Industrial C10 Crude Aromatics Market Morning Briefing (2026-09-11)

I. Key Focus Points

1. Crude Oil: There are no signs of easing in the U.S.-Iran conflict, and the Houthi armed forces continue to exert pressure on Saudi Arabia. Supply risks are mounting rather than diminishing, and international oil prices continue to rise. The NYMEX crude oil futures October contract rose by $6.43 to $102.48/barrel, up 6.69% period-on-period; the ICE Brent crude oil futures November contract rose by $6.42 to $107.63/barrel, up 6.34% period-on-period. China's INE crude oil futures 2610 contract rose by 45.9 to 768.4 yuan/barrel, and rose by 47.6 to 816 yuan/barrel in night trading.

Core logic: Crude oil futures closed sharply higher, the downstream high-boiling-point aromatic solvent market is focused on shipments, and the industrial C10 heavy aromatics market is expected to rise.

III. Market Outlook

International oil prices closed sharply higher, boosting bullish sentiment in the market. However, the downstream high-boiling-point aromatic solvent market has risen steadily, and refineries generally have a strong inclination to hold prices firm. It is expected that the industrial C10 heavy aromatics market will show a steady-to-firm trend today.
