Asia ethylene-naphtha spread rises $22.05/mt on day to hit 3-month high
Tokyo (Platts)--26 Aug 2016
The Asia price spread between ethylene and feedstock naphtha rose $22.05/mt day on day to $802.38/mt Thursday, the highest level since May 10, when the spread was calculated at $805.75/mt, S&P Global Platts data showed.
On Thursday, the CFR Japan naphtha benchmark fell $2.50/mt day on day to be assessed at $397.63/mt, while the CFR Northeast Asia ethylene price jumped $20/mt to a four-month high of $1,200/mt, according to Platts data.
The Asian ethylene market started a sharp rebound from mid-August after all the deepsea cargoes -- mainly from the Middle East -- found their final destinations.
Even after all the Middle East cargoes were sold, ethylene end-users in Asia, especially China, continued to seek spot cargoes on the back of bullish ethylene derivatives markets.
