5 World Oil Demand To Rise By 1.3 MM b/d In 2016 And 2017 Led By Non-OECD Countries Changes in oil (liquids) demand by region (volume change from previous year in million barrels per day) 0.50 China Global oil demand growth (MMb/d) North America Middle East 0.00 (0.50) OECD (0.50) (0.50) India 0.00 Non-OECD Total World (0.50) Notes: Mexico is included in Latin America. Data in table may not add up due to rounding. 5

6 Non-OPEC Crude Output To Fall In Many Areas As Lack Of Investment Takes Hold; G5 Drives OPEC Higher Annual change in crude oil production for selected non-opec countries, Million barrels per day Annual change in crude oil production for OPEC countries, Million barrels per day Notes: Estimates for Saudi Arabia and Kuwait include 50% of Neutral Zone production. 6

14 Crude Prices Recover As Oil Supply/Demand Balances Tighten; Natural Gas Pricing Remains Low And Stable Global Crude Oil vs. USGC Natural Gas $/ MMBtu, Natural Gas Crude Oil vs. Natural Gas $43/bbl Natural Gas WTI Brent $/Barrel, Crude Demand growth of MMb/d from underpins oil market outlook. Oil prices remain low enough to force US crude production lower. OPEC production remains high and surplus capacity available from OPEC falls to extremely low levels. Driven by power and LNG exports, North American gas demand reaches 105 Bcf/d by N. American gas supply is plentiful and low cost. Rapid demand growth leads to higher natural gas prices, but remain near $4 per MMBtu 14

15 Agenda Chemical Value-Chain & The Impact Of Energy Ethylene Outlook for Energy & Feedstocks Ethylene & Propylene Outlook Strategic Implications Propylene

16 Ethylene Propylene PG Where To Invest The Next Wave Beyond 2020?

17 Energy Assumptions Will Influence Location & Technology For New Chemical Investment Decisions Crude Oil vs Natural Gas & NGLs Constant 2014$ Per MMBtu Brent Crude Henry Hub Gas USGC Ethane USGC Propane NEA Naphtha China Coal Notes: China Coal is on a 6000kcal/kg basis, Qinhuangdao FOB 2016 IHS USGC chemical feedstocks hold significant advantage attracting additional investment beyond current wave. LPG export terminal capacity is growing to clear projected surpluses. Ethane and propane exports at historical highs for both pipe and water borne. Ethane demand surge reduces rejection and creates spread over fuel value. Prices capped by propane cracking and ethylene derivative export economics. Propane prices rise with crude; maintain higher discount relative to crude due to supply length

18 Non-conventional Technology Providing Options For Future Investments In Olefins Production Conventional Light Olefins Cash Cost Non-Conventional Light Olefins Cash Cost US Ethane US PDH NEA PDH NEA Naphtha WEP Naphtha US GTP US GTO NEA CTO NEA MTO PDH = Propane Dehydro; GTP = Gas to Propylene; GTO = Gas to Olefins; CTO = Coal to Olefins; MTO = Methanol to Olefins

19 Ethylene Market Key Issues Ethane Ethane Supply: additional 10 million metric tons of lowcost ethane to ethylene beyond Ethane prices: higher prices versus fuel value reflect higher demand and extraction of higher cost supply. Ethylene derivative exports provide a price ceiling. Ethylene New Ethylene Capacity: delayed start up timing of all first wave US ethylene units. Pushed out and/or removed some additions in China (MTO/CTO) Build-cycle Disruption: under investing in new capacity during period, supporting margin up-cycle. Effective Global Operating Rates: expected to be high over the next 5 years assuming steady economic growth, current new-build profile, unplanned outages. Naphtha crackers: required to balance demand; increasing cash cost combined with need for more naphtha cracking will push ethylene prices higher. 19

20 Ethylene Capacity Additions on Par with Demand Growth Capacity does not equal supply; effective operating rates are critical Global Ethylene Capacity Additions vs. Demand Million Metric Tons North America Middle East Others West Europe Asia Annual Demand Increase 2016 IHS 20

21 Global & Regional Ethylene Nameplate Operating Rates 95 Operating Rates Reach 2015 Peak Highest Since Early 2000 s Effective operating rates are even higher are they sustainable? Percent Global Op Rate NEA Op Rate Global Op Rate (Steam Cracker) WEP Op Rate 2016 IHS 21

