5 Recent Industry Trends Petrochemicals Ethylene growth rate continues to be 4-5% per year Percentage of ethylene from ethane increasing driven by North America Limited supply of ethane in most of GCC shift to liquid feeds Where will crackers be built? Gas crackers in North America Liquid crackers in Middle East and Asia Brent Crude Oil = $65/bbl US Natural Gas = $2.7/mmbtu US Ethane = $133/ton Cash Cost Mid East Ethane N America LPG N America Ethane W Europe LPG Mid East LPG/Naphth Rest of World China Coal Asia LPG N America Naphtha Asia Naphtha W Europe Naphtha A World of Solutions 5

6 Refined products landscape has changed ~1% growth in refined products Gasoline demand remains flat Increased supply of NGLs Distillate demand growth modest IMO sulfur specs for bunker fuel to be implemented 2020 fuel oil reduction Recent Industry Trends Refined Products Source: IEA A World of Solutions 6

7 Recent Industry Trends Oil Oil prices volatile (~ $45-55/Bbl) Multiple supply sources make oil prices unpredictable: OPEC initiatives to manage supply US tight oil resilient Canadian syncrude production flat Crude volatility +/- 100% Polymer volatility +/- 40% Greater petrochemical price stability drives advantage to monetize crude by conversion to petrochemical products A World of Solutions 7

8 Configuration Analysis: Cracker Strategy The ethylene cracker is the heart of the petrochemical production center Feedstock flexibility is required (ethane VGO) Optimal utilization of C 4 s depends on local economics Control of propylene to ethylene ratio OCT (Olefins Conversion Technology) provides lower cost conversion flexibility to produce propylene / ethylene / butylenes A World of Solutions 8
