North American developments and global feedstock diversification are transforming the petrochemical feedstock landscape. Whilst forecasts for ethylene demand growth are positive, changing trade flows and evolving technology will shift the way in which key regions manufacture petrochemicals. In light of these developments, it's crucial to have a sound grasp of the olefins feedstock market to stay competitive in petrochemicals.
