1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the given content. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The high - sulfur fuel oil market remains generally loose in supply and demand, with high inventories suppressing prices. The low - sulfur fuel oil supply is increasing, and downstream demand lacks specific drivers, but the supply pressure in the fourth quarter is less than expected [4][9][60]. - For trading strategies, it is recommended to expect the FU main contract to be in a short - term strong - side volatile state, the LU near - month contract to fluctuate within a range following crude oil, pay attention to the opportunity of expanding the spread between LU01 and FU01, and sell out - of - the - money call options of FU01 [5][60][61]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 First Part: Preface Summary 3.1.1 Market Review - In September, the high - sulfur fuel oil had positive drivers on both the supply and demand sides, with the high - sulfur crack steadily rising by about $1.8 per barrel to around - $3.2 per barrel. The low - sulfur fuel oil fluctuated weakly. The RFCC unit of Nigeria's Dangote refinery malfunctioned again at the end of August, increasing the near - term supply pressure of low - sulfur fuel oil [3][9]. 3.1.2 Market Outlook - The high - sulfur fuel oil exports from Russia are relatively stable, and the inventories in Singapore and China are still high. The expected increase in feedstock demand is not enough to quickly digest the existing inventories, so the overall supply - demand in the fuel oil market remains loose. The supply pressure of low - sulfur fuel oil in the fourth quarter is less than expected, with the Nigerian RFCC unit expected to return early and some refineries in China still restricted in supply [4]. 3.1.3 Strategy Recommendation - Unilateral: Expect a volatile market. - Arbitrage: Pay attention to the opportunity of expanding LU01 - FU01. - Options: Sell out - of - the - money call options of FU01 [5]. 3.2 Second Part: Fundamental Situation 3.2.1 Market Review - Similar to the preface summary, in September, the high - sulfur fuel oil had positive drivers on both supply and demand sides, but high inventories restricted the market. The low - sulfur fuel oil was weakly volatile, with increased near - term supply pressure and relatively abundant low - sulfur component supply [9]. 3.2.2 Supply Overview - **High - sulfur fuel oil supply**: - Russia: Despite continuous attacks on energy facilities, the recovery is fast, and fuel oil exports have increased. For example, in August, Russia's seaborne petroleum product exports increased by 8.9% month - on - month, and in September, the fuel oil flow increased by 22% month - on - month [18][20]. - Mexico: High - sulfur exports are continuously falling due to the commissioning of secondary units in Olmeca and Tula refineries [22]. - Middle East: High - sulfur exports have increased after the peak power - generation demand season. In August, high - sulfur exports reached the highest level this year, but Iran's exports are still restricted [26]. - **Low - sulfur fuel oil supply**: - Nigeria: The RFCC unit of Dangote refinery is still unstable in operation, and low - sulfur exports are increasing. The Harcourt refinery has been closed for two consecutive months, and the Warri refinery has no crude oil quota [45][47]. - Middle East: The Al - Zour refinery maintains high - level low - sulfur exports under stable operation. South Sudan's low - sulfur heavy feedstock exports to the Pan - Singapore region are expected to increase due to the conflict with the UAE [47][48]. - China: The third batch of low - sulfur fuel oil quotas has been issued, and the overall market supply is relatively abundant [50]. 3.2.3 Demand Overview - **High - sulfur fuel oil demand**: - Marine fuel bunkering demand: It provides stable support. As of mid - September 2025, the number of ships equipped with desulfurization towers has increased. In August 2025, high - sulfur marine fuel bunkering in Singapore decreased slightly month - on - month but was still at a high year - on - year level [34]. - Feedstock demand: Supported by the low cost of high - sulfur cracking decline and tax reform, but the support is not obvious. Import demand has been low since July and August [37][39]. - Power - generation demand: It has completely subsided. In Egypt and the Middle East, high - sulfur power - generation demand has decreased significantly [41][43]. - **Low - sulfur fuel oil demand**: - Marine fuel bunkering demand: It is stable without specific drivers. In August 2025, low - sulfur marine fuel bunkering in Singapore increased slightly month - on - month [49]. 3.2.4 Inventory and Valuation - No specific content provided in the given materials. 3.3 Third Part: Future Outlook and Strategy Recommendation - **Future Outlook**: - High - sulfur fuel oil: Supply from Russia, the Middle East, and Mexico shows different trends. Demand from power - generation has disappeared, and feedstock demand support is weak. High - level inventories suppress prices, and attention should be paid to new warrant generation and inventory digestion [60]. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: The spot window transaction price is low, and the supply continues to increase. The conflict between South Sudan and the UAE may change the logistics of low - sulfur heavy feedstock, and the Nigerian RFCC unit's operation is unstable. The overall supply in the Chinese market is abundant [60]. - **Strategy Recommendation**: - Unilateral: The FU main contract is expected to be strongly volatile in the short term, and the LU near - month contract will fluctuate within a range following crude oil. - Arbitrage: Pay attention to the opportunity of expanding the spread between LU01 and FU01. - Options: Sell out - of - the - money call options of FU01 [60][61].