Petrochemicals remain a growth area, which is why refiners are pivoting from fuels toward chemicals feedstock, but it is not enough to offset falling road fuel use.

It caps the crude price ceiling, shifts trade flows, and moves growth toward petrochemicals, gas and renewables rather than road fuels. Suppliers and marketers who still frame China as an endless growth story are selling to a market that no longer exists.\",\n \"The commercial move is to reposition around where the demand is going: chemicals, LNG, grid and efficiency, not gasoline.
