V. Future forecast
The impact of geopolitical events on international crude oil has weakened, and demand may have improved. The atmosphere of OPEC production reduction still exists, and oil prices are expected to rise next week. Gasoline demand is expected to improve as the Spring Festival approaches. Near the end of the year, from the point of view of demand, there is still procurement demand at some terminals, coupled with the increase in the number of people returning home during the Spring Festival, and the increase in traffic flow. however, at present, the low temperature, rain and snow weather in most parts of China is increasing, and the obstacles to logistics and transportation are increasing, and market trading is expected to turn weak next week. From the supply side, the independent refinery Shenchi Chemical will start overhauling next week, coupled with the refinery holidays one after another, the operating rate of Chinese refineries is expected to decline next week. In addition, at present, the performance pressure of the refinery has obviously weakened, and the willingness to raise the price is OK. Overall, it is expected that China's gasoline market will stabilize in the short term.
VI. Operating rate
This week (20240126-20240201) approaching the Spring Festival, the operating rate of China's independent refineries decreased, falling 1.71% to 65.93%, while the operating rate of the main units increased by 0.14% to 76.16%.
