【Carburant】Current Price Trend 

1. The price of carburant is influenced by the overall market situation.

Starting from January 2021, the price of carburant made from petroleum coke has been steadily rising. Domestic petrochemical companies have delayed the start-up time of coking equipment, and the start-up rate has decreased by 3-5% compared to the previous years. In addition, since March, the low-sulfur delayed coking units in Northeast China have successively entered the maintenance period. According to current information, the supply of petroleum coke will continue to decrease, thereby driving up the price of the carburant. 

2. The price of carburant is also affected by downstream customer demand.

Due to the pandemic and transportation issues, there may be a burst of stockpiling in the end-market of electrolytic aluminum during holiday periods, further driving up the demand for petroleum coke, and correspondingly, the price of carburant will continue to rise. In addition, the Chinese economy will continue to grow steadily, and the AI boom will gradually emerge, which will drive the development of high-end manufacturing. Infrastructure fields such as steel and casting are also moving towards high-end green casting, which places higher demands on the quantity and quality of carburant.

3. Global economic inflation and rising prices have also led to a continuous rise in the price of carburant.

In addition, the price of carburant is also related to specific product demand. The raw materials in the carburant industry are fixed, so different product demands when purchasing carburant can lead to significant price differences, which are related to the production process of the product. Future trends and business opportunities in the carburant market, contact us to learn more.
