Overview
FGE’s Naphtha Monthly report dissects and examines the volatile short-term market for naphtha, delivering clarity and insights into the forward market.
The naphtha trading market has become increasingly unpredictable due to various unexpected developments since 2020, e.g. the COVID-19 pandemic,: Storm Uri on the US Gulf Coast in early 2021, and, more recently, the Russia- Ukraine war, to name but a few.
FGE’s Naphtha Monthly utilises a country-level, bottomup approach to develop a regional understanding of global supply and demand market dynamics. Our in-depth models integrate price-elastic demand areas such as steam cracking with our in-house view of price spreads and how these will affect swing cracking, splitting and import requirements.
FGE’s Naphtha Monthly looks at global naphtha markets from an Asian perspective. The report focuses on the merchant market, and uniquely looks to balance naphtha by grade.
The service includes a monthly PDF report, supporting datafiles, as well as access to FGE’s naphtha experts.
