In 2017, in accordance with the strategic deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, the petrochemical and chemical industry insisted on deepening supply-side structural reforms, vigorously promoting innovation-driven, transformation and upgrading, and the industry economy achieved excellent results, especially the economic growth rate, which was the fastest growth in the past six years.

1.

(1) Overall product production is stable

In 2017, the overall production of the petrochemical and chemical industry remained stable.

(2) Accelerating economic benefit growth

In 2017, there were 28,005 enterprises above designated size in the petrochemical and chemical industry, and the industrial added value increased by 3.

(3) Further expansion of foreign trade

In 2017, the total import and export trade of the petrochemical and chemical industry was 583.

(4) Continuous optimization of structural adjustment

The development of high-end and special chemical products such as synthetic resins, synthetic fibers, and electronic chemicals has accelerated.

2.

In 2017, the economic operation of the petrochemical and chemical industry achieved rapid development, and the development of the entire industry was bright.

(1) Industry investment continues to be weak

In 2017, the petrochemical and chemical industry completed a fixed asset investment of 2.

(2) Industry safety accidents frequently occur

At present, there are nearly 300,000 hazardous chemical production and operation units across the country, of which more than 80% are small chemicals with relatively poor safety guarantee capabilities, and safety accidents occur from time to time.

(3) Increased import pressure on petrochemical market

In 2017, domestic imports of petrochemical products, such as synthetic materials and organic chemical materials, continued to grow, putting greater pressure on the domestic market.

3.

(1) Vigorously promote the relocation and transformation of hazardous chemical production enterprises

In 2018, we will conscientiously implement the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Relocation and Reconstruction of Hazardous Chemicals Production Enterprises in Urban and Population-Dense Areas" (Guobanfa [2017] No.

(2) Speed ​​up the implementation of new chemical materials to make up for shortcomings

Focusing on key areas such as automobiles, new-generation information technology, aerospace, rail transit, energy conservation and environmental protection, and health, the "Implementation Plan for New Chemical Materials to Make Up for Shortcomings" was compiled and implemented.

(3) Carry out intelligent transformation of chemical parks

Establish an evaluation index system for chemical parks, carry out a thorough investigation of chemical parks across the country, create a "map" of chemical parks, and carry out comprehensive evaluation of chemical parks.

(4) Promote the deep integration of the two industrializations in the chemical industry

Deeply carry out pilot demonstrations of smart manufacturing and industrial Internet, and accelerate the introduction of relevant standards and specifications.

(5) Improve service capabilities and guide the petrochemical industry to expand investment

Strengthen the integration of fiscal, taxation, finance, trade and other policies with industrial policies, implement policies for bank-enterprise docking and industry integration, and increase financing support for key enterprises and key projects.
Increase support for the relocation and transformation of hazardous chemical production enterprises, technological transformation and upgrading of the petrochemical industry, smart manufacturing pilots, smart chemical parks, high-end product development, green and safe production, and public service platform construction.

(6) Strengthen the "One Belt One Road" initiative to improve the industry's "going global" level

Actively promote international capacity cooperation in key industries such as tires, fertilizers, and chlor-alkali with countries along the “Belt and Road”.
Propose a list of projects in accordance with the country, and organize companies to conduct targeted docking with the industries of the other country.
Encourage companies to adopt different models to unite and "go global.
" Improve fiscal and taxation support policies, establish a coordination mechanism between petrochemical and chemical companies, financial institutions and insurance institutions, and address the financing needs of companies for overseas development.
