據ICIS網站7月6日消息 亞洲甲基叔丁基醚（MTBE）跌至一個月低點，結束了五周來的上漲勢頭，對該地區供應過剩的擔憂日益加劇。

根據ICIS的數據，在截至7月3日的一周內，MTBE現貨價格已跌至411-429美元/噸（新加坡離岸價）。

相關的封鎖、疲軟的汽油消費和汽油供應量限制了對甲基叔丁基醚的需求，亞太地區也出現了零星的議價。

印尼連續兩個月不供應定期汽油。根據定期合同，其每月平均進口400萬桶汽油。

由于看跌情緒，一些貿易商向新加坡海峽交付的MTBE現貨貨物的價格比新加坡離岸價高出個位數，而此前報告的溢價為每噸11-15美元。

Asia MTBE retreats to one-month low on oversupply fears

Asia’s methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) fell to a one-month low, ending a five-week rally, on growing fears of an oversupply in the region.

In the week ended 3 July, spot MTBE prices have fallen to $411-429/tonne FOB (free on board) Singapore, according to ICIS data.

Coronavirus-related lockdowns, weak gasoline consumption and gasoline supply length curbed demand for MTBE, with sporadic negotiations transpiring in the Asia Pacific.

Indonesia skipped its term gasoline supply for two months. It imports an average of 4m bbl/month of gasoline under a term contract.

Due to bearish sentiment, a few traders delivered spot MTBE cargoes to Singapore Straits traded at single-digit premium over FOB Singapore quotes, on CFR Singapore basis, compared with an $11-15/tonne premium reported earlier.
