The CDU capacity utilization rates of state-owned refineries are projected to rise in the week to Oct. 3 with Tianjin Petrochem yet to reach full capacity, according to Mysteel OilChem.
- The rates of independent refineries in Shandong Province are likely to jump as the Yulong Refinery ramps up after commissioning.
- CDU rates at domestic refineries averaged 70.64% last week, up 0.35 percentage points from the previous week.
