摘要

HOUSTON (ICIS)--In the US urea market, New Orleans (Nola) barge activity was quiet as buyers and sellers continue to be disengaged amid limited supply at hand, with more of the focus turned towards the paper markets. With the lack of business prevailing, uncertainly over when the market will see renewed activity continues to gain ground with expectations firming that September will continue to be a slow month, following the sharp increase in prices so far this quarter.
