Core Viewpoints - The core contradictions affecting LPG price trends include cost - end crude oil under supply - surplus pressure and geopolitical disturbances, with weekly crude prices oscillating between $62 - $66; the release of the November CP contract price with propane at $475/ton (-20) and butane at $460/ton (-15), indicating supply - side pressure; the start of propane destocking in the US with inventory still at a historical high; and relatively stable domestic fundamentals with low arrivals and a slight contraction in the supply side, while chemical demand remains strong in the short - term with PDH operating at a 70% - 75% rate despite compressed profits [3]. - The signing of a 2026 LPG supply agreement between Indian state - owned oil companies and the US, involving 2.2 million tons of annual imports, is a positive factor for the US supply side [3]. - Negative factors include continuous losses at the domestic PDH end, which may cause negative feedback, and the contraction of Asian cracking profits potentially reducing the demand for PG as a cracking substitute, with South Korean companies having maintenance and load - reduction plans in November and December [3]. 3.
