ACC：2月美國(guó)化學(xué)品產(chǎn)量下降0.2%

據(jù)油氣新聞3月25日消息稱，根據(jù)美國(guó)化學(xué)委員會(huì)(ACC)的一份新報(bào)告，2020年2月，美國(guó)的化學(xué)產(chǎn)品產(chǎn)量下降了0.2%。

2019年12月下降0.2%，2020年1月上升0.1%。

今年2月，除墨西哥灣沿岸外，美國(guó)各地的化學(xué)品產(chǎn)量都有所下降。

美國(guó)化學(xué)品生產(chǎn)區(qū)域指數(shù)顯示，這三個(gè)月的化學(xué)品生產(chǎn)情況喜憂參半。

有機(jī)化學(xué)品、塑料樹(shù)脂、氯堿、其他無(wú)機(jī)化學(xué)品、其他特殊化學(xué)品、合成橡膠和人造纖維的3個(gè)月移動(dòng)平均產(chǎn)量趨勢(shì)有所增加。

這些增長(zhǎng)被工業(yè)氣體、涂料、粘合劑、肥料、合成染料和顏料、作物保護(hù)化學(xué)品和消費(fèi)品產(chǎn)量的下降所抵消。

報(bào)告說(shuō)，美國(guó)2月份制造業(yè)活動(dòng)持平。制造業(yè)活動(dòng)是化學(xué)生產(chǎn)的一個(gè)強(qiáng)有力的指標(biāo)。

報(bào)告稱，美國(guó)化學(xué)產(chǎn)品產(chǎn)量較2019年2月下降1.8%，連續(xù)第九個(gè)月同比下降。

US chemical production dropped 0.2% in February: ACC

U.S. chemical production dipped by 0.2% in February 2020, according to a new report from the American Chemistry Council (ACC).

That follows a 0.2% drop in December 2019 and a 0.1% increase in January 2020, it said.

In February, chemical production dipped across the United States except along the Gulf Coast, it said.

The U.S. Chemical Production Regional Index said chemical production over the three months was mixed.

There were gains in the three-month moving average output trend of organic chemicals, plastic resins, chlor-alkali, other inorganic chemicals, other specialty chemicals, synthetic rubber and manufactured fibers.

Those gains were offset by declines in the output of industrial gases, coatings, adhesives, fertilizers, synthetic dyes and pigments, crop protection chemicals and consumer products.

The report said manufacturing activity in the U.S. was flat in February. Manufacturing activity is a strong indicator for chemical production.

U.S. chemical production declined 1.8% from February 2019, the ninth consecutive month of year-over-year declines, it said.
