国泰君安期货能源化工C3产业链周度报告-20260118
Guo Tai Jun An Qi Huo· 2026-01-18 07:51
Report Overview - Report Title: C3 Industry Chain Weekly Report - Report Date: January 18, 2026 - Report Author: Chen Xinchao, Zhao Shucen Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Views LPG Part - Short - term supply is tight, and attention should be paid to the realization of downward drivers. Although the supply in the Middle East remains tight, there is still supply pressure after the impact of fog at US terminals weakens. With low chemical profits and many PDH maintenance plans in Q1, the downward drive is significant. [3][4] - The lowest deliverable product may switch as the spread between Shandong civil and ether - post C4 widens. Near the cancellation month, attention should be paid to the change in the number of warehouse receipts. [4] Propylene Part - After the rapid rise of spot prices, the upward drive weakens. The tight - balance pattern of propylene is difficult to change next week. Although the downstream's enthusiasm for chasing high - priced propylene may weaken, the rigid demand for production provides strong support, so propylene is expected to remain in an upward - biased pattern. [6][7] Summary by Directory LPG Part Price & Spread - Domestic LPG spot prices maintain a moderately strong and fluctuating trend. The lowest deliverable product is still Shandong civil gas, and the spread between civil and ether - post C4 has widened to 100 yuan/ton. [10][13] - Propane prices maintain a moderately strong trend, with the FEI index and related import costs showing an upward trend. The spot premium further increases, and the freight rate remains stable, while the arbitrage window from the US Gulf to the Far East expands. [10][21][27] Supply - US LPG shipments to Asia are flat month - on - month, while Middle East shipments are tight. The total LPG commodity volume is 51.9 tons (+0.1%), with 21.7 tons of civil gas (-0.1%) and 16.7 tons of ether - post C4 (-0.1%). Propane imports decrease by 0.2 tons month - on - month. [39][43][49][63] Demand & Inventory - PDH operating rates decline, while MTBE operating rates remain flat. LPG refinery inventories are at a neutral level compared to the same period in 2025, with a slight de - stocking of civil gas refinery inventories. Port inventories in East China, Shandong, and South China decline month - on - month, while Fujian accumulates inventory due to concentrated arrivals. [80][82][100] Propylene Part Price & Spread - The cost - end propane is firm, propylene prices rise strongly, and PDH profits fluctuate and recover. Downstream prices continue to rise, but the spread between propylene and powder returns to the loss range. International and domestic propylene prices rise month - on - month, and the import window is partially opened. [115][117][118] Balance Sheet - PDH and MTO operating rates decline month - on - month, and the powder profit is compressed, leading to a decline in its operating rate. The supply is expected to tighten gradually as the Jinneng PDH and Lianyungang Shenghong MTO are expected to undergo maintenance. The demand is supported by the rigid procurement of PP powder, and the situation is expected to improve in January. [139][159] Supply - The overall upstream operating rate of propylene is 75.2% (-0.7%). Refinery operating rates remain stable, while cracking and PDH operating rates decline. MTO operating rates also decline, but profits are recovering. [170][190][195] - The import volume of propylene increases by 0.96 tons (7.21%) month - on - month, and the import profit shows an upward trend. [204] Demand - The operating rates of PP, PP powder, PO, and acrylonitrile decline, while the operating rates of n - butanol, octanol, phenol - acetone, and ECH increase. The profit performance of PP shows process differentiation, and the profit of PP powder returns to the loss range. PO prices rise strongly, and the company's profitability improves significantly. [211][231][243][273] Downstream Inventory - PP production enterprise inventory, trader inventory, and powder inventory all decline. The inventory of acrylonitrile plants and ports shows different changes, and the inventory of phenol and acetone in Jiangyin Port declines. [298][299][300]

Wu Kuang Qi Huo· 2026-01-17 13:59
1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core View of the Report - The domestic PVC market is characterized by strong supply and weak demand, with poor fundamentals. Although short - term electricity price expectations and the rush to export may support PVC prices, in the medium term, the strategy of short - selling on rallies should be adopted before substantial industry production cuts [11]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1. Weekly Assessment and Strategy Recommendation - **Cost and Profit**: Wuhai calcium carbide price is 2,400 yuan/ton, unchanged week - on - week; Shandong calcium carbide price is 2,805 yuan/ton, up 25 yuan week - on - week; Shaanxi medium - grade semi - coke is 820 yuan/ton, unchanged week - on - week. The comprehensive profit of chlor - alkali integration has declined to a low level again, while the profit of ethylene - based production has increased, with the current valuation being moderately low [11]. - **Supply**: The PVC capacity utilization rate is 79.6%, unchanged from the previous week. Among them, the calcium