Asia’s Olefin Market Structure and Pricing

Asia’s Olefin Market Structure and Pricing

Asia’s olefins market is highly integrated, with most ethylene consumed internally and only limited volumes available for trade.

In this episode of the Chemical Conversations series, Argus' Sarah Rae, VP for Ethylene and Derivatives, speaks with Toong Shien Lee, Head of Olefins Editorial, about how ethylene and propylene markets in Asia are structured and priced — and what sets them apart from other regions.

Tune in for insights on:

  • Asia’s olefins market structure and trade flows

  • Why oversupply is driving buyers toward spot deals

  • How contract prices are settled and formulas applied

  • How PDH economics are shaping Asian propylene prices

This episode is part of the 'Olefins Market Structure & Pricing' podcast series, where Argus experts share insights into the pricing mechanisms and market dynamics shaping ethylene and propylene markets across Asia, Europe and the US. Bringing together perspectives from each region, the Argus team highlight why pricing practices differ across global olefins markets and the market fundamentals that influence commercial pricing decisions.
