Profitability prospects (or attractiveness) for businesses in petroleum sector are judged on four criteria,
1. 2. 3. 4. Market Growth Rate Market Quality Industry Feedstock Situation Environmental (Regulatory) aspects

1.

Market Growth Rate


Rating system with midpoint as the average growth rate of the industry Growth rate is given rating from one star to five star

2. Market Quality To get a rating for market quality, following questions need to be answered,
Does the sector have a record of high and stable profitability? Can margins be maintained when manufacturing capacity exceeds demand? Is the product resistant to commodity pricing behaviour? Is the technology of production freely available or is it restricted to those who developed it? Do relatively few producers supply the market? Is the market free from domination by a small group of powerful customers?

2. Market Quality Questions continued


In the case of a new product, is the market destined to remain small enough not to attract too many producers? Is the product one where the customer has to change his formulation or even his machinery if he changes supplier? Is the product free from the risk of substitution by an alternative synthetic or natural product?
If a business scores yes on most or all of the above questions, then it will get a four or five rating for Market Quality.

3. Industry Feedstock Situation This aspect considers the availability and ease in getting the raw material for production. 4. Environmental (Regulatory) Aspects

Business sector prospects can be affected by restrictions on manufacture, transportation and marketing of a product.

A petroleum company is judged as strong, average or weak in terms of Market Position, in relation to significant competitors. Factors considered for rating Market Position