carbide method is 80%, up 0.3% from the previous week; the ethylene method is 78.8%, down 0.8% from the previous week. The supply - side load was flat last week, with the loads of Fujian Wanhua, Yibin Tianyuan, and Salt Lake Magnesium Industry decreasing. The load is expected to decline next week. The overall load in January is still expected to be high, with a small reduction in production and high supply pressure [11]. - **Demand**: It is currently the off - season for exports, but the export tax rebate policy is planned to be cancelled on April 1st, leading to a short - term rush to export. The operating rates of the three major downstream sectors remained stable. The pipe load is 35.4%, unchanged from the previous week; the film load is 66.4%, unchanged from the previous week; the profile load is 29.9%, down 0.3% from the previous week. The overall downstream load is 43.9%, down 0.1% from the previous week, and the overall downstream operating rate is gradually entering the off - season. Last week, the PVC pre - sales volume was 92.6 million tons, up 1.7 million tons from the previous week [11]. - **Inventory**: Last week, the in - factory inventory was 31.1 million tons, with a destocking of 1.7 million tons from the previous week; the social inventory was 114.4 million tons, with a stockpiling of 3 million tons from the previous week; the overall inventory was 145.5 million tons, with a stockpiling of 1.3 million tons from the previous week; the number of warehouse receipts decreased. Currently, inventory is turning to stockpiling. In the context of strong supply and weak demand, domestic demand has entered the off - season. Short - term exports may surge due to the rush to export, but there is significant medium - term export pressure, making it difficult to digest the high production volume [11]. 3.2. Futures and Spot Market - The content mainly includes multiple charts such as PVC term structure, East China SG - 5 price, spot basis, 5 - 9 spread, active contract positions, trading volume, total positions, and total trading volume, showing the historical trends of these data from 2022 to 2026 [15][19][24][26] 3.3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The PVC market is expected to see a volatile downward trend in the short - term, but the 03 - 05 contracts are expected to show a relatively strong volatile trend under the stimulus of the cancellation of export tax rebates [1] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Analysis - The calcium carbide price in the upstream Northwest region is stable. The PVC开工率 decreased by 0.04 percentage points to 79.63% week - on - week, remaining basically stable and at a neutral level in recent years. The downstream PVC开工率 decreased by 0.11 percentage points week - on - week. Downstream product orders are poor, and the willingness to actively stock up is low. Export orders last week were lower than before New Year's Day, at a general level. The Indian market price is low, and the demand from India is limited. However, there may be a rush to export before April 1, 2026, when China cancels the export tax rebate for PVC. Social inventories continued to increase last week and are still at a high level, with significant inventory pressure. The real estate market is still in the adjustment stage, and the year - on - year decline in investment, new construction, construction, and completion areas is still large. The 30 - city weekly commercial housing transaction area increased week - on - week but is still at the lowest level in recent years. The macro - environment is warm, which has boosted the sentiment in the commodity market, but the comprehensive gross profit of chlor - alkali is under pressure, and the production expectations of some enterprises have decreased, though the current production decline is limited. The PVC开工率 will change little next week as Fujian Wanhua and Yibin Tianyuan are still under maintenance. The futures warehouse receipts are still at a high level. January is the traditional off - season for domestic PVC demand, and downstream buyers are resistant to high prices. With the approaching Spring Festival, procurement enthusiasm is average, and social inventories continue to increase [1] 3.2 Futures and Spot Market Conditions - Futures: The PVC2605 contract decreased in an oscillating manner with a position reduction. The lowest price was 4,782 yuan/ton, the highest was 4,886 yuan/ton, and it finally closed at 4,803 yuan/ton, below the 20 - day moving average, with a decline of 1.52%. The position volume decreased by 21,502 lots to 1,020,573 lots [2] - Basis: On January 16, the mainstream price of calcium carbide - based PVC in East China dropped to 4,558 yuan/ton. The futures closing price of the V2605 contract was 4,803 yuan/ton. The current basis is - 253 yuan/ton, strengthening by 35 yuan/ton, and the basis is at a relatively low level [3] 3.3 Fundamental Tracking - Supply: Affected by facilities such as Fujian Wanhua and Yibin Tianyuan, the PVC开工率 decreased by 0.04 percentage points to 79.63% week - on - week, remaining basically stable and at a neutral level in recent years. New production capacities of 500,000 tons/year from Wanhua Chemical, 400,000 tons/year from Tianjin Bohua, 200,000 tons/year from Qingdao Gulf, and 300,000 tons/year from Gansu Yaowang were put into production in the second half of the year.
