DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Petrochemical Industry in the United States - Forecast and Analysis 2021" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The petrochemical industry in the US has been facing pressure from multiple fronts as the COVID-19 pandemic, and low energy prices have driven down demand.

Nevertheless, the third quarter of 2021 witnessed better market performance as the US maintained its leading position in global petrochemical capacity and welcomed a better economic scenario. With somewhat of a recovery in demand and stable output, the US petrochemical industry is looking at better numbers in the second half of 2021. However, they are still short of pre-pandemic performance.

Having an extensive and integrated petrochemical industry, the US has a vast resource base, and the US petrochemical sector has a high level of competitiveness on the global stage. The US is also home to many industry leaders like Dow, CPChem, Eastman Chemical, Exxon, etc.

US petrochemical companies have improved light cracking capabilities in their plants and have also increased production from feedstocks. Strong capacity growth post-COVID era has boosted the potential of the industry for low operating rates.
