A mountain of data and alternative opinions makes short-term petrochemicals market analysis difficult. But so many people need to analyse the past and predict the future in order to set sales, profit and production targets in an ever-more complex and volatile economic environment.
The good news is that ICIS is providing a “how to” guide to market assessments through its Introduction to Petrochemicals Part 2 training course. Presented by John Richardson, ICIS Consultant Asia who has 26 years of experience in analysing petrochemicals markets, largely in polyolefins, the course covers topics such as the role of spreads, margins, trade flows and supply and demand data in building market analysis.
We also explain the economics of the steam cracker business – how cost and profit models are built, accompanied by an analysis of the cost positions of producers in different regions. These topics are placed in the context of what’s happening right now in global polyolefins markets with our views on pricing, trade flows and supply and demand are the next 18 months, backed up by a wealth of ICIS data and we provide exercises to test your analytics skills along with plenty of time for discussions and sharing of the challenges.
Petrochemicals is a complex market to unravel. Industry dynamics change rapidly driven by factors such as the global economy, sustainability, changing trade flows, and geopolitical tensions. This course will examine the key trends and headlines in today’s market and its impact on cost, margin, and profitability.
