The movement of physical rubber prices is also sensitive to the sentiments in regional rubber futures markets, namely TOCOM and Shanghai Rubber Futures, the
ANRPC said.
The
ANRPC report says physical prices of NR are increasingly dominated by sentiments in Shanghai and TOCOM futures which are vulnerable to fluctuations in currencies, crude oil prices and geo-political developments.
ANRPC Chairman Ahmed Abou Rouh said the project targets an increase in high octane gasoline, by establishing an additional unit to reform and improve catalytic naphtha.
The
ANRPC said the NR market has not been able to gain considerable strength from the near zero growth in supply due to the dominant influence of a weak demand outlook, low crude oil prices and weak currencies in major NR-exporting countries.
He added that Alexandria Minerals Oil Co (AMOC), which produces essential oils and petroleum candles, and Alexandria National Refining and Petrochemicals Co (
ANRPC), which specialises in producing high-quality motor gasoline, work under the investment law.
