Conclusions
Outlook for Asia Benzene and Styrene
Benzene supply expansion continues to be constrained by feedstock availability
and is increasingly becoming a co-product of paraxylene
International trade will become increasingly critical in balancing the global
benzene market
Limited slack in the global styrene system means that margins remain strong in
Asia until the new world-scale capacities shift the delicate balance of recent years
Styrene operating rates post-2020 will dip globally, but in different degrees
between regions
