In the middle and north of China, the overall heating and raw gas auction are not expected to be favorable. At the same time, due to the emergency response to heavy polluted weather in some areas such as Hebei and Henan, industrial users have reduced production and the demand has continued to decline. In addition, cold air strikes, rain and snow weather affect logistics, and manufacturers' shipment may continue to be under pressure. It is expected that China domestic LNG market will be weak.
On November 19, after the domestic methanol market rose, some manufacturers lowered their ex-factory quotations by about 50 RMB/ ton. In the middle and late November, the market of urea in Shandong Province may rise slightly. The cost of dichloromethane production enterprises is high, the downstream demand is limited, the operating rate of enterprises has declined, the market supply has been reduced, and the market has a strong wait-and-see atmosphere.
