中国石化新闻网讯 据石化新闻2020年12月4日休斯敦报道，全球聚乙烯市场预计进入2021年将面临供应过剩的局面，就像2020年初看到的那样，这可能会压低价格。2020年飓风袭击美国墨西哥湾沿岸，造成聚乙烯产量紧缩，导致聚乙烯价格飙升。 除了在8月和10月美国飓风袭击路易斯安那州西南部和德克萨斯州东南部后恢复正常情况外，亚洲的新聚乙烯产能也随时准备启动。 虽然在全球冠状病毒疫情大流行期间，聚乙烯的需求在很大程度上保持弹性，但由于各地区面临新冠肺炎感染数激增和持续失业的问题，相对于冠状病毒疫情爆发前水平的整体需求疲软预计将持续下去。 能源咨询分析公司石化行业高级主管罗伯?斯蒂尔日前表示，“随着2021年的到来，在墨西哥湾沿岸由飓风劳拉(Laura)引发的众多聚乙烯厂停产将会结束。由于产能回归市场，聚乙烯供应将会增加，聚乙烯价格将面临压力。" 李峻 编译自 石化新闻 原文如下： Global polyethylene markets expecting oversupply in H1 2021 Global polyethylene markets were expected to enter 2021 facing oversupply, much like that seen in early 2020, which could soften prices that soared when output tightened amid a one-two punch from 2020 hurricanes that hit the US Gulf Coast. New capacity was on tap to start up in Asia, in addition to restoration of normal rates in the aftermath of US hurricanes that hit Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas in August and October. While PE demand has been largely resilient throughout the global coronavirus pandemic, overall softness compared to pre-coronavirus levels was largely expected to linger as regions struggle with infection surges and continued unemployment. "As we head into 2021, the numerous plant outages that started in the US Gulf Coast with Hurricane Laura and then expanded globally will come to an end," said Rob Stier, senior lead of petrochemicals. "As capacity returns to the market, supply will increase and prices will come under pressure." |
