據(jù)MRCHUB網(wǎng)站7月26日莫斯科報(bào)道，南非大型能源化工公司薩索爾(Sasol)近日表示，由于市場(chǎng)產(chǎn)品價(jià)格下跌，其化學(xué)品銷售額在2023財(cái)年下降，預(yù)計(jì)2024財(cái)年價(jià)格和需求將繼續(xù)波動(dòng)。

這家南非能源和化學(xué)品集團(tuán)表示，到6月30日為止的財(cái)年（2022/2023年），化學(xué)品銷售收入從2022財(cái)年的105.5億美元降至89.9億美元，由于價(jià)格下跌抵消了銷量的小幅增長(zhǎng)。

由于需求下降，今年化學(xué)產(chǎn)品的平均銷售價(jià)格從一年前的每噸1656美元降至每噸1465美元。該公司表示，這與原料和能源成本的增加一起，繼續(xù)給整體單位利潤(rùn)率和盈利能力帶來(lái)下行壓力。該公司在非洲、美洲和歐亞大陸的三個(gè)化工區(qū)域的銷售額均在公司的指導(dǎo)范圍內(nèi)。由于非洲和美洲的生產(chǎn)和供應(yīng)鏈表現(xiàn)有所改善，第四季度的銷量環(huán)比增長(zhǎng)了5%，而歐洲的需求仍然疲軟。

展望未來(lái)，由于全球市場(chǎng)和石化市場(chǎng)的不確定性，該公司預(yù)計(jì)2024財(cái)年的價(jià)格和需求將繼續(xù)波動(dòng)。

沙索計(jì)劃于8月23日公布其2023財(cái)年業(yè)績(jī)。

Sasol fiscal year 2023 chemical sales fell on lower prices

Sasol said that its chemical sales fell in fiscal 2023 due to lower prices, and that it expects continued pricing and demand volatility in fiscal 2024.

The South African energy and chemicals group said chemicals sales revenue fell to USD8.99 billion in the fiscal year ended June 30, from USD10.55 billion in fiscal 2022, on lower prices offsetting slightly higher sales volumes.

Average sales basket price decreased in the year to USD1,465 a ton from USD1,656 a ton a year prior due to lower demand. This, together with increased feedstock and energy costs, continue to put downward pressure on overall unit margins and profitability, the company said.

All three of its chemical regional segments——Africa, America, Eurasia——achieved sales volumes within the company's guidance ranges. Fourth-quarter sales volumes increased 5% sequentially, with improved production and supply-chain performance in Africa and America, while demand in Europe remained weak.

Looking ahead, the company sees continued pricing and demand volatility in fiscal 2024, with uncertain sentiment in the global market and petrochemical markets.

Sasol plans to publish its fiscal 2023 results on Aug. 23.
