2 PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY MAJOR CHALLENGES Coal in China China is using MTO/MTP technology to manufacture olefins from its low-value coal reserves The European position Petrochemical production is under impact of ethane from US shale gas and fluctuation in oil price. Middle East Future LNG export competition with USA and geopolitical issues and area challenges. North America; Shale gas Investment in new ethane crackers in North America will lead to exports of competitive ethylene derivatives 2

22 Percent IRAN S SHARE OF THE WORLD AND MID EAST ETHYLENE CAPACITY World Middle East The international trade of ethylene is quite limited due to expenses associated with transportation. As a result, most ethylene that crosses international borders is in the form of derivative chemicals, such as polyethylene, ethylene glycol, and EDC.

25 Percent IRAN S SHARE OF THE WORLD AND MID EAST PROPYLENE CAPACITY World Middle East International trade of propylene monomer is quite limited because of the costs of transporting highly pressurized or refrigerated liquids. Most of the propylene trade crossing international borders is in the form of derivative chemicals, such as polypropylene and acrylonytrile.

35 EXPANSION OF PANAMA CANAL 35

36 THE PANAMA CANAL Rising U.S. shale-gas output is reshaping global energy markets. The Panama Canal enlargement is central to the change because the route cuts voyages by more than 7,500 nautical miles (8,500 miles) to Asia, where fuel demand is growing fastest. The waterway, handling 5 percent of world trade and shipping 333 million metric tons in the year to Sept. 30, is used by as many as 14,000 ships a year, connecting 160 countries and 1,700 ports, according to its website. 36

37 THE PANAMA CANAL 37 37

38 EXPANSION OF PANAMA CANAL The Panama Canal is definitely good news for east Asia, and it s where the highest global prices for LNG are, Svenning said. His company is putting together deals to build vessels to ship the fuel that are based on using the canal for long-term charters, he said. 38

46 CONCLUSION Petrochemical demand will remain tied to GDP growth Geopolitical factors influence investments Average global olefins feedstock slate will become heavier Switching to lighter feedstock will increase the demand for stand-alone plants to produce propylene 46

47 CONCLUSION CONT D Petrochemical industry plays a great role in GDP growth rate Shortage of basic petrochemicals will be resolved It will produce a variety of products currently not available in Iran New technologies will be used in the industry Huge opportunity for more down-stream industries contribution to GDP Appropriate areas for cooperation with foreign investors in Up-stream and Down-stream of petrochemical industry 47
