Report Title - The report is titled "Hualian Futures LPG Weekly Report - Weak Cost Side" dated October 26, 2025 [2] Report Industry Investment Rating - No industry investment rating is provided in the report Report's Core View - The report analyzes the LPG market from multiple aspects and suggests temporarily waiting and watching or participating in intraday trading, highlighting risks associated with crude oil trends and macro - risks [5] Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Weekly View - **Upstream**: Crude oil rebounded from its annual low, driven by improved macro - sentiment and new sanctions on Russia. Previously, trade wars, rising financial risks, poor demand prospects, and weak financial attributes pressured oil prices. OPEC+ continued to increase production, but factors like the strength of gold and complex geopolitical situations may support oil prices [5] - **Supply**: Sino - US tariff issues resurfaced. The US is the largest source of China's LPG imports. China is seeking diversified import sources, and the impact of this tariff issue is expected to be less severe than before. Domestic production has decreased marginally, and the drag from competing LNG prices has weakened. Freight rates have continued to decline [5] - **Inventory**: Inventory decreased significantly on a weekly basis. Port storage capacity utilization dropped to a multi - year low, refinery storage capacity remained near a multi - year low, and gas station storage capacity rebounded. US inventory continued to rise from a high level, and exchange warehouse receipts were cancelled after reaching a record high [5] - **Demand**: Combustion demand is transitioning from the off - season to the peak season. Gasoline consumption is at a four - year low, and catering consumption growth has slowed. Chemical demand has increased week - on - week. PDH capacity utilization rebounded from a multi - year low, but margins are poor; alkylation capacity utilization declined seasonally with low margins; MTBE capacity utilization is high, and losses are narrowing [5] - **Strategy**: It is recommended to wait and watch or participate in intraday trading [5] 2. Spot and Futures Market - **"Gas/Oil" Ratio**: The spot "gas/oil" ratio is slightly above the neutral level. High tariffs previously affected LPG imports, leading to a high premium of LPG over crude oil. Currently, LPG inventory is rising [10] - **Spot Price**: Spot prices have been fluctuating since Q4 2023 and have declined in recent months. Combustion demand is currently in the off - season [12] - **Basis**: The basis has declined on a weekly basis. The basis shows significant fluctuations, seasonality, regional differences, and a large discount in the expiration month of warehouse receipts, indicating that the LPG spot market has some degree of monopoly [15][18] - **Spread between Contracts**: In Q1 this year, the 3 - 4 month spread of LPG futures once strongly shifted to a back structure [22] 3. Related Products - LNG prices have rebounded and are approaching LPG prices. International frozen cargo prices rebounded slightly and then weakened again [26] 4. Inventory - **China's LPG Inventory**: Inventory decreased on a weekly basis. Port storage capacity is at a multi - year median level, refinery storage capacity is near a multi - year low, and gas station storage capacity is neutral. Port inventory decreased after rebounding to a high level. US inventory continued to rise from a high level [31] - **Warehouse Receipts**: Warehouse receipts reached a record high and then were cancelled [39] 5. Supply Side - **Import and Export Volume**: No specific analysis of import and export volume trends is provided in the text, but it is mentioned that China is seeking diversified LPG import sources [5] - **Supply Volume**: LPG supply volume increased on a weekly basis but was lower than in 2023 and 2024. As refinery integration increases, supply may decline. Freight rates rebounded from a low level to a one - and - a - half - year high and then softened, and the Panama Canal is operating well [50][52] - **Import Margin**: No specific analysis of import margin trends is provided in the text [54] 6. Demand Side - **Consumption Demand**: Gasoline additive demand is weak, household combustion demand is declining, and commercial combustion demand growth has slowed. The increasing penetration rate of new energy vehicles is accelerating the substitution of gasoline additive demand [60] - **Capacity Utilization**: MTBE capacity utilization has softened from a high level, alkylation capacity utilization has declined seasonally, and PDH capacity utilization has dropped again and is approaching a multi - year low. In 2024, PDH capacity increased by 425,000 tons to 2.152 million tons, with an increase of nearly 25%, and there may be more than 200,000 tons of new capacity coming online in 2025 [61][64][67] 7. Industrial Chain Structure - The total LPG supply is at the 80 - million - ton level, with 58% from domestic production and 42% from imports.
