Report Overview - Report Title: Fuel Oil and Low-Sulfur Fuel Oil Weekly Report - Report Date: August 31, 2025 - Analyst: Liang Kefang - Investment Advisory Qualification Number: Z0019111 - Report Institution: Guotai Junan Futures [1] Report Industry Investment Rating - No industry investment rating information is provided in the report. Report Core View - This week, fuel oil prices rose significantly at the beginning of the week but quickly fell as delivery issues were resolved. Overseas, Middle Eastern high-sulfur fuel oil exports remained high in August, and the high-sulfur market in the Asia-Pacific region is expected to be weak in the short term due to weak power generation and refining demand, with low import volumes in the Middle East and China. Only the fact that Russia's export volume has not significantly recovered provides some support for the valuation. Domestically, the issue of the delivery warehouse being sanctioned has been resolved with a significant increase in on - exchange warehouse receipts, which will continue to suppress the FU futures price. For low - sulfur fuel oil, the Asia - Pacific spot market is still abundant. Kuwait and Indonesia have increased their exports of low - sulfur fuel oil to the Asia - Pacific this month, and Japanese refineries are gradually resuming production, increasing spot supply and suppressing spot prices. Domestically, the newly issued export quota is the core factor affecting the futures price trend. If the quota is too low, it may support short - term prices; if the quota increases significantly year - on - year, it means that future port spot supply will be abundant, and the price of near - month contracts will continue to be suppressed. - Valuation: FU is valued at 2750 - 3000, and LU is valued at 3400 - 3600. - Strategy: - Unilateral: FU will continue to be weak in the short term, and LU will fluctuate in a narrow range. - Inter - period: The near - term spread of FU may continue to decline; LU will maintain its current structure. - Inter - variety: The crack spread of FU has fallen to the historical average and may rise in the future; the LU - FU spread will remain high in the short term.
