Webinar: Refining and Petrochemicals Integration

On Thursday, 13th December, Sushant Gupta, Research Director in Refining & Steve Zinger, Senior VP in Chemicals, presented our view on refining and chemical integration. For most refiners and chemical producers, the need to improve margins and remain competitive has never been greater. Refining overcapacity, IMO regulation changes, threat from peak oil demand, rising appetite for petrochemical feedstock and shift in product demand patterns is driving the interest around refining and chemical integration. Such integration is becoming an important growth strategy for many companies. We discuss the global trends in the refining and petrochemical industries, what Refining-to-Petrochemical integration entails and its potential benefits and analyse examples of integration projects underway.