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content found Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - High - sulfur supply and inventory in Asia remain high in the near - term, with supply pressure in Q3 lower than expected. High - sulfur seasonal power generation demand is gradually declining, but feedstock demand is still supported. New high - sulfur warehouse receipts generation and subsequent inventory digestion rhythm should be noted. Low - sulfur fuel oil spot premium is continuously decreasing, with supply rising and no specific downstream demand drivers. Attention should be paid to low - sulfur export trends, quota adjustment and issuance rhythm [7] Group 3: Summary According to the Table of Contents Part 1: Relevant Data - FU main contract price on September 10, 2025, was 2786, up 20 from the previous day; its main contract position was 196,000 lots, down 4,000 lots; and its warehouse receipts were 101,500 tons, unchanged from the previous day. LU main contract price was 3383, down 2 from the previous day; its main contract position was 74,000 lots, up 2,000 lots; and its warehouse receipts were 10,020 tons, unchanged from the previous day. The spread between LU and FU main contracts was 597, down 22 from the previous day [3] Part 2: Market Research and Judgment Market Overview - IIR reported that the preliminary restart plan of the RFCC unit at Nigeria's Dangote refinery has been postponed to December 10 [6] Market Research - High - sulfur: Supply pressure in Q3 is lower than expected due to factors such as attacks on Russian refineries by Ukraine, reduced high - sulfur exports from Mexico, and low - level exports from the Middle East. Seasonal power generation demand is falling, but feedstock demand is supported. Singapore's high - sulfur bunker fuel bunkering volume in July reached the highest level since IMO2020. Low - sulfur: Spot premium is continuously decreasing, supply is rising, and downstream demand lacks specific drivers. Attention should be paid to low - sulfur export trends and quota adjustment and issuance rhythm [7] Other Information - FU warehouse receipts were 101,500 tons, unchanged from the previous day; LU warehouse receipts were 10,020 tons, unchanged from the previous day. In the Singapore paper market, the high - sulfur Sep/Oct monthly spread decreased from 1.2 to 0.6 US dollars per ton, and the low - sulfur Sep/Oct monthly spread remained at 2.3 US dollars per ton [8] Part 3: Relevant Attached Figures - There are figures showing Singapore's high - sulfur and low - sulfur spot premiums, high - and low - sulfur price spreads, LSFO - GO spreads, and high - and low - sulfur fuel oil cracking spreads, with data sources from Galaxy Futures and Reuters [9]

Ukrainian bombings of Russian refineries continue, affecting some refinery capacities. Mexican high - sulfur exports are declining, and Middle - East high - sulfur exports are stable at a low level. High - sulfur supply pressure in the third quarter is slightly lower than expected. High - sulfur seasonal power - generation demand is gradually decreasing, and the support from feedstock demand in China after the increase in the consumption - tax deduction ratio is not obvious. Singapore's high - sulfur bunker fuel bunkering volume in July reached the highest level since IMO2020 [7] - Low - sulfur fuel oil spot premiums are continuously declining. The increase in spot - window sellers and near - term supply growth are hitting low - sulfur spot prices. Low - sulfur supply is continuously increasing, and there is no specific driver for downstream demand. Nigerian RFCC units have intermittent maintenance, and South - Sudan's low - sulfur raw - material supply is gradually returning to the early 2024 level. Al - Zour's low - sulfur exports have rebounded to the high level of normal refinery operation, with a significant increase in exports to Singapore.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. 2. Core Views of the Report - As the number of refinery maintenance continues to decrease, the global fuel oil production has increased month - on - month. The export volume of high - sulfur fuel oil in the Middle East has rapidly recovered, and the global high - sulfur supply will gradually shift to a loose pattern. However, the significant decrease in Brazil's export volume has provided some support for the global low - sulfur market [7]. - In the bunker market, the spread between Bunker and FOB has widened again. The decrease in fuel oil imports and increase in exports in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait may indicate that the power generation demand is gradually coming to an end. In China, fuel oil demand remains low, and the overall processing and bunker demand is weak [7]. - The fuel oil prices around the world have generally declined this month. In the first half of the month, the low - sulfur prices performed relatively strongly, and the low - sulfur cracking in Singapore, Fujairah and other places maintained an upward trend. However, there were obvious signs of weakness in low - sulfur fuel oil in the second half of the month. The increase in supply - side pressure in the near - term has led to a rapid decline in the paper - cargo monthly spreads of fuel oil in various regions [7]. - As previously predicted, with the fading of the impact of geopolitical risk