The price of locally refined Naphtha continued to rise last week. Supported by the need for terminal restructuring, the refinery actively pushed up, and the deal was good.

Last week, the international crude oil market fluctuated and rose. Affected by the decline in US crude oil inventories and the increase in Chinese crude oil imports, oil prices remain relatively rigid, but concerns about the demand outlook limit the upward trend of oil prices.

According to the monitoring of SunSirs, the price of toluene remained stable last week. On July 23, the price of toluene was 7,490.00 RMB/ton, and the price remained stable last week. Last week, the price of mixed xylene slightly increased. On July 23, the price of mixed xylene was at 7,720 RMB/ton, and on July 17, it was at 7,700 RMB/ton, an increase of 0.26%. PX prices rose last week. The ex factory price of P-Xylene was 8,500 RMB/ton on July 23 and 8,400 RMB/ton on July 17, up 1.19%.

The energy analysts of SunSirs believe that last week, the international crude oil fluctuated upward, supporting the cost of the Naphtha market. The downstream restructuring just needs to be strengthened, and the refinery actively pushed up. It is expected that the Naphtha market will continue to rise in the near future.
