In May, the price of dimethyl ether continued to rise. According to the annual comparison chart of dimethyl ether price of business community, it can be seen that the current dimethyl ether Market in Henan is at a relatively high point. Compared with the previous two years, the price is higher than that of the same period. At present, the price in all regions of China has risen to more than 4000 yuan / ton.

Although the market price of dimethyl ether is still rising, the increase is obviously narrower than that in the earlier period. With the continuous consumption of the positive in the early stage, dimethyl ether rose to a relatively high level, but the ability of the lower reaches to accept the high price was limited, their attitude was more cautious, and their enthusiasm for entering the market was weakened. And in terms of demand, the rising weather temperature and the limited terminal consumption capacity have brought obvious constraints to the market. Looking at the cost of methanol market, because the early rise of raw materials is good, but the recent methanol market in some parts of the market has come down, the domestic market rise and fall are different, which brings limited benefits to the dimethyl ether Market, so the rise of dimethyl ether is narrower than that in the early stage.

The cost of methanol market is mixed. Shandong methanol Lubei market 2580 yuan / ton to cash. The methanol market in the southern part of Shandong negotiated to 2720 yuan / ton, and the nearby factory withdraws cash. Linyi receives the local goods to negotiate the price to 2680-2700 yuan / ton and deliver them to the spot exchange, while the logistics goods offer the price to 2600-2630 yuan / ton and deliver them to the spot exchange. The turnover of methanol market in central Shandong was 2600-2610 yuan / ton, which was delivered to cash. The market turnover was light and the negotiation atmosphere was cautious. The methanol market in Henan was narrow and low, and the trading was deadlocked. The bidding transaction price of Henan’s main enterprises was 2570 yuan / ton, which was 30-35 yuan / ton lower than that of May 17; Other enterprises offer lower, reference price 2630-2640 yuan / ton, factory cash; Luoyang market offer reference 2630 yuan / ton can spot exchange. The methanol market in the two lakes area was higher, and the buying was more wait-and-see. Hubei Main enterprises offer up, other enterprises offer stable, ex factory reference 2750-2800 yuan / ton factory withdrawal spot exchange; Hunan market offer reference 2920-2960 yuan / ton to spot exchange.

At present, although the raw material methanol market is somewhat loose, the current price is still strong, and the favorable effects on the market still exist. LPG civil market in the international crude oil rose slightly under the favorable market has warmed up. On the supply side, the dimethyl ether market still maintains low load operation, with low supply supporting high price. It is expected that the price of dimethyl ether will be strong in the short term. However, negative factors still exist. As the weather temperature rises and the off-season is coming, the dimethyl ether Market is expected to weaken in the long term.