events in June, the trading logic of the fuel oil market has returned to the fundamentals of supply and demand. The increase in refinery operations has led to a gradual recovery in fuel oil production, and the increasing supply pressure is the core factor leading to the decline in prices, cracking spreads, and monthly spreads. August is the turning point between the off - season and peak season of refined oil consumption in the Northern Hemisphere, which means that the seasonal demand benefits will continue to decline this month, further exerting downward pressure on fuel oil valuations [7]. - For high - sulfur fuel oil, the significant increase in Middle East exports is one of the biggest negative factors. Due to the abundance of spot goods, there were few transactions in the Platts window in August, and it is expected that the weakness of the spot market will continue to suppress prices. In addition to the Middle East, the large - scale maintenance of Russian refineries will end this month, and the export volume from Russia is expected to continue to rise at the end of the month. The entire high - sulfur market may gradually shift from supply - side looseness to a phase of oversupply [7]. - For low - sulfur fuel oil, although there has been no obvious increase in Brazil's exports, the export volumes of Kuwait and Indonesia are still rising, and the low - sulfur prices in the Asia - Pacific region have started to weaken month - on - month. In China, the production schedule of major refineries has continued to increase, and the bonded area has continued to accumulate inventory. The slow digestion of port spot goods has led to obvious weakness in the LU futures market. However, as the exports of major refineries increase, the remaining quota will gradually run out. Therefore, the quantity of the next batch of quotas will be a key focus in the future, which will determine the tightness of the deliverable resource supply for LU in the follow - up. Overall, it is believed that the cracking spreads and monthly spreads of high - sulfur fuel oil in August may continue to decline due to negative supply - side factors, and the weakness of low - sulfur fuel oil will also continue. Attention is recommended to the possibility of further narrowing of the spread between high - and low - sulfur fuel oil [7]. 3. Summaries According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Global Fuel Oil Spot Prices and Spreads - **Price and Spread Fluctuations**: The FOB prices of fuel oil in various regions around the world generally declined this month. For example, the FOB price of 3.5% fuel oil in Singapore decreased by 2.29%, and the FOB price of 0.5% fuel oil decreased by 3.40%.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core View of the Report - Last week, international crude oil showed a volatile trend, and fuel oil prices mainly followed suit. High - sulfur fuel oil closed at 2,862 yuan/ton, down 1.82% for the week, and low - sulfur fuel oil closed at 3,571 yuan/ton, down 1.16% for the week [5]. - The market structure of Asian low - sulfur fuel oil continued to weaken due to sufficient immediate supply. Although the arbitrage window for 0.5% sulfur marine fuel from Northwest Europe to Singapore remained closed, a large amount of low - sulfur blending components continued to flow into the Singapore market. Traders were worried about potential inventory accumulation due to short - term oversupply in Singapore [5]. - For high - sulfur fuel oil, sufficient immediate supply and expected increase in arbitrage cargoes continued to suppress the market fundamentals. Weak power generation demand in South Asia this summer hit market sentiment, and traders were concerned that the decline in summer power generation demand might exacerbate the oversupply situation in the coming weeks [5]. - Subsequently, crude oil prices may fluctuate and recover, but fuel oil prices will still face pressure. The suggested operation is to trade high - sulfur fuel oil in the 2,780 - 2,950 yuan/ton range and low - sulfur fuel oil in the 3,500 - 3,650 yuan/ton range [5]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Week - ly View - High - sulfur fuel oil closed at 2,862 yuan/ton, down 1.82% for the week; low - sulfur fuel oil closed at 3,571 yuan/ton, down 1.16% for the week. The market structure of Asian low - sulfur fuel oil weakened due to sufficient supply, and high - sulfur fuel oil faced pressure from supply and weak power generation demand in South Asia. Suggested trading ranges are 2,780 - 2,950 yuan/ton for high - sulfur and 3,500 - 3,650 yuan/ton for low - sulfur [5]. 3.2 Futures and Spot Prices - **Futures Prices**: The FU main contract futures price increased from 2,904 to 2,918, up 0.48%. The LU main contract futures price increased from 3,578 to 3,644, up 1.83% [6]. - **Spot Prices**: The prices of various types of fuel oil in different regions showed different degrees of change. For example, the price of Zhoushan high - sulfur fuel oil decreased from 518.00 to 511.00, down 1.35%, and the price of Singapore diesel increased from 673.24 to 678.02, up 0.71% [7]. 3.3 Fundamental Data - **Consumption Data**: Graphs showed the consumption trends of Singapore fuel oil, Chinese fuel oil, and Shandong fuel oil coking margin from 2021 to 2025 [8][9][10]. 3.4 Inventory Data - **Singapore Fuel Oil Inventory**: The inventory data from May 14 to July 30 showed fluctuations. For example, on May 14, the inventory was 2,490.9 million barrels with an increase of 78 million barrels, and on July 30, it was 2,027.9 million barrels with an increase of 37 million barrels [12]. 