5.12. Key recent trends on the global benzene market
Another trend is connected with the fact that benzene is a petrochemical used as a fuel
additive. Because of its high volatility, benzene acts as a good octane booster, which maintains
the energy content of gasoline and is widely used in gasoline blends. In recent years, however,
there has been a decrease in the demand for fossil fuels, especially in the developed countries.
This was due to the development of new, more fuel-efficient vehicles, as well as the increased
consumption of bio-based fuels such as ethanol. In addition, many of the larger oil companies
switch their focus on chemicals, since they are now seen as a major driver of demand growth
for use of crude oil, especially in mature regions such as Western Europe.
