Report Overview - Report Title: Fuel Oil and Low-Sulfur Fuel Oil Weekly Report [1] - Report Date: July 20, 2025 [1] - Analyst: Liang Kefang [1] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Views - This week, fuel oil prices rebounded overall, and the strength comparison between high-sulfur and low-sulfur fuel oil changed. For high-sulfur fuel oil, global refinery operations reached a seasonal high, and exports from the Middle East and Russia increased significantly. Despite the relatively strong price trend compared to low-sulfur fuel oil this week and being in the peak demand season for marine and power generation, it is difficult for high-sulfur fuel oil to have continuous upward movement due to the obvious supply recovery. For low-sulfur fuel oil, the supply recovery trend is also obvious. The maintenance of Japanese refineries is gradually ending, exports from Brazil are gradually recovering, and exports from Kuwait are also increasing, which may lead to a weakening of spot prices in the Asia-Pacific region in the future. In the domestic market, major refineries are likely to ensure gasoline and diesel production in the next two months, so they will not significantly increase low-sulfur fuel oil production, and the domestic LU price still has fundamental support in the short term [4]. - Valuation: FU: 2850 - 3000, LU: 3500 - 3700 [4]. - Strategy: 1) Unilateral: Follow the upward trend of crude oil and fluctuate strongly. 2) Inter - term: The back structure of FU and LU continues, but the increase in near - term supply will suppress the monthly spread at a low level. 3) Inter - variety: The FU crack spread has fallen to the historical average; the LU - FU spread will remain high in the short term [4].
