CCM Data & Primary Intelligence Description: Urea is an important nitrogenous fertilizer in China. After several years’ fast development, China has become a top urea production country in the world. While at the same time, Chinese urea industry at present is confronted with many challenges. Therefore, adjustment is urgent for China’s urea industry to survive current economic depression, and Chinese government has also carried out several policies to optimize urea industry.
This report focuses on urea market situation in 2008 and H1 in 2009, as well as unveiling the future of Chinese urea industry based on the current trend.
You can figure out a detailed view of Chinese urea industry in the following aspects: - What is the production situation of China’s urea industry in 2008? - Who are the top manufacturers and key players? - How many new projects are under construction at present or under planning in next five years? - What are the present situation and future prospect of China’s small urea plants? - What are the latest policies in China concerned urea industry and their effects? - Is there any technology improvement of urea production in China? - What is the trend of China’s urea industry? What are the key opportunities? Main content:

Executive summary:
China currently has become a leading urea manufacturer with the largest output in the world.
In 2000, China has depended on imported urea heavily to meet domestic demand, and since then, domestic capacity has enlarged rapidly with CAGR of XXX% for more than five years with increasing domestic demand and favorable policies. While by end of 2008, about XXX million~XXXmillion t/a has become surplus for domestic capacity, with the total capacity of XXXt/a and the output of XXX tonnes.

CCM Data & Primary Intelligence In recent years, the concentration ratio of China's urea industry has become increasingly higher. There were XXX urea manufactures in China in 2008, among which about XXXmanufactures' capacity was under XXXt/a, while the top XXX achieved their total capacity and output of XXXt/a and XXX tonnes respectively, accounting for XXX% andXXX% of China’s total.
Water solution complete cycle process is mainly adopted by small urea enterprises, while CO2 stripping process and NH3 stripping, which is more advanced, energy and cost-effective, are used by the large ones and the new plants, but still depends on import heavily. The technology limitation is still a bottleneck for domestic urea development.
Urea export constitutes small proportions of China's total urea output under China's adjustment on export tax. In 2008, the total export was only XXX tonnes, accounting for XXX% of the total output.
In the near future, Chinese urea capacity is estimated to continuously enlarge year on year, with the unbalanced situation between supply and demand to be increasingly intense. Besides, enterprises merger and acquisition will witness growth, with large enterprises to acquire the small ones. It is thus predicted that Chinese urea capacity will concentrate in a few urea enterprise groups, while the small ones will shift to other business or close down.
Character of CCM' Report:
The aim of this report is to provide powerful assistance to the strategy group and the management team in making correct decision as how to penetrate the ever-increasing China market and how to catch the maximum commercial opportunities. The report is formulated independently by CCM’s professional market researchers, based on the first-hand and primary data which are analyzed by scientific methodology, confirmed with both manufacturers/end users/traders and legal authorities, and presented in a logic way.
