1 FLOW SOLUTIONS FOR THE PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY FLOW SOLUTIONS

2 YOUR WORLD-CLASS PETROCHEMICAL PARTNER In today s petrochemical industry the margin between success and failure has never been finer. As plant owners, operators and EPCs you are invariably being asked to improve efficiency whilst operating in an increasingly competitive market, which makes it is even more crucial that you have a flow control partner like Pentair Valves & Controls who can give you the edge. Pentair isn t simply one of the world s leading manufacturers of valves, actuators and controls. We also work closely 24/7 with petrochemical companies around the globe to ensure they continually have the solutions they need to enhance safety, advance productivity and protect the environment. 2 PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY

3 PENTAIR - CREATING CONFIDENCE THROUGH FLOW CONTROL THE PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY MAY STILL BE FAIRLY YOUNG, HAVING ONLY STARTED TO GROW IN THE 1940S, BUT IT IS HUGELY IMPORTANT TO THE GLOBAL ECONOMY AND TO SOCIETY AT LARGE. Petrochemicals - or chemicals derived from petroleum or natural gas - are in short an essential part of the chemical industry. An industry that is changing at a faster rate than ever before. Prior to 1980 The United States, Western Europe and Japan accounted for over 80% of world primary petrochemical production, not only to supply their own domestic demand but also to export to other global markets. Since then however, there has been a large-scale construction of petrochemical facilities in countries such as China, Saudi Arabia and Canada, which possess vast reserves of crude oil and natural gas. As a consequence, the three principle regions for petrochemicals now account for less than 40% of world primary petrochemicals production. There are also the added concerns of volatile energy prices, changes in feedstock availability and environmental pressures. Which means petrochemical plant operators are having to work even harder today to stay competitive today. PENTAIR CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE As OEMs face growing demands to improve the performance of their plants, success can hinge on whether you have a dynamic partner with the essential global resources, industry expertise and technical knowledge - a partner like Pentair Valves & Controls. THE INDUSTRY PARTNER OF CHOICE With a customer base that includes many of the largest petrochemical organizations operating around the world today, Pentair has a proven track record of developing and applying valves, actuators and control solutions specifically for the petrochemical industry. We understand the complex issues you face every day. Furthermore, we know what it takes to deliver solutions that enhance safety, improve performance, reduce emissions and advance efficiency throughout the petrochemical production process.
