Global Petrochemicals New-Build and Expansion Projects Outlook to 2030

Summary

Emerging economies-particularly China, India, and Iran-are driving the global capacity additions for key petrochemical commodities by 2030. Robust economic growth, escalating demand from end‑use sectors such as packaging and construction, and targeted investments to cut reliance on imports are driving this growth. Furthermore, abundant natural gas reserves, especially in Russia and Iran, provide a competitive edge in producing petrochemical feedstocks
