Ethylene Global Demand-Supply Scenario
India Equity Research | Oil, Gas and Services
Global demand for ethylene to grow at a healthy rate of 4.8% CAGR over
2010-15, compared to a growth rate of 1.5% over the last 5 years. In spite
of healthy demand, there is likely to be an oversupply situation during
2010-11 due largely to huge capacity addition in the Middle East and
China – leading to decreased ethylene prices and margins. The situation is
expected to improve after 2011 due to limited capacity addition. Global
capacity utilization decreased to around 80% during 2010, but is expected
to increase substantially till 2015 to reach a high of 95%.
Global ethylene oversupply scenario not as bad
Though there is concern that the new capacities coming up in the Middle East and
China are going to flood the world market, depressing ethylene prices and margins, we
believe that most of the scheduled projects, amounting to 10 mtpa (million tonnes per
annum), have already come online by 2010. Only marginal new capacity of 9 mtpa is
expected to come online till 2015. Large projects totaling 12 mtpa, which are delayed
because of a number of reasons, such as, feedstock availability, impact of financial
crisis, regulatory approval and environmental impact, are not expected to come online
anytime soon.
Healthy demand growth led by polymer demand in China and India
Demand for ethylene is expected to grow at a healthy rate of 4.8% CAGR between
2011-15 driven by strong polyethylene (PE) demand from developing economies in
Asia. PE demand per capita in India is very low at 2kg against a world average of 10.3
kg. We expect the PE demand per capita in developing countries like China and India to
grow in line with their high GDP growth rate, consuming the added capacity.
Asian crackers have bi-product netback; Middle East (ME) crackers
short of feedstock
Most of the crackers that are coming up in China are Naphtha based. Though Naphtha
costs more than Ethane, it gives 17x more bi-product netback than ethane based
crackers.
On the other hand, large projects planned in the Middle East are delayed or cancelled
because of concerns of natural gas availability – thus tightening ethylene supply
situation. The two factors together are expected to contribute positively to cracker
operators’ bottom lines.
Ethylene margins to grow in line with higher capacity utilization
We expect that the utilization rates of the crackers will reach a trough in 2010-11, and
then the demand scenario will tighten till 2015 – primarily driven by healthy demand
growth in line with rebound in global economy and less capacity addition. This will drive

Ethylene Supply
Global ethylene capacity has dramatically increased between 2005 and 2010 from 115.2 million tonnes per annum to
144 mtpa, growing at a CAGR 4.6%. During the same period China has added 14.2 mtpa of ethylene cracker capacity,
while Middle Eastern

Middle East:
Availability of cheap crude oil and high dependence of the kingdoms on oil revenue have driven the kingdoms and
governments to diversify into manufacturing commodity chemicals and capture more value from the commodity
nature of crude oil. Middle Eastern countries are also better positioned to transport petrochemicals at a lower cost to
developed markets in Europe, as well as high growth markets in Asia. This being a labor intensive industry, the
governments are also able to generate meaningful employment for its people by developing the petrochemical
industry. To bring about rapid growth in the petrochemicals industry, Middle Eastern countries provide different
incentives to investors. Some of the incentives typically provided in Saudi Arabia include:
Subsidized natural gas at $ 0.75 per Mmbtu.
A complex discount system for domestic users with NGLs garnering a 30 percent discount on the export price of
naphtha and naphtha itself receiving an 11 percent discount on its export price. Costs therefore fluctuate in line
with global oil prices, though Saudi producers using liquids still retain a competitive advantage.

Capacity growth in Asia has been largely led by capacity
large scale projects in China. Chinese state-

rapidly building new ethylene capacity, aided by
favorable government policies for joint ventures
with foreign majors. But, environmental worries,
economically unviable size of scattered
petrochemicals plants and the potential threat of

production. In the long term, China could be a
potential competitor to Middle Eastern
petrochemicals players as petrochemical imports
from the Kingdoms are replaced by local Chinese

Due to the commoditized nature of the basic chemicals business, price is the single most important factor in
determining the competitiveness of players in the market place as there is only marginal differentiation between the
products of different suppliers.

