Petrochemicals: Development of Sustainable Models
The petrochemicals industry is at a crossroads as it is experiencing both cyclical and structural shifts. While the industry was already facing cyclical pressures such as overcapacity, pricing pressures, and trade uncertainty before 2020, many post–COVID-19 changes have a structural or disruptive character. Unlike the past downturns that were primarily more cyclical in nature, petrochemical companies are now experiencing significant fundamental shifts in demand, changes in how they operate, and the way they interact with and serve customers on a much larger scale. Because of these profound changes, the industry will likely look very different in the next decade.
