Opportunities

  • Changes in the Chinese government’s domestic oil pricing policy: At present, downstream petrochemical companies in China purchase crude oil at world market prices and sell refined products (such as gasoline and diesel oil) at domestic market prices which are set by the Chinese government. Following China’s ascension to the World Trade Organisation, the Chinese government is expected to establish a more market-oriented pricing mechanism.
