The hottest methanol enterprises call for more ant

Methanol enterprises call for more anti-dumping efforts on November 15, a report on the preliminary determination opinions of methanol anti-dumping case was officially submitted to the Ministry of Commerce of China, which is the overall evaluation of the preliminary determination results of methanol anti-dumping case by China Nitrogen Fertilizer Industry Association on behalf of the national methanol enterprises

the report points out that the preliminary determination result of the methanol anti-dumping case released by the Ministry of Commerce on October 25 is quite different from the result calculated by the applicant based on the information obtained. The result is not only difficult to effectively protect China's methanol and related industries, but also connives at Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries to increase their efforts to dump methanol on China, which will cause greater damage to China's methanol and related industries. In the opinion of the above-mentioned persons, the investigating authority is kindly requested to further verify the relevant materials of the respondent enterprises and levy anti-dumping duties according to the actual dumping margin in the final decision. It also requested the Ministry of Commerce to make representations to the governments of Iran, Saudi Arabia, Oman and other Middle Eastern countries as soon as possible, requiring them to urge their respective methanol enterprises to regulate their exports to China and stop dumping against China, so as to protect China's methanol enterprises from the damage of imported methanol dumping

it is understood that on June 24, 2009, at the application of 14 methanol enterprises including Shanghai Coking Co., Ltd. and Inner Mongolia Yuanxing Energy Co., Ltd., the Ministry of Commerce of China launched an anti-dumping investigation on imported methanol originating from Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand and Saudi Arabia. On October 25 this year, the Ministry of Commerce issued announcement No. 71 of 2010, making a preliminary determination on the methanol anti-dumping investigation, and determining that the methanol products exported by relevant companies from Indonesia, Malaysia and New Zealand to China were dumped. It is decided to impose import tariff of 9.3%~37.5% on imported methanol originating from the above-mentioned countries from October 28, 2010. At the same time, it ruled that there was no dumping of imported methanol originating in Saudi Arabia, and the anti-dumping investigation was terminated

the preliminary determination of anti-dumping made the domestic methanol enterprises look forward to it again and again, but the result disappointed them greatly. Representatives of 16 methanol enterprises gathered in Beijing on November 12. They hoped to reflect their opinions and voices to the Ministry of commerce through the China Nitrogen Fertilizer Industry Association, and requested the Ministry of Commerce to re investigate and verify, and give a final verdict on the methanol anti-dumping case that is consistent with the facts and satisfactory to the enterprises

"Saudi Arabia, which exports a large amount of methanol to China, was ruled as' no dumping ', while the companies that mainly export methanol to China, such as East Kalimantan Methanol Industry Co., Ltd., Malaysia National Oil Company Labuan methanol company and masanis New Zealand Co., Ltd., from Indonesia, Malaysia and New Zealand, were only ruled with a dumping margin of 9.3% to 9.5%, which is consistent with the serious dumping suffered by Chinese methanol enterprises If the damage is inconsistent, it is more difficult to effectively protect China's methanol industry. " Said wangdonggang, deputy general manager of Inner Mongolia Yuanxing Energy Co., Ltd

as a new type of material, the general manager of Shaanxi Yulin Natural Gas Chemical Co., Ltd. is hukepeng, the economist, and ouxiaoming, the deputy general manager of Zhejiang Jinju Chemical Co., Ltd., as well as Shanghai Coking Co., Ltd., Yankuang Group coal chemical branch, Anhui Linquan Chemical Co., Ltd., China coal Heilongjiang coal chemical (Group) Co., Ltd., Hebei Zhengyuan Chemical Group Co., Ltd Representatives of CNOOC Tianye Chemical Co., Ltd. also agreed

the statistics of China nitrogen fertilizer industry association show that from January to September this year, China imported 3.78 million tons of methanol, and the total amount of methanol imported from Malaysia, Indonesia and New Zealand accounted for 11%. In the same period, Saudi Arabia exported 480000 tons of methanol to China, accounting for 13% of China's total methanol imports; Iran and Oman's methanol exports to China increased by 148.9% and 27.3% year-on-year respectively. From January to September, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Oman alone exported more than 2.49 million tons of methanol to China, accounting for 66% of the total imported methanol

"Obviously, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Oman are the main countries dumping methanol to China. The three countries mentioned above do not carry out anti-dumping investigation, and it is also ruled that the methanol dumping margin of Malaysia, Indonesia and New Zealand is very low. Such a preliminary finding not only makes it difficult to effectively protect China's methanol and related industries, but also connives at Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries to increase their efforts to dump methanol to China, which will It has caused incalculable damage to China's methanol and related industries. " LiShaoChun, Vice Minister of the transportation, marketing and marketing department of Shaanxi Weihua group, said with concern

jinxiaogui, director of the office of China nitrogenous fertilizer industry association, said: affected by the dumping of imported methanol, China's methanol enterprises had made a comprehensive loss last year. From January to September this year, the loss of the methanol industry was still as high as 60.6%. The nitrogenous fertilizer industry closely related to the methanol industry is also affected, and the profit margin of industrial assets is only 0.6%. If the methanol anti-dumping case eventually needs to go through the formalities for revoking the production license of industrial products immediately and the preliminary determination result is maintained, it will be difficult to contain the impact of low-cost imported methanol on domestic methanol enterprises. Saudi Arabia, Iran and Oman have strong 60 year old Erdogan, who has repeatedly expressed his methanol production and export capacity in the election campaign, and has always regarded China as the most important export market. If they do not flexibly use WTO rules to restrict their exports, it will seriously affect China's methanol and related industries

jinxiaogui also worried that due to the large number of methanol enterprises in China, once the methanol industry is impacted, it will affect the healthy development of China's fertilizer industry, and then affect the stable supply of fertilizer, the healthy development of agriculture and food security

she hopes that the investigating authority can further verify the relevant materials of the respondent enterprises, and determine and levy anti-dumping duties according to their actual dumping margins in the final decision. She also hopes that under the guidance of the Ministry of Commerce, the domestic methanol industry will carry out negotiations and consultations with Iran, Saudi Arabia, Oman and other Middle Eastern countries as soon as possible. By establishing a long-term communication and consultation mechanism, regularly exchange information on the methanol industry at home and abroad, strengthen communication and cooperation, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results in the methanol industry of all parties
