6.6. Key recent trends on the benzene market in Asia
…
Another trend is connected with the fact that benzene is a petrochemical used as a fuel
additive. Because of its high volatility, benzene acts as a good octane booster, which
maintains the energy content of gasoline and is widely used in gasoline blends. In recent
years, however, there has been a decrease in the demand for fossil fuels, especially in the
developed countries. This was due to the development of new, more fuel-efficient vehicles,
as well as the increased consumption of bio-based fuels such as ethanol. In addition, many
of the larger oil companies switch their focus on chemicals, since they are now seen as a
major driver of demand growth for use of crude oil, especially in mature regions such as
Western Europe.
…

6.7. Competitive landscape of the market
…
The main players on the market are large multinational companies, which have the resources
to compete for large contracts. However, most of them are quite diversified in terms of
product and geographical operations and therefore less reliant on this particular market alone.
The benzene market is characterized by relatively low product differentiation, although
products are less commoditized than most base chemicals. The barriers to market entry
include capital requirements for establishing manufacturing facilities, and increasingly
stringent regulation, which all serve to increase rivalry…
