Although the overall focus of Shandong civil gas market moved upward in May, the favorable and negative factors of the market in the month were staggered, and the fluctuation was frequent. After May 1 holiday, Shandong civil gas is the first upward trend, manufacturers have been increasing. The main reasons for the rise after the festival are as follows: first, the international crude oil price keeps a small upward trend after the festival, and the news side brings some favorable support to the LPG market. Second, there is a certain demand for replenishment in the downstream after the festival, and the enthusiasm for entering the market is good, and the traffic and transportation are limited during the holiday period. The factory’s delivery atmosphere has been significantly improved during the holiday period, with strong mentality and price increase as the main factor.

The risk of continued decline of butanone in June after the plant started

At the end of May and early June, the main domestic butanone factories started to drive, and the increase in supply was enough to affect the mentality of market people. The worries about the market are also increasing among the butanone carriers, and the current market price of butanone is still at a high level, so most industries have bearish expectations. In addition, the downstream demand is general, after entering June, butanone factories have more inventory pressure. Therefore, the butanone analysts of business society believe that the domestic butanone market in early June is generally weak operation, and some regions have continued to decline risk.