Petrochemicals are produced by cracking Naphtha or

Since 2008, the relative price of U.S. ethane (as a
percent of crude oil price) has been trending down,
due to cheaper U.S. natural gas. This benefits the
petrochemical producers using natural gas as feed
stock, but there is always a trade off as naphtha
unlocks more sophisticated derivatives.
Cracking ethane generates a large proportion of

APPENDIX – I
What is Ethylene?
Ethylene is the raw material used in the manufacture of polymers such as polyethylene (PE), polyethylene
terephthalate (PET), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polystyrene (PS) as well as fibers and other organic chemicals. These
products are used in a wide variety of industrial and consumer markets such as the packaging, transportation,
electrical/electronic, textile and construction industries as well as consumer chemicals, coatings and adhesives.
Ethylene is one of the largest-volume petrochemicals. With a diverse range of end-uses, demand for ethylene is
sensitive to both economic and energy cycles. It is often seen as a barometer to the performance of the petrochemical
industry as whole.
According to CMAI, global production and consumption of ethylene in 2010 were both approximately 115m tonnes.
Global capacity utilization (demand / capacity) was 83.1% in 2010, down from 88% in 2009. Ethylene consumption is
estimated to have increased by 2.1% in 2010; it is forecast to grow an average 4.9% per year up to 2015.
Ethylene Value Chain

