OIL

CDU capacity utilisation rates at China’s state-owned refineries are expected to fall in the week to Oct. 17 according to OilChem, as Fujian Petrochem and Guangxi Petrochem have overhaul plans.

  • Among independent refineries in China’s Shandong province, CDU capacity utilisation rates are estimated to rise with the ramp up of Haiyou Petrochem.
  • CDU capacity utilisation rates at domestic refineries in China averaged 70.33% last week, up 0.09 percentage points on the previous seven-day period.
  • China’s gasoline demand is projected to stay flat post the travel peak during the National Day holiday, with certain support from the expect rise in the guiding retail price in the next round of government’s price adjustment.
  • Gasoil demand is likely to be resilient in the traditional seasonal high.
