II. Summary of gasoline market

Ex-factory prices fluctuated slightly, with Shandong and East China reduced by 20-50 yuan per ton, and gasoline prices in North China, Central China and Northwest China increased by 20-100 yuan per ton. The main factors of the gasoline market this week: 1, international crude oil: a number of institutions reported on the crude oil market, the report is optimistic about the market outlook, tight supply is expected to support oil prices. 2. China's demand: compared with the summer vacation, the gasoline consumption of automotive air conditioners has decreased slightly, but the demand for pre-double-festival stock still exists, which supports the market. However, the relatively high price is less acceptable downstream. Refinery shipping speed is general, more flexible adjustment of quotations to stimulate shipments.

V. Future forecast
From the perspective of international crude oil, the price of WTI crude oil is currently above 90 US dollars per barrel, and the supply side is still positive, but the growth of US commercial crude oil inventory and the higher-than-expected CPI data in August in the United States make the international oil market a positive and negative game. In terms of refinery supply, Yongping Refinery and Fuhai completed weekly maintenance, but Sichuan Petrochemical Refinery maintenance was put on the agenda. Capacity utilization is expected to change little next week. From the point of view of the price adjustment mechanism of refined oil, affected by the rate of change of international crude oil, the new round of price limit is expected to increase by a large margin, with positive news guidance. Approaching the double section, gasoline demand is expected to improve, but it is about to enter the middle and last ten days of the month, some refineries performance pressure increases, do not rule out the possibility of price reduction promotion. Taken together, it is expected that there is room for upward adjustment in China's gasoline market in the short term.
VI. Operating rate
This week (20230908-20230914) the utilization rate of China's main capacity was 83.12%, which was flat and stable compared with last week. On the independent refinery side, some refineries were overhauled, and the operating rate was 64.61% this week, up 1.71% from last week.
Supply and demand & profit
Supply and demand: this week, China's oil product output is 3.4051 million tons, China's main output is 2.4576 million tons, China's independent refineries output 947500 tons, China's independent refinery gasoline sales of 1.0004 million tons, China's commercial inventory of 13.098 million tons.
