Recent data from Chinese customs reveals a complex landscape for the nation’s downstream sector. Total refined product exports in November reached 5.12 million tons, marking a 13.3% increase from October despite a slight 2.2% year-on-year decline. For the first eleven months of 2025, cumulative exports have contracted by 3.2% to 52.65 million tons.
Market performance remains bifurcated across product lines. Jet fuel continues to lead growth, with November exports surging 53.6% to 2.43 million tons. Conversely, gasoline exports plummeted 51.7% in November, reflecting a broader 16% year-to-date decline. On the processing side, refinery throughput remains robust. November runs averaged 14.86 million barrels daily, a 39% increase over 2024 levels, even as maintenance sidelined 1.2 million barrels of daily capacity. These figures underscore China’s strategic pivot toward high-demand middle distillates while navigating fluctuating global gasoline requirements and aggressive crude stockpiling.
