Chinese BR (butadiene rubber) ex-work price through September at RMB12,700-13,000/mt, gain 0-300 yuan/mt.

BR unit front September: Jinzhou Petrochem, Fuxiang Petrochem, Baling Petrochem, Huamao, Gaoqiao Petrochem still offline; Dushanzi 30,000mt/a BR unit restart to 100% operation on 16th September since shutdown from 10th July; TSRC UBE Nantong)’s 72,000mt/a BR unit restarted from 19th September.
Ecprams Tips: new heard Jinzhou Petrochem’s 30,000mt/a BR unit plan to start in October; Haopu New Material Co.’s 60,000mt/a BR unit plan to start operation later.

Assessment of market demand volume for butadiene 2016-2017

Ecprams report, Chinese plants’ production schedule in September was to produce  65,200mt butadiene rubber (BR), 64,300mt SBS,and 92,100mt styrene butadiene rubber (SBR).SBR dry rubber’s scheduled output volume lessened by 5000mt from August while oil rubber had 6000mt more. Therefore, the demand volume for butadiene (BD) is estimated 9.66% decrease from August.
 Butadiene rubber unit dynamics:
Shenhua Ningmei’s 64,000mt/a butadiene unit proceeded trail operation before shutdown.
Sierbang’s 100,000mt/a oxide de-hydro unit was fed with raw materials at early September, then operate normally.
Lanxing’s 50,000mt/a extraction unit put off its launch-into-production plan to October.
