據(jù)普氏能源資訊1月5日休斯敦報道,美國現(xiàn)貨甲苯價格在周四(5日)達(dá)到了17個月高位的每加侖2.44美元(741.76美元/噸)FOB美國墨西哥灣沿岸。
根據(jù)標(biāo)普全球普氏能源資訊的統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù),美國甲苯定價自2015年8月10日以來還沒有見過如此高位。
消息人士說,由于供應(yīng)有限以及樂觀預(yù)測更多甲苯將被汽油吸收來提高辛烷值,美國的甲苯定價在去年12月期間達(dá)到了16個月高位的每加侖2.41美元。
由于美國汽油中的硫含量必須從30ppm減少到10ppm,這將導(dǎo)致辛烷短缺并將需要更多的甲苯來滿足這種短缺。
消息人士說,這些已持續(xù)的相同動態(tài)把甲苯定價推高到了17個月高位。

US spot toluene assessed at 17-month high on limited supply
Houston (Platts)--5 Jan 2017
US spot toluene was assessed Thursday at a 17-month high at $2.44/gal ($741.76/mt) FOB US Gulf Coast.
US toluene pricing hasnt been seen higher since August 10, 2015, based on S&P Global Platts data.
Toluene pricing saw a 16-month high during December at $2.41/gal because of limited supply and bullish expectations for more toluene to be absorbed by gasoline to boost octane, sources said.
Because sulfur content in gasoline would have to be reduced to 10 ppm from 30 ppm, there would be an octane shortage and more toluene would be needed to satisfy that shortage.
These same dynamics have persisted, sources said, pushing toluene pricing to the 17-month high.
