Is the world nearing an economic blowout?
8Some pessimists can claim that to be so.
8In the U.S. stock market, the level of market capitalization and margin debt (margin transaction obligations) vs. GDP have reached the levels from before the 2000 IT bubble collapse and the 2008 Lehman shock.
8The cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings ratio is 30 times, the same level it was right before the Great Depression of the 1930s.
8Corporate debt is now over $9 trillion and its ratio to GDP exceeds that from right before the Lehman shock.
8Outside the US too, the picture is somewhat grim

8Europe is experimenting a rather interesting coal to gas switch. For the first time in years, gas is a cheaper option than coal for base load stations, with a fuel-switch happening when comparing 55% efficient gas-fired plants with 40% efficient coal-fired units.
8On the LNG front now, a raft of new LNG projects, juxtaposed against a cooling off of the global economy, will see low LNG prices going up to 2020 and beyond. This may be bad news for gas projects in the KG Basin, which will hit first gas around that time, but ruling prices are still expected to be higher than their hurdle rates
8The other bit that is going to keep LNG prices down is that the furious pace at which Chinese LNG is growing will slow down on higher domestic gas production and larger pipeline imports

There is always a very high dependency of the central government on GAIL -- much more than any other public sector oil & gas company -- to carry out its social and political objectives.
8Who else will build pipelines in areas where there is little demand for gas or set up a petrochemical unit -- such as the Assam Gas Cracker -- which is intrinsically unviable?
8In this context, the GAIL chairman has more leverage with the powers that be in Shastri Bhavan and South Block than any other chairman.
8Overall, therefore, will it then be the current government or the new government which will provide an extension to GAIL chairman BC Tripathi, who will complete 10 years of office this year and yet have some time left over before he retires?

The petrochemical industry is going to undergo some dramatic changes in the years ahead.
8One change that is predicted is the use of renewable power to make petrochemical through the electrolysis route.
8But more dramatically, it is the recycling of petrochemicals that will change contours of the industry. The projection is that up to 60% of petrochemicals will come from recycled products by 2050.
8Policy parameters are likely to change too, as the government comes out openly in support of recycling.
8There is now a prediction that plastics reuse and recycling could drive the majority of value creation in petrochemicals during the coming decade.
