World Petrochemical Conference & Workshops

A New Global Landscape Emerges:
Challenges and Opportunities for a Sustainable Future

North America has become a preferred investment location for petrochemicals, thanks to shale gas. Trade flows are shifting and emerging countries continue to gain importance as demand moves to high-growth economies. The Mideast is now a dominant producer in the global petrochemical industry, seeking export markets as well as serving regional demand. Europe must move to higher value enterprise, as a producer and supplier of differentiated products.