14 Edelweiss Securities Limited
15. Sector Update
Feedstocks
Ethane: Ethane is isolated on an industrial scale from natural gas, and as a byproduct of petroleum refining. Its
chief use is as petrochemical feedstock for ethylene production.
Naphtha: Naphtha is obtained in petroleum refineries as one of the intermediate products from the distillation
of crude oil. It is a liquid intermediate between the light gases in the crude oil and the heavier liquid kerosene.
The generic name 'naphtha' describes a range of different refinery intermediate products used in different
applications. Naphtha is used primarily as feedstock for producing high octane gasoline (via the catalytic
reforming process). It is also used in the bitumen mining industry as a diluent, the petrochemical industry for
producing olefins in steam crackers, and the chemical industry for solvent (cleaning) applications.
Intermediates
Ethylene Oxide: Because of its special molecular structure, ethylene oxide easily participates in the addition
reaction and thus easily polymerizes. Although it is a vital raw material with diverse applications, including the
manufacture of products like polyethylene glycol that are often more effective and less toxic than alternative
materials, ethylene oxide itself is a very hazardous substance: at room temperature it is a flammable,
carcinogenic, mutagenic, irritating, and anesthetic gas with a misleadingly pleasant aroma. Therefore, it is
commonly handled and shipped as a refrigerated liquid.
The chemical reactivity that is responsible for many of
Chart A1-2: Global Ethylene
ethylene oxide's hazards has also made it a key industrial Derivatives
chemical that supports the living standards of advanced
societies. Ethylene oxide (EO) is primarily used to make
ethylene glycol. Other EO derivatives include ethyoxylates
(for use in shampoo, kitchen cleaners, etc), glycol ethers
(solvents, fuels, etc) and ethanol amines (surfactants,
personal care products, etc).
Ethylene Glycol: Ethylene glycol is an organic compound
widely used as automotive antifreeze and a precursor to
polymers. Ethylene glycol is produced from ethylene, via
the intermediate ethylene oxide. Ethylene oxide reacts with Source:Edelweiss research
water to produce ethylene glycol.
Most monoethylene glycol (MEG) is used to make polyester fibers for textile applications, PET resins for bottles
and polyester film. MEG is also used in antifreeze applications.
Ethyl Benzene: This aromatic hydrocarbon is important in the petrochemical industry as an intermediate in the
production of styrene, which in turn is used for making polystyrene, a common plastic material.
Although often present in small amounts in crude oil, ethylbenzene is produced in bulk quantities by
combining benzene and ethylene in an acid-catalyzed chemical reaction.
15 Edelweiss Securities Limited
16. Oil and Gas
Styrene: Styrene, also known as vinyl benzene, is a colorless oily liquid that evaporates easily. The presence of
the vinyl group allows styrene to polymerize. Commercially significant products include polystyrene, ABS,
styrene-butadiene (SBR) rubber, styrene-butadiene latex and other products.
Ethylene dichloride: Ethylene dichloride (EDC) is a chlorinated hydrocarbon, mainly used to produce vinyl
chloride monomer (VCM), the major precursor for PVC production. Production is primarily achieved through
the iron (III) chloride-catalyzed reaction of ethylene and chlorine.
Vinyl chloride: VCM is an important industrial chemical chiefly used to produce the polymer polyvinyl chloride
(PVC). It can be produced by two methods - hydrochlorination of acetylene and dehydrochlorination of
ethylene dichloride. Due to the relatively low cost of ethylene, compared to acetylene, most vinyl chloride has
been produced via dehydrochlorination of EDC, despite lower yields (50-60%), lower product purity and higher
costs for waste treatment.
Derivatives
PET: Polyethylene terephthalate is a thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family and is used in
synthetic fibers; beverage, food and other liquid containers; thermoforming applications; and engineering
resins often in combination with glass fiber. The majority of the world's PET production is for synthetic fibers
(in excess of 60%) with bottle production accounting for around 30% of global demand. In discussing textile
applications, PET is generally referred to as simply "polyester" while "PET" is used most often to refer to
packaging applications. The polyester industry makes up about 18% of world polymer production.
Polystyrene: PS is an aromatic polymer made from the
monomer styrene. Polystyrene is one of the most widely
used plastics, the scale being several billion kilograms per
year. Solid polystyrene is used, for example, in disposable
cutlery, plastic models, CD and DVD cases, and smoke
detector housings. Products made from foamed
polystyrene are nearly ubiquitous, for example packing
materials, insulation, and foam drink cups.
Polyethylene: The largest outlet, accounting for 60% of
ethylene demand globally, is polyethylene. Polyethylene is
a thermoplastic polymer consisting of long chains
produced by combing the ingredient monomer ethylene.
PE is classified into several different categories based
mostly on its density and branching. The mechanical properties of PE depend significantly on variables such as
the extent and type of branching, the crystal structure and the molecular weight. With regard to sold volumes,
the most important polyethylene grades are HDPE, LLDPE and LDPE.
16 Edelweiss Securities Limited
17. Sector Update
HDPE is defined by a density of greater or equal to 0.941 g/cm3. It has
a low degree of branching and thus stronger intermolecular forces and
tensile strength. HDPE is used in products and packaging such as milk
jugs, detergent bottles, margarine tubs, garbage containers and water
pipes. One third of all toys are manufactured from HDPE.
Source:Edelweiss research
LDPE is defined by a density range of 0.910–0.940 g/cm3. It has a
high degree of short and long chain branching, which means that
the chains do not pack into the crystal structure as well. This results
in a lower tensile strength and increased ductility. The high degree
of branching with long chains gives molten LDPE unique and
desirable flow properties. LDPE is used for both rigid containers and
plastic film applications such as plastic bags and film wrap.
Source:Edelweiss research
17 Edelweiss Securities Limited
18. Oil and Gas
LLDPE is defined by a density range of 0.915–0.925 g/cm3. It is a
substantially linear polymer with significant numbers of short
branches. LLDPE has higher tensile strength than LDPE and
exhibits higher impact and puncture resistance; thus lower
thickness (gauge) films can be blown, compared with LDPE, with
better environmental stress cracking resistance but is not as
easy to process. LLDPE is used in packaging, particularly film for
bags and sheets. Lower thickness may be used compared to
LDPE for use in cable covering, toys, lids, buckets, containers
and pipe. While other applications are available, LLDPE is used
predominantly in film applications due to its toughness, flexibility Source:Edelweiss research
and relative transparency. Product examples range from
agricultural films, saran wrap, and bubble wrap, to multilayer and composite films.
PVC: Polyvinyl chloride is a thermoplastic polymer. PVC is the third most widely produced plastic, after
polyethylene and polypropylene. It is widely used in construction because it is cheap, durable, and easy to
assemble. A number of PVC's properties recommend it for a wide variety of applications. It is biologically and
chemically resistant, making it the plastic of choice for most household sewerage pipes and other pipe
applications where corrosion would limit the use of metal. With the addition of impact modifiers and
stabilizers, it becomes a popular material for window and door frames. By adding plasticizers, it can become
flexible enough to be used in cabling applications as a wire insulator. It is also used to make vinyl records.
PVC is a controversial material in that during its production, useful life and incineration, especially in accidental
and uncontrolled circumstances, it may liberate persistent toxins, which the manufacture, use and destruction
of suitable alternative plastics, such as, polypropylene do not.
Other ethylene derivatives include alpha olefins which are used in LLDPE production, detergent alcohols and
plasticizer alcohols; vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) which is used in adhesives, paints, paper coatings and
barrier resins; and industrial ethanol which is used as a solvent or in the manufacture of chemical
intermediates such as ethyl acetate and ethylacrylate.

