Analysts’ Viewpoint on Malaysia Chemical and Petrochemical Market Scenario
“Companies in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market are investigating possible new acquisitions to boost slumping profits post coronavirus period. The market is undergoing a significant change with the growing demand for diesel in construction equipment. Although diesel contributes for high economic growth of Malaysia’s energy mix, it is associated with greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that affect the environment. Hence, chemical and petrochemical companies should diversify production in biofuels, natural gas, and electricity whilst end users gradually shift to cleaner energy solutions in the upcoming years. Apart from balancing production of diesel and biofuels, manufacturers should leverage revenue opportunities in increasing commercial and industrial activities in Malaysia.”
The rich oil & gas reserves of Malaysia are translating into revenue opportunities for market stakeholders. Large reserves of crude oil and condensates are gaining the attention of stakeholders in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market.
Companies are investing in the set-up of new refinery facilities that would produce a range of refined petroleum products. They are harnessing oil & gas reserves and entering into smart partnerships with large petroleum companies to expand their revenue streams.
An increasing number of domestic and foreign companies are unlocking growth opportunities in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market. They are upgrading their manufacturing plant capacities to increase availability of chemical and petrochemical products.

The coronavirus pandemic has adversely affected business activities in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market. It was estimated by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) that the pandemic would cause foreign direct investment (FDI) in Malaysia to shrink by 5% to 15% in 2020, due to the obvious contraction in the manufacturing sector and staggered rise in factory operations.
In order to revive market growth, stakeholders are preparing and embracing opportunities during the pandemic by focusing on positive or limited negative impact industries.
Companies in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market are taking steps to redesign their workflow processes at manufacturing plants to tide over challenges of the pandemic.

Alternatives such as biofuels, natural gas, and electric energy are anticipated to reduce the demand for petroleum fuels such as gasoline in the long term. Moreover, fuels such as CNG are more cost efficient than gasoline, and the former can be bought in Malaysia for almost half the price. Nevertheless, manufacturers are tapping revenue opportunities in national and international transportation activities to boost the sales of gasoline apart from diversifying production in biofuels and natural gas.
While manufacturers are being future-ready by diversifying the production of biofuels, they are currently capitalizing on Malaysia’s high import capacity. Malaysia is presently on the list of China’s most important gasoline importers.
Apart from petroleum products, manufacturers are boosting the production of gasoline and diesel products. Companies are building their product portfolio by rapidly innovating in olefins, polymers, and fertilizers, among others.
Companies in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market are entering into partnerships to build nitrile butadiene latex manufacturing plants. The high demand for nitrile gloves is generating value-grab opportunities for market stakeholders. Thus, manufacturers are tapping into high growth sectors such as personal care, construction, and healthcare to generate additional income sources.
Palm oil holds promising potential as a feasible bio-based feedstock that can be used in the production of 1,3-PDO (1,3-propanediol) and bio-lubricants. Since palm oil is abundantly available in Malaysia, manufacturers can use it for the development of sustainable business in bio-based chemicals. As such, there is a need for relevant government policies to support sustainable business practices.
Since vegetable oils are linked to setbacks such as process complexity and unrecyclable catalysts, manufacturers in the Malaysia chemical and petrochemical market are increasing research in palm oil for the production of bio-lubricants.
Moreover, stakeholders are increasing their focus on sustainable agronomic and manufacturing practices for the cultivation and processing of palm oil.
