Petrochemists in China are getting a little less excited about their petro chemical futures.
The nation’s largest petro chemicals refinery in Honam, a major producer of petroleum-based products, is set to close in the next two years.
It will shut down on Nov. 30, after a lengthy, three-year process that included the approval of several new projects, the refinery’s website said.
The closure, which will leave Honam with just a handful of petro-chemical plants, could put the country’s petro production at risk of a catastrophic event, including a catastrophic explosion.
The Honam refinery is a key part of China’s petrodollar system.
Its production is used to meet China’s massive domestic demand for petro products, which have become the primary means by which China has maintained a stable and secure trade balance since the 1980s.
China has long relied on its petro industries as a way to meet the countrys growing energy needs.
But the recent slowdown in petro exports, which led to a steep decline in China’s global commodity prices, has raised concerns among some petro industry leaders that the Chinese government could lose a crucial market segment that contributes roughly 20 percent of Chinas petroeconomic output.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has promised to “make petro as important as [coal] and oil” in his plan to boost the economy, but the country faces a long list of challenges to achieve this goal, including high energy costs and an increasingly polluted air.
Petro production in China was valued at $6.5 trillion in 2016.
China’s top export is petroleum, which accounts for roughly 20% of the country s domestic energy production.
But in recent years, China has been reducing its reliance on the country ‘s petrodollars.
China began cutting back on the use of petrodolls in the early 2000s.
But some petrodolites, including the Honam plant, are still active and will likely remain in operation for years to come.
Petrochemical production in the U.S. is a huge business.
China exports more than $50 trillion in petrodoxes and other products every year.
But petro companies are getting increasingly nervous about their futures in the United States, where they will face growing competition.
Petrol and diesel are by far the biggest petroproducts in the world, but petrocosms have been hit hard by rising pollution and a lack of competition.
Chinese companies have been struggling to find alternatives to the diesel-based fuels they depend on for a variety of reasons, including an increased reliance on imported oil and a decrease in their reliance on petro to meet demand.
In some areas, like the U, China is a major exporter, but its petrodopolistic approach to petro fuels has meant it has to rely more on imported fuels, including those from Venezuela and Nigeria.
