需求疲软 美国燃料乙醇价格创新低

中国石化新闻网讯 据ICIS网站4月1日消息 因美国国内采取更多管控措施，美国燃料乙醇价格本周继续大幅下跌，创下又一个历史新低。

芝加哥中心基准价格目前被评估为0.80-0.81美元/加仑，创下历史新低。

一些燃料乙醇生产商继续转向工业生产，甚至包括在新的食品和药物管理局豁免下通常不允许这样做的生产商。

夏季驾车季节似乎越来越不可能出现，从而进一步阻碍了需求。燃料乙醇的需求旺季为夏季。

随着越来越多的美国公民接受国内订单，燃料乙醇需求现在减少了一半。

在过去的三周里，没有乙醇的进口，创造了又一个记录。

由于对汽油的需求很少，炼油厂乙醇的投入继续大幅下降。

Fuel ethanol demand is now halved as more US citizens are under stay-at-home orders.

There have been no imports of ethanol for the past three weeks, setting yet another record.

Refiner ethanol input continues to fall drastically, as there is little demand for gasoline
