Highlights:
The output loss of PP caused by unit shutdown was around 121.7kt this week, up
4.5kt WOW. According to SCI’s research, the output loss caused by maintenance
will probably decrease by 0.99% WOW to 120.5kt next week.
China’s
weekly PP output and operating rates both went up this week. The output loss of
PP caused by unit shutdown climbed by 4.5kt WOW to 121.7kt. Some producers such
as Xuzhou Haitian Petrochemical and Shandong Yulong Petrochemical shut units
down for maintenance. Some producers such as JINNENG Chemical (Qingdao) and
Sinopec-SK (Wuhan) Petrochemical restarted their units.

Remarks: RS = restart,
SD = shutdown
Methodology: The output
loss above refers to the affected output due to maintenance at producers during
the week with a sample coverage rate of 100%. It is calculated via multiplying
daily output by maintenance days.
China’s PP
supply will probably go up amid fewer unit turnarounds. There may be limited
new arrangements for unit maintenance in the short run, and some closed units
will be restarted gradually, pushing up the overall PP supply. The output loss
caused by maintenance will probably decrease by 0.99% WOW to 120.5kt
next week.
