Shortage of raw materials, strong and bullish price of petcoke carburant

According to the survey, the low sulfur calcined petcoke carburant price in Liaoning Province is firm at present. Affected by the raw material side, the market will advance further.

Taking the low proportion petcoke carburant with C ≥ 98.5%, S ≤ 0.5% and particle size of 1-5mm as an example, the mainstream ex-factory tax-inclusive quotations in Liaoning Province are concentrated between 7200-7300 yuan/ton, up from the beginning of last month; Tianjin has no offer at present.

At present, although the upstream calcined coke market is generally stable, there are also some phenomena of rising prices of coke plants. The prices of low-sulfur coke such as Jinxi Petrochemical, Huludao Waiyi, Huludao Shunlong, Huludao Hongyuan and Binzhou Zhonghai Graphite have been adjusted, and the production costs of carburant enterprises are again under pressure. At the same time, the insufficient inventory of refineries and the insufficient supply of carburant raw materials have driven the market price to continue to strengthen. The attitude of downstream demand side is still wait-and-see. Because the petcoke carburant market has fluctuated at high level for a long time, affected by the purchase cost, in addition to maintaining long-term orders to meet the rigid demand, some iron and steel enterprises have completed the transfer of the purchase focus, using substitutes to achieve the purpose of reducing costs and improving efficiency.

On the whole, the main driving factor of the petcoke carburant market is still the change of the raw material end. At present, the prices of petcoke and calcined coke are stable and strong, which makes it difficult for the downstream carburant market to have a callback space. In the short term, it may continue to be strong and there is no lack of upside possibility.

In brief, the main driving factor of petcoke carburant market is still the change of the raw material end. At present, the prices of petroleum coke and calcined coke are stable and firm, which makes it difficult for the downstream carburant market to have a callback space.
