S&P Global Platts at EPCA

The International Maritime Organization’s tighter sulfur emissions limits will bring a sea of change for the petrochemicals industry. Will changes in refinery output result in higher naphtha costs? To what extent and for how long will protectionist measures determine global trade flows?

Furthermore, burgeoning environmental consciousness in relation to plastics use is perhaps the most significant development of recent years and one that will remain high on the agenda in the decade ahead.

European brand-owners, governments and petrochemical producers are at the forefront of a global sea change, setting targets and taking voluntary commitments to increase plastics recycling, including banning single-use plastics and overhauling packaging design.

S&P Global Platts will be discussing all these themes at our pre-conference seminar and in our suite where you can come and meet the editors and analysts to continue discussion about the topics above as well as other market developments:
