Kallanish （开阑商务信息咨询）报道，在地区和国际废钢价格大幅上涨的情况下，菲律宾方坯进口市场在上周飙升。新的方坯进口报价似乎有限。

ThePhilippine billet import market shot up during the last week amid the sharpuptick in regional and international scrap prices, Kallanish notes.Fresh offers for billet imports appear to be limited.

11 月 18 日，一批 2 月船期的 2.3 万吨俄罗斯 125mm 方坯货物以 480 美元 / 吨 cfr 马尼拉成交。“这个价格不错，”一位马尼拉贸易商说。他补充说，其他报价高出 10 美元 / 吨左右。 11 月 5/6 日左右，同一家俄罗斯钢厂的成交价为 452 美元 / 吨 cfr 。

A23,000-tonne cargo of Russian 125mm billet for February shipment was booked at$480/tonne cfr Manila on 18 November. "It is a good buy," says aManila trader. He adds that other offers arearound $10/t higher. A booking from the same Russianmill took place at $452/t cfr around 5/6 November.

日本电弧炉方坯 1 月船期报价为 488 美元 / 吨 cfr 马尼拉，黑海方坯 2 月船期报价为 489 美元 / 吨 cfr ，越南感应炉方坯报价为 490-497 美元 / 吨 cfr 马尼拉。

An offer forJapanese EAF billet for January shipment is currently priced at $488/t cfrManila, as well as Black Sea billet for February shipment at $489/t cfr.Induction furnace billet from Vietnam is tagged at $490-497/t cfr Manila.

周五， Kallanish 评估的 5sp/ps 或 Q275 120/125/130mm 方坯价格升至 480-485 美元 / 吨 cfr 马尼拉，较前一周上涨 20 美元 / 吨。

On Friday,Kallanish raised its 5sp/ps or Q275 120/125/130mm square billetassessment to $480-485/t cfr Manila, up $20/t on-week.

一些贸易人士指出，最近几周，中国对方坯的进口购买兴趣似乎有所减弱。对水淬螺纹钢的严厉打击似乎抑制了对 3sp 或 4sp 基本级方坯的进口购买兴趣。一位地区贸易商称，当局正在唐山等地区采取行动。他说，这导致人们对“……交易稀少”的高锰方坯产生更多兴趣。中国买家有意购买 20MnSi 级方坯或加钒方坯。

In China,import buying interest for billet seems to have slackened in recent weeks, sometrading sources note. A clampdown on water-quenched rebar appears to havedampened import buying interest for the 3sp or 4sp basic gradebillet. Authorities are taking action in areas such as Tangshan, a regionaltrader says. This has led to more interest for high-manganese content billet of"…which deals are scarce," he says. Chinese buyers areinterested in 20MnSi grade billet or vanadium-added billet.

一位中国贸易商指出，由于中国政府禁止水淬 q235 （相当于 3sp 级）钢材，购买兴趣已经转移到锰含量最低 1.1% 的方坯。另一位地区贸易商称，进口（基本级）方坯仍可用于制作盘条或其他非螺纹钢应用。水淬工艺用于提高钢材的抗拉强度。

A Chinesetrader notes that buying interest has shifted to minimum 1.1% Mn billet because the water-cooling of q235 (equivalent to 3sp grade) is forbidden by the Chinese government. Imported (basic grade) billet maystill be used for making wire rod or for other non-rebar applications, another regional trader says. The water-quenching process is used to increase thetensile strength of steel.
