March 06 News: It is reported that Sabic's 4.8 million tons/year methanol plant may operate below capacity, and subsequent operational dynamics will continue to be monitored. Chempricehub's analysis of methanol shows a long-short score of 1.5. Sabic's 4.8 million tons/year methanol plant operating below capacity could lead to a reduction in global methanol supply by approximately 3%-5%, which constitutes a significant positive factor for spot prices. Combined with the methanol MA2605 futures contract (settlement price of 2,527 yuan/ton, open interest decreased by 100,167 lots), expectations of supply contraction may reverse the current downtrend and drive a rebound in futures prices.
