東北亞市場燒堿價格創28個月新低

中國石化新聞網訊 據安迅思新加坡12月5日消息，東北亞市場燒堿價格已經跌至28個月低點，而且價格或仍將承受向下的壓力，因為生產商面臨不斷增加的庫存壓力，同時出口主要的印度市場仍受到認證要求的阻礙。
數據顯示，截至11月30日當周，東北亞市場燒堿平均價格較前一周下跌10美元/干噸，降至302.5美元/干噸（FOB東北亞），創下自2016年7月29日以來的最低水平。
數據顯示，自10月12日以來，東北亞市場燒堿現貨價格已連續8周處于總體下行趨勢。
自今年4月份以來，印度當局已開始要求進口的燒堿必須獲得印度標準局(BIS)的認證，不過這一要求直到10月份才開始實際執行。
這迫使東北亞燒堿生產商，主要來自日本，暫停了對印度的出口。
印度是燒堿的主要進口國，官方數據顯示，在截至2018年3月的上財年，印度進口了411033噸燒堿。

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. ?
