Surge in prices continues vianew sales of FSU tonnage

摘要

The surge in the ammonia market continued after a briefrespite earlier in the week that was entirely due to severelimitations in availability rather than a lack of buying interest.Reflecting the tight market, NF Trading secured a $20/mtpremium on prior deals in a September 15 sale to a majortrader of 23,000 mt for early October loading at $575/mt FOB.The destination for the parcel was unknown at press time, butbuying interest was evident from a number of endusers.October tonnage from the Baltic was likely priced around$20/mt higher, but exact details on a deal between Sibur andTrammo were not available at press time.
