Chempricehub Alert: Oman's Methanol Plant Operating Steadily

Published on 2026-01-03

December 29th News
Summary of Methanol Plant Operations in Oman on December 29th:
Oman OMC-Sohar's 1.1 million tons/year methanol plant is operating normally.
Oman SMC's 1.3 million tons/year methanol plant continues to run stably.

Chempricehub's Analysis of Methanol, Bull-Bear Score: -1
The article indicates that both Oman OMC-Sohar and SMC methanol plants are operating normally, with a combined annual capacity of 2.4 million tons, ensuring stable supply without interruption risks. This may lead to ample supply in the spot market, while demand has not shown significant growth, potentially putting downward pressure on prices.

Combined with methanol MA futures data (e.g., the 2609 contract closing at 2,147 yuan/ton, down 8 yuan; the 2605 contract closing at 2,161 yuan/ton, down 19 yuan), recent prices have generally declined. Changes in open interest and trading volume suggest bearish market sentiment. Stable supply may reinforce the downward trend, exerting a bearish impact on futures prices.

The overall score is -1, indicating a generally bearish outlook.
