    Assault Shandong! The major chemical province welcomes safety production inspections again!

    Assault Shandong! The major chemical province welcomes safety production inspections again!

    According to information from the Ministry of Emergency Management, Shandong, the largest chemical province in the country, has carried out centralized management of hazardous chemical safety risks and prevention of major safety risks
    .

    Among them, the emergency management department investigated the on-site safety management of major hazard sources of Weifang Xinhecheng Vitamin Company, Haiwang Chemical Company, Sinochem Hongrun Petroleum Storage and Transportation Company, Qingdao Haiwan Fine Chemical Company, Weitai Fine Chemical Company, Sinopec Qingdao The progress of major risk prevention and control and centralized governance of refining and chemical companies
    .

    In addition, it is also emphasized that Shandong should do a good job in the study and judgment of the safety risks of hazardous chemicals, do a good job in the prevention and control of the safety risks of major hazard sources, rectify and upgrade the chemical industry park, and carry out safety production content such as special management of safety risks in high-risk sub-sectors
    .
    At the same time, it is required to deeply analyze the characteristics of chemical production in the high temperature season in summer, take targeted preventive measures and safety risk management and control, and prevent and contain major accidents

    .

    As the largest province in chemical industry, Shandong has opened the first stop of the inspection of chemical safety production, which is expected to cover all provinces in the country from August
    .

    Record-breaking high temperature! Operating rates plummeted!

    Record-breaking high temperature! Operating rates plummeted!

    The abnormally high temperature this year has disrupted the global production order
    .
    Since July, extreme high temperature weather has occurred in many parts of the world.
    The weather in 21 European countries once exceeded 40 degrees Celsius, and a large number of chemical plants have suspended or slowed down production!
    Hot weather can even lead to wildfires, explosions and other accidents

    .

    In addition to the impact of mid-year maintenance and high temperature weather, the deputy minister of the emergency management department pointed out during his investigation in Shandong that he should learn from the accident and earnestly implement the fifteen hard measures for safety production and the deployment of the national safety production inspection
    .
    How will the market react to the news?

    According to market sources, the operating rate of some domestic chemical products is currently at a low level
    .
    The following is the operating rate of some chemical products from June to the present:

    *Data source: Tianfengfengyun; Zijin Tianfeng Futures Research Institute

    With the advancement of the national safety production inspection and deployment, the probability of maintenance of large chemical plants may increase, and the operating rate will be further reduced, and the raw material market may be boosted again as a result
    .
    For the specific situation, you need to pay more attention to the factory overhaul from August to September and the progress of the national safety production inspection.
    You can pay attention to the dynamics of the source factory in advance and prepare for stocking in time

    .

    The operating rate of some raw materials (*collected from various industry information):

    The operating rate of some raw materials (*collected from various industry information):

    Coal chemical industry: The operating rate of coal chemical products such as methanol and urea has dropped significantly, and the weekly coal consumption of the chemical industry has dropped to 5.
    25 million tons, a decrease of 180,000 tons from the previous month

    .

    Coatings: The main titanium dioxide enterprises in Shandong have seen a steady decline in the start of construction, and the demand for sulfuric acid has decreased significantly
    .

    Fertilizer: The compound fertilizer market started at a low level.
    The operating rate this week was 37.
    84%, which was 0.
    06% lower than last week

    .

    Monoammonium: 46.
    67% of the weekly production started, the average daily output was 26,800 tons, and the total weekly output was 187,400 tons.
    Both the start-up and production fell slightly compared with last week

    .

    Calcium hydrogen phosphate: The market operation is low, the output is expected to be 15,320 tons, down 29.
    72% from the previous month, and the operating rate is 15.
    65%, down 6.
    62% from the previous month

    .

    PTA: The market started at 68.
    73%.
    There was no change in the PTA device during the week.
    Since the previous maintenance and load reduction devices have not yet resumed, the overall PTA market has not started high

    .

    Carbon black: The total production capacity of carbon black in the country is about 8.
    542 million tons, and the industry started 62.
    2% on average this week, a decrease of 0.
    2 percentage points from last week

    Production reduction is difficult to meet demand, and it is difficult for the market outlook to rise?

    Production reduction is difficult to meet demand, and it is difficult for the market outlook to rise?

    The overall trend of the chemical market has been flat recently, with more declines, more rises, and less growth
    .
    The reason is inseparable from the sharp fluctuations in crude oil, weak actual market demand, asymmetric factory costs and profits, and the "shutdown" of key raw material countries

    .
    There is a lack of support on the cost and demand side, and the market is interlinked, and the overall situation is in a downturn

    .
    In general, the chemical market will continue to fluctuate weakly, and the contradiction between supply and demand will hardly be relieved in the short term

    .

    Crude oil fluctuates sharply:

    Crude oil fluctuates sharply:

    Since the dispute between Russia and Ukraine at the beginning of the year raised crude oil, oil prices have broken record highs and are in a high state
    .
    Crude oil prices fluctuated as the fighting continued

    .
    As of press time, international crude oil has closed down for three consecutive days, with prices fluctuating around $100

    .

    It is expected that with the increase in US inventories and the European Central Bank's unexpected interest rate hike, crude oil will continue to be pulled down, but because the supply gap is still there, the high point of crude oil in the third quarter is expected to reach 110-120 US dollars
    .
    In the short term, crude oil lacks cost support for chemical industry, and it is difficult for the chemical market to improve

    .

    Weak real market demand:

    Weak real market demand:

    At present, there are multiple sources showing that the actual demand in the market is weak
    .
    Due to the long-short game of crude oil and the unstable trend, the chemical market price fluctuates greatly.
    Most of the chemical manufacturers in the middle of the industrial chain are in the predicament of "zero profit production", and the terminal consumer market is cautious in purchasing on demand due to the previous high price.
    At present, the overall market is cautious.
    Demand continues to be poor and overall weak

    .

    Factory cost and profit are not equal:

    Factory cost and profit are not equal:

    Insufficient demand and continued high levels of raw materials have led to signs of asymmetry between factory costs and profits
    .
    Some factories reduced production to alleviate the current losses, and the overall operating rate of the market fell

    .

    Key raw material countries or "shutdowns":

    Key raw material countries or "shutdowns":

    The force majeure of Russia may cause the European giants to stop production, which may lead to the possibility of the global industrial chain being cut off