APPENDIX – II
How is Ethylene Produced?
Ethylene is produced commercially by the steam cracking of a wide range of hydrocarbon feedstocks. In Europe and
Asia, ethylene is obtained mainly from cracking naphtha, gasoil and condensates with the coproduction of propylene,
C4 olefins and aromatics (pyrolysis gasoline). The cracking of ethane and propane, primarily carried out in the US,
Canada and the Middle East, has the advantage that it only produces ethylene and propylene, making the plants
cheaper to construct and less complicated to operate.
Chart A2-1: Steam Cracking Process
Olefin cracking and inter-
conversion processes are
being developed to boost
light olefins output.
Typically, they can
convert C4-C8 olefins and
light pyrolysis gasoline
into ethylene and
propylene. Newer
catalytic processes are
under development that
provide enhanced control
of the cracking process or
permit catalytic
dehydrogenation of
ethane.
Small quantities of dilute
ethylene can also be
obtained from refinery
streams. In South Africa,
ethylene is produced by
the Fisher-Tropsch
process from gases
obtained by coal
gasification. Efforts have
been made to develop
processes which can
crack crude or residual oil
19 Edelweiss Securities Limited
20. Oil and Gas
but they suffer from high operating costs.
Processes are available that use lower alcohols as feedstocks. Norsk Hydro and UOP have developed a MTO (methanol-
to-olefins) technology that converts methanol to ethylene and propylene. There is considerable interest in using this
technology in China with methanol produced via the gasification of coal.
Working with UOP, Total has developed a technology which takes the heavier olefins from the MTO unit and converts
them into lighter olefins, more specifically into propylene. A pilot plant has been built at Feluy, Belgium, to assess this
olefin cracking process (OCP) in conjunction with the MTO process.
Much research is being conducted into the direct conversion of methane to ethylene. However, the problem with this
technology, called oxidative coupling of methane (OCM), is the low per-pass yield of ethylene and the high yield of
unwanted carbon oxide by-products such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Most attempts to increase product
yield have been through new catalyst formulations. Research is also focusing on making further use of the carbon
oxides by producing methanol or methane.

exporter, has a moratorium on new North Field developments and export sales agreements until 2012.
Outside of Iran and Qatar, a significant proportion of the region’s gas reserves are in associated oil deposits,
and so gas production is not flexible. Much of the gas in the region is also sour, which makes it more difficult
and costly to extract and process. Domestic sales prices, which are subsidized to varying degrees, may need to
rise to cover the additional processing costs and investment required in gas infrastructure.
21 Edelweiss Securities Limited
22. Oil and Gas
Price subsidies, political differences and more lucrative export opportunities have reduced the availability of
gas produced in the Middle East for consumption in the region. As a result, there is limited intra-regional
infrastructure in place for the transportation of natural gas. Individual countries in the Middle East have
developed independent strategies to address their rising demand for natural gas. Saudi Arabia is looking to
substantially increase gas production to meet growing domestic demand and UAE has been actively looking at
unconventional gas reserves. The emirate’s associated gas is increasingly being used for reinjection. Rapid
economic development and high domestic power subsidies have prompted UAE to take alternative measures
to meet future demand. Chart A3-2: Saudi ethane will be more dependent on oil
