Quarterly Business Analysis
The Quarterly Business Analysis (QBA) provides a key
insight into production economics for a broad range of
commodity petrochemicals. The analysis presents a
review of costs, prices and margins for typical production
assets, providing a valuable view of regional and value
chain competitiveness.
The quarterly report provides insightful commentary
to illustrate current trends, related to recent market
developments. The accompanying database is updated
monthly.
An annual techno-economic evaluation is conducted
(published as the QBA Supplement) to ensure the
archetype cost models accurately reflect typical regional
production assets.
Profitability Forecast Analysis
The annual Profitability Forecast Analysis provides longterm profitability and price projections to 2030 for the
major price setting regions under three distinct crude oil
scenarios.
Regional reports are published annually, along with the
accompanying database.
