  16. Acceleration In Global Capacity Build-up

  17. Middle East & Asia Dominate Current Wave Of New Capacity • Middle East adding major portion of new additions, driven by incentives for industrial development • Asia additions driven by higher self-sufficiency and industrial development • India, South America, Africa, all adding capacity driven by industrial development • Limited to no new capacity in North America and Europe Yanpet Ethylene – Saudi Arabia

  19. The Immediate Threat... Nine Million Tons By Mid-2009 Capacity Add., MMT 1H '09 Q4 '08 Q3 '08 1H '08

  20. Middle East Takes Market Share

  21. Capacity Build-up Impact on the U.S. Olefins Industry

  22. United States Ethylene Net Equivalent Trade

  23. United States Ethylene Demand Forecast

  24. United States Ethylene Feedstock Consumption

  25. U.S. Steam Crackers Shift Lighter Is there room to shift even lighter?

  26. Feedstock Impact on U.S. Steam Cracker Propylene Production

  27. Light Olefins Margin Trough Expected By 2010

  28. Ethylene Oversupply To Follow Period Of Balanced Conditions

  29. How Bad Could It Get 2008-2010? Impact Of Current Economic Crisis Effective Global Chemicals & Plastics Operating Surplus 18% (90% Rule) Close about 35 Million MT more to return to base case 16% Base CMAI (4% AAGR) 14% 12% 50% Crisis (2% AAGR) 10% 25% Crisis (3% AAGR) 25 - 75 - 25 Crisis (2.3% AAGR) 8% 6% 4% 2% 0% 85 88 91 94 97 00 03 06 09 12 15

  30. U.S. Ethylene Supply & Demand

  31. The Olefins Business Cycle Continues… U.S. Integrated Olefins/PolyOlefins Cash Margins Dollars Per Metric Ton 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15

  32. Conclusions • Volatile energy markets continue to challenge producer economics • Oversupply due to acceleration in new olefins capacity and slowing demand growth • Olefins markets transitioning from peak to trough cycle conditions…trough margins most severe for naphtha crackers • NGL consumption in US market depends on Gas-to-Crude ratio and investment in light feed capability

  33. Will It Come? • Forecast assumes capacity build-up will result in lower U.S. steam cracker operating rates • Current energy dynamics have supported max light feed cracking…we’ve seen the peak • Increased NGL consumption by U.S. steam crackers is not expected to come without investment in light feed capability • Empty Field of Dreams