22 Ethylene Prices Move Higher On Tighter Balance & Higher Costs US Discount To Global Market Driven By Need For Derivative Exports Regional Ethylene Price Forecast 2,000 Dollars Per Metric Ton 1,500 1, US Average Acquisition Price WEP Contract Price SEA CFR Spot Price

23 Naphtha Cracking Margin Recovery Sustained While Ethane Cracking Margins Remain Steady As Ethane Prices Rise Global Monthly Feedstock Cash Regional Ethylene Cash Margins By Feedstock Cents Per Pound , Dollars Per Metric Ton U.S. Ethane WEP Naphtha SEA Naphtha IHS 23

24 Ethylene Net Equivalent Trade Growth continues in Advantaged Feedstock Regions 5,089 5,726 North America 12,458 West Europe ,759 18,266 19,686 14,041-8,323 Northeast Asia -10,550-14, Middle East Southeast Asia South America ,103-2,844-3,060-3,828 Others* -7,356-9,521-10,604 *Others: Africa, Indian Sub., CIS & Baltic, Central Europe 24

25 Propylene Market Key Issues Propylene Requires On-Purpose Investment: margins for incremental supply will have to support new investments On-Purpose Technology Will Vary: technology dependent on regional feedstock advantage - PDH in U.S., Middle East, and Asia along with coal to olefins in China are likely paths. Chinese PDH units added will be based on propane imports that compete into fuels market. MTP = high cost. Build phase is delayed: investment in North American on-purpose propylene production delayed as questions over energy and the economy persist; GTP under study. Propylene Regional imbalance causes price volatility: overcapacity in propylene will cause major price shifts regionally but balance out over time. US monomer balance is long, derivatives are tighter. Low prices stimulate demand: propylene demand growth is seeing strength due to ample low cost supplies.

26 Global Propylene New Supply Requires On-Purpose Capacity Transition To On-purpose (Vs Co-product) Production In The Current Decade World: PG/CG Propylene Production By Feedstock Million Metric Tons Co-Product On Purpose Stm. Crackers FCC Splitters Dehydro 2020 Metathesis Olefin Cracking Methanol to Olefins Methanol to Propylene Coal to Olefins Coal to Propylene 2016 IHS 26

27 Annual Propylene Propylene Capacity Capacity Additions Additions By Region Versus Demand Growth 10.0 Propylene Capacity Additions In China Overwhelm Demand Growth In The Near Term Contributing To Price Declines Million Metric Tons North America Middle East China West Europe Others Annual Demand Increase 2016 IHS 27

28 Propylene Prices Rebound As Markets Balance And On-Purpose Cash Cost Rise US Transitions To Low Priced Region Long Term PG Propylene Price Forecast By Region 2,000 Dollars Per Metric Ton 1,500 1, NAM Net Trans. Contract Price WEP Disc. Contract Price SEA CFR Spot Price 2016 IHS

29 Long Propylene Markets Results In Poor On-purpose Returns Raising Questions Regarding Near Term Operating Rates Comparison Of On-purpose Propylene Cash Margins 900 $US Per Metric Ton NAM PDH Margins NEA PDH Margins NEA CTP Margins NEA MTP Margins

30 Propylene Equivalent Trade Reduction In China Net Imports Result In Global Rebalancing 1,950 1, North America West Europe 1, ,813 3,681 2,366 Northeast Asia ,262-3,062 Middle East Southeast Asia 2011 South America Others* ,432-2,413-4,008 *Others: Africa, Indian Sub., CIS & Baltic, Central Europe

31 Strategic Implications Energy: the world is awash in BTUs of all forms: Oil, Gas and Coal; petroleum balance is improving; enough ethane in North America to support another 10 MM tons of ethylene. Chemicals: uncertainties in energy and economy cause build cycle to pause; M&A continues to accelerate; margins recovery over 5-year outlook. Ethylene: surge in NAM supply will not overwhelm global balance; naphtha cracking needed to close the balance ; effective utilization is a key metric to watch. Propylene: era of on-purpose production creates new market dynamics; private ownership in China could result in different (more western-like) behavior?
