Analyzing the Petrochemical Industry in the United States 2016
The US Petrochemicals Industry has undergone lifecycle path phases from initial growth augmentation to slowing down in marginal returns and thereafter facing possible downturns aided by many factors of competitive or resource constraints. Some of these constraints are visibly manifested in the manner of high feedstock prices which are forcing many of U.S. giants to reassess their bottom line priorities in comparison to global players and resulting in taking a back foot on overall market activity interest.
High feedstock prices have forced producers to reconsider their investment scenario settings and tweaking is evident in the realigned strategic goal movement of the industry as a whole. The lack of investment focus is also resulting in labor issues for rates which are directly impacting production. The change of stance to short term investment reaping instead of long term capital building efforts are being exercised through organizational efficiencies and asset management systems.
The future of the US petrochemical industry appears to be uncertain at present with the imbalance create in the market by the high feedstock process. The abundance of feedstock has diminished over the years and this has hit producers further with increasing costs.
