摘要

Singapore — South Korea’s benzene exports plunged 14% from March to 128,232 mt in April, customs data released Friday showed. This was primarily due to the closed Asia- US benzene arbitrage since late January. The US benzene arbitrage is still shut on paper, with the Asia-US benzene spread at minus $50/mt Tuesday and freight from Asia to the US estimated at $62-67/mt.
