China, which accounts for more than half of the ethylene capacity additions within Asia, is likely to lead the global ethylene capacity additions by 2025.
 
At the same time Asia is expected to lead the ethylene capacity additions globally with a capacity of 52.94 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) by 2025, says GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.

Majority of the additions will be from a planned project Shandong Yulong Petrochemical Longkou Ethylene Plant 1, with the capacity of 3.00 mtpa by 2025.”
 
GlobalData identifies India as the second highest country in terms of capacity additions with a capacity of 11.85 mtpa by 2025. Majority of the capacity additions will be from one planned and one announced project, Haldia Petrochemicals Cuddalore Ethylene Plant and Nayara Energy Vadinar Ethylene Plant with a capacity of 1.80 mtpa each by 2025.
 
Iran will be the third highest country in terms of capacity additions with a capacity of 9.99 mtpa by 2025. Majority of the capacity additions will be from a Planned project, Sepehr Makran Chabahar Ethylene Plant, with the capacity of 1.35 mtpa by 2024.
