This week, the national industrial cracking C5 weekly production saw a slight increase compared to the previous week, with a growth rate of 1.94%.

This week, Sinopec Yangzi Petrochemical commenced a maintenance shutdown on May 13, which is planned to last for 55 days until early July. However, due to previously low operating rates, the impact on production was limited. Meanwhile, some enterprises recorded increased production this week, citing adjustments in ethylene cracking feedstock. Under the "oil-to-chemicals" transition, the cracking C5 yield has seen a certain degree of improvement.

Currently, the weekly production level is at the initial level seen after the period of heightened tensions in the Middle East, specifically the weekly production level from March 5 to March 12.

In addition, from late May to June, there will be maintenance shutdowns for three ethylene plants. Among them, Hainan Refining & Chemical plans to shut down for approximately 120 days starting in June. Sinopec-SK (Wuhan) Petrochemical is scheduled for maintenance on June 5. At the same time, affected by losses from high crude oil prices, it is possible that integrated refining and petrochemical enterprises may also reduce production beyond planned maintenance shutdowns.
