The difference in lead time between drilling,processing, fractionation and NGL demand is and
will continue to lead to periods of market length ortightness for ethane and propane.
Ethane is balanced to slightly long in U.S. Additional
length will develop between 2014 and 2016 prior tothe start up of new steam crackers
Propane is long in the U.S. Exports out of U.S. willsolve the problem in the medium term. Longer term
issues remain.Exports of butanes and natural gasoline arerequired to keep those markets balanced

U.S. Cracker StartUps Rebalance and Even Tighten the
Market
Base Case includes 5new steam crackers
starting up between2017 and 2021
Start up of new units
brings market backinto balance in mid-2017
With five units starting
up, ethane market willbe oversubscribedunless there isfeedstock switching

The 2011/2012 winterhad 20% fewer cooling
degrees day than thefive year average
Current propane stocksare 45% higher thanaverage (16.7 MMbbl)
Propane Storage inPADD II is 50% higher
than average
Propane Storage inPADD III is 45% higher
than average
