中国石化新闻网讯 据安迅思新加坡12月5日消息,东北亚市场烧碱价格已经跌至28个月低点,而且价格或仍将承受向下的压力,因为生产商面临不断增加的库存压力,同时出口主要的印度市场仍受到认证要求的阻碍。
数据显示,截至11月30日当周,东北亚市场烧碱平均价格较前一周下跌10美元/干吨,降至302.5美元/干吨(FOB东北亚),创下自2016年7月29日以来的最低水平。
数据显示,自10月12日以来,东北亚市场烧碱现货价格已连续8周处于总体下行趋势。
自今年4月份以来,印度当局已开始要求进口的烧碱必须获得印度标准局(BIS)的认证,不过这一要求直到10月份才开始实际执行。
这迫使东北亚烧碱生产商,主要来自日本,暂停了对印度的出口。
印度是烧碱的主要进口国,官方数据显示,在截至2018年3月的上财年,印度进口了411033吨烧碱。

NE Asia caustic soda hits 28-month low on strong selling pressure Northeast Asia’s liquid caustic soda have hit a 28-month low and will likely remain under pressure as producers face mounting inventory, while shipments to the key India market are still hampered by certification requirements. For the week ended 30 November, average caustic soda prices declined $10/dry metric tonne (dmt) from the previous week to $302.50/dmt FOB (free on board) NE (northeast) Asia, the lowest since 29 July 2016, according to the data. Spot prices have been on a general downtrend for eight weeks since 12 October, the data showed. Indian authorities have started requiring caustic soda imports to have certification from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) since April, although this was not enforced until October. This prompted northeast Asian producers, mainly from Japan, to put contract volumes bound for the south Asian country on hold. India is a major importer of caustic soda, importing 411,033 liquid tonnes of the material in the financial year ending March 2018, according to official data.
