage some import interest for propylene for December, but this is expected to fade as China enters into the Lunar New Year holiday period in January. Domestic PP demand in Thailand is also not showing any signs of improving as the country struggles to cope with the flood situation, resulting is some export potential.
