Slide 21 of 28
Notes:
- Supply is likely to increase from production.
- Furthermore, projections for Atlantic Basin supply are for strong growth, indicating net
imports to the U.S. could be high.
- In summary, it is going to take strong demand to remove the inventory excess by the end
of next winter.
- Petrochemical demand could remain strong. But it alone cannot remove the excess.
- We will also need some cold weather to boost residential and commercial demand.
- The next slides will look at these factors in more detail.