3.5 Spread Data - The graph of the high - low sulfur futures spread showed the relationship between FU and LU [16].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report - High - sulfur fuel oil: In the third quarter, the supply pressure is slightly less than expected. The demand for feedstock is favorable due to the peak season of refined oil and the increase in fuel oil consumption tax deduction in China. The seasonal power - generation demand is gradually declining, and attention should be paid to the import logistics changes in Egypt and Saudi Arabia [5][63]. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: The supply continues to rise, and the downstream demand has no specific driving force. The spot premium fluctuates. Attention should be paid to the export logistics changes of low - sulfur fuel oil in the near term, the adjustment and issuance rhythm of low - sulfur quotas [63]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 First Part: Preface Summary 3.1.1 Market Review - High - sulfur fuel oil: In July, it was suppressed by high near - term supply and inventory. The spot premium and cracking in Singapore fluctuated at low levels. The demand for power generation in the Middle East and Egypt decreased, while the feedstock demand in China began to pick up slightly after the tax reform. The market expected an increase in high - sulfur heavy raw materials [4]. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: It maintained a weak oscillating market in July. The low - sulfur cracking followed the gasoline cracking and continued to decline. The short - and medium - term supply was abundant with an expected increase. The demand had no specific positive drivers, and shipping demand was affected by macro - tariff and geopolitical issues [4]. 3.1.2 Market Outlook - High - sulfur fuel oil: The supply pressure in the third quarter is slightly less than expected. The demand for feedstock is expected to increase, and attention should be paid to the power - generation demand and import logistics in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: The supply continues to rise, and the downstream demand remains weak [5]. 3.1.3 Strategy Recommendation - Unilateral: Wait and see. Pay attention to geopolitical and macro - disturbances. - Arbitrage: Pay attention to the digestion rhythm of high - sulfur spot in the near term and wait and see. - Options: None [6][63]. 3.2 Second Part: Fundamental Situation 3.2.1 Market Review - High - sulfur fuel oil: Similar to the previous review, it was affected by supply and demand factors, with the spot premium and cracking in Singapore declining [10]. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: Maintained a weak oscillation. The short - and medium - term supply was abundant, and the demand was affected by macro and geopolitical issues [10]. 3.2.2 Supply Overview - High - sulfur fuel oil: - Russia: The refinery offline capacity was increased twice in July, and the export was at a very low level in the same period. The sanctions from Europe and the United States were gradually intensified [19][20]. - Mexico: The high - sulfur supply decreased significantly, and the Olmeca refinery's secondary device was gradually put into operation [23]. - Middle East: The high - sulfur export was stable at a low level, and the export to the pan - Singapore region decreased significantly [27]. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: - South Sudan: The supply of low - sulfur heavy raw materials has recovered stably, and the 8 - month loading tenders have increased compared with July [43][44]. - Middle East Al - Zour Refinery: The low - sulfur export is expected to remain at a stable high level, and the supply to the pan - Singapore region has increased month - on - month [46]. - Nigeria Dangote Refinery: The RFCC device is still unstable in operation, and low - sulfur export tenders are continuously issued [49]. 3.2.3 Demand Overview - High - sulfur fuel oil: - Marine fuel demand: It is stably supported, and the marginal increase comes from the stable growth of the number of ships with desulfurization towers [33]. - Feedstock demand: The increase in the domestic consumption tax deduction ratio supports the subsequent feedstock demand, and the import is expected to recover stably [36]. - Power - generation demand: The power - generation demand in Egypt remains high, and the demand in the Middle East is expected to be strong in July and then decline gradually [39][40]. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: - Marine fuel demand: It is stable, and the low - sulfur fuel oil loading in Singapore and other places has certain fluctuations [52]. - Domestic production and demand: The domestic bonded low - sulfur production is stable, and attention should be paid to the quota conversion news [53]. 3.2.4 Inventory and Valuation No information provided in the report. 3.3 Third Part: Future Outlook and Strategy Recommendation - High - sulfur fuel oil: The supply pressure in the third quarter is slightly less than expected, and the demand for feedstock is expected to increase. Attention should be paid to the import logistics in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. - Low - sulfur fuel oil: The supply continues to rise, and the demand has no specific drivers. Attention should be paid to the export logistics and quota adjustment [63]. - Strategy Recommendation: - Unilateral: Wait and see. Pay attention to geopolitical and macro - disturbances. - Arbitrage: Pay attention to the digestion rhythm of high - sulfur spot in the near term and wait and see. - Options: None [63].
