Market Analytics: Urea - 2025 provides analysis and forecasts to 2050 of supply and demand of the global urea industry.  This analysis identifies the issues shaping the industry as well as provide demand, supply and net trade data for 40 countries/regions.  Urea demand is segmented by key end-use including direct application fertilizer, biofuels, DEF/Adblue, industrial applications and for 'other fertilizers.  The report captures: Consumption: Assesses historic and forecast consumption; forecasts are based on projections of end use and economic activity.  Supply: Includes a list of all producers, their production capacity, location, etc., and discussion of the status of new projects.  Supply, Demand and Trade: Provides historical analysis and forecasts to 2050 of consumption, production, imports/exports, inventory build-up/decline, capacity and capacity utilization. 

Analysis of the profitability of the petrochemical and polymers industry in Asia Pacific, Western Europe and the United States for the fourth quarter of 2024.

This report provides profitability and price projections to 2050 for methanol, MTBE, acetic acid and vinyl acetate monomer (VAM).  The main price setting regions of Asia Pacific (China and South-East Asia), Western Europe and the United States are analysed.

This report presents the methodology and assumptions used to generate the archetype cost of production models, supporting the analysis included in the QBA reports, which are published at the end of each quarter through the year.  Over 600 models are available to download from the NexantECA client portal.   This report is specifically geared to provision of technological and cost data, defining the configuration of all archetype plant cost models.  Although archetype plants are not modelled directly on any specific production asset, the capacity and process consumption factors of plant models are reviewed, to ensure they reflect the spread demonstrated by actual operating units.  The cost of production models presented in this report display the current plant capacity, yield patterns, and utility consumption factors for the models used in the 2024 QBA Program.
