2007年中国硫磺进口情况统计分析

Statistics and analysis of China's sulphur import in 2007

对2007年我国硫磺进口情况进行统计和分析。2007年我国进口硫磺9647 kt,同比增长9.5%。加拿大虽然在年末开始紧缩硫磺供应,但仍然是最大的供应国;俄罗斯和伊朗的供应量大幅增加。由于货源紧缺及海运费上涨等原因,硫磺价格从2006年底的每吨几十美元飚升至2007年底的每吨600美元左右。估计到2010国际硫磺市场将逐渐恢复平衡并将出现较长时期的供给过剩局面。

Statistics and analysis of China's sulphur import in 2007 are conducted. China's imported sulphur amounted to 9 647 kt, an increase of 9. 6% on a year-on-year basis. Canada, although starting to cut down its supply at the end of the year, remained to be the largest supplier. Sulphur imported from Russia and Iran increased remarkably. Due to short supply and high shipping rate, sulphur price rose sharply to about $ 600/t at the end of 2007. It is predicted that international sulphur market will return to balance in 2010 and then a rather long period of oversupply will begin.
