Generally speaking, the year 2004 was the peak in the development of global petrochemical industry. Yet when it came into 2005, gross profit of global petrochemical industry sharply declined compared to the previous year. The year 2004 seems to have reached the peak of the thriving period. As the new equipments are gradually put into production and the output capacity of petrochemical products is massively released, the petrochemical industry will enter a steady development stage by 2007 and 2008.

Challenges and opportunities coexist in China's petrochemical industry. The whole industry is developing towards maturity and it will maintain its pillar position in China's national economy for fairly a long time thanks to the huge realistic and potential market demand for petrochemical products. In a word, China's petrochemical industry still has a bright future.
