WTI and Brent crude oil prices both rose above the $70 mark, which is good for the market mentality.

According to SunSirs data, as of June 11, the price of MTBE was 6150 RMB/ton, up 3.65% month on month and 53.11% year on year.

MTBE market rose this week compared with last week, with an increase of about 50-300 RMB/ton. In Shandong Province, the recent inflow of goods from Northeast China is limited, and the export sales of main refineries in Shandong Province are limited. In addition, some downstream refineries purchase moderately, and the merchants actively push up the price, so the price rises to 6000 RMB/ton again. Supported by the sustained rise of Shandong, North China and Northeast China actively followed the rise. The southern market, boosted by the continued rise of the northern market, saw a slight rise in business.
