"Fifteen Chemical Industry Looks Back"——A New Review of the New Century
The first is to adjust the product structure to meet market demand. During the 10th Five-Year Plan period, we accelerated the development of oil and gas and other energy sources, accelerated the development of petrochemicals with ethylene as the leader, increased the supply of organic raw materials and synthetic materials, and met the market demand. According to statistics, compared to the end of the “Tenth Five-year Plan†and the “ninth five-year planâ€, the proportion of diesel oil and gasoline reached 2.05:1, an increase of 0.34 percentage points in the refined oil production; in the production of caustic soda, the ratio of ion-exchange membrane caustic soda Continuously increased, it has reached 29.16%, an increase of 11.62 percentage points; high-concentration ammonium phosphate fertilizer fertilizer accounted for 84.68% of phosphate fertilizer, an increase of 64.32 percentage points; pesticide product structure to further improve the insecticide The proportion of agents accounted for 45.56%, a decrease of 15.77 percentage points. The proportions of fungicides and herbicides were 11.22% and 28.89%, respectively, which increased by 0.62 and 10.89 percentage points respectively. The proportion of radial tires in tire production was 45.86%, an increase of 19.63 percentage points. These data indicate that during the “10th Five-year Plan†period, oil and chemical companies actively developed new products and technologies to meet the market demand, so that the structure of petrochemical products became more reasonable.
Followed by macro-control, and in the macro-control to make the industry more healthy development. In the latter half of the 10th Five-Year Plan period, the Central Party Committee and the State Council reviewed the situation, highlighted the contradictions and problems that emerged in the course of economic operations, and timely made a series of decisions and deployments to strengthen and improve macro-control. China's oil and chemical industry adhered to the scientific concept of development as a guide, conscientiously implemented the central macro-control policy, suppressed the unstable and unhealthy factors in the economic operation, strengthened the weak links, accelerated the pace of structural adjustment, and continued to maintain growth in the entire industry. Faster, more effective, and stronger and more stable.
The third is that unprecedented achievements have been made in the construction of large chemical industrial parks. The construction of the petroleum and chemical industrial base has been developing healthily during the 10th Five-Year Plan period. At present, there are more than 50 chemical parks built or proposed in the country. The work of the Park has been systematically planned and directed. China's oil and chemical industry delivered a satisfactory answer to the '15' in the course of the park's nationalization and grouping.
The fourth is the concept of 'green chemical' from spontaneous to self-conscious. 'Green chemistry' is a brand-new development idea for the development of the petroleum and chemical industry. Eliminating pollution at the source, rationally utilizing resources and energy, reducing production costs, and achieving sustainable development, building a conservation-friendly environment has become China's oil and chemical industry. The first important point of industrial health development. Under the guidance of 'Green Chemicals', a group of environmentally friendly chemical companies have risen in China. A competent and responsible industry target has been initially formed in the '15'.
The '15' is still five years to meet the challenge. During this period, there are three major factors that affect the development of China's petroleum and chemical industries. One is that the reform of the country’s economic system continues to deepen, and the government has accelerated the transformation of its functions. The China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association announced its establishment. In the reform of government agencies, the management of our entire industry was well-organized, and the entire industry was well-organized in scientific research and production, which perfectly matched the reform of the country's administrative institutions.
The second is that the international environment for the development of the industry has undergone fundamental changes. The accession to the WTO has greatly increased the opening-up of the industry to the outside world, especially in the areas of crude oil and refined oil, and gradually moves from semi-closed competition to a wide range of opening up. Over the past few years, China’s petroleum and chemical industries have gradually honored their WTO commitments, and the pattern of import specialization has been broken. The diversified pattern of domestic market players and investment entities has gradually emerged. Large-scale backbone enterprises such as PetroChina, Sinopec, and CNOOC are “going outâ€. With great efforts, the international competitiveness has rapidly increased.
The third is the rise in energy prices. The 'fifteen' five-year period is just five years after the rise in international oil prices. The persistently high oil prices have put downstream chemical products under greater cost pressures. Some products have digested the cost increase factors by increasing sales prices. More companies have absorbed the adverse effects of rising costs by strengthening management, raising technical standards and reducing consumption. The industry has withstood the test of oil price fluctuations during the '15' period. Has achieved good economic benefits.
As the dead loses, we do not survive in repetition, but rather we advance in change and grow in challenge. Through the '15' China Petroleum and Chemical Industry, we have accumulated strength, enriched our experience, and improved the level of the entire industry. We will meet the next five years, ten years, and even further at a higher level.
