The global Aluminium consumption grows strongly and can basically digest the increased output: the global Aluminium consumption in 2006 was higher than the expectation again with the increase of 8.0%, and the gap between supply and demand was 490 thousand tons. And China was still the most important driver in the global Aluminium consumption growth with the growth rate of 22.6%. The increase of consumption in China is reflected by the fields like construction, electric power and transportation and so on.
In is predicted that there will be only small surplus of primary Aluminium in the world in 2007 and 2008: about 390 and 110 thousand tons, which means the increase of global Aluminium inventories will be quite limited in future two years. At present, the period that the global Aluminium inventories can be supplied to consumption is just 5.9 weeks, which is far lower than the average level of 9.3 weeks in the past 30 years. And once the consumption growth surpasses the expectation, the inventories will be reduced furthermore and shape a great support to Aluminium price. In the future two years, the decrease rate of the Aluminium oxide price will be quite limited and it is hard to fall below 3000 Yuan/Ton in 2007. Along with the increase of the output of China Aluminium oxide, the dependency on import Aluminium ores has been pricked up drastically; it is predicted that the external dependency in 2008 will be increased to 47.3%. And at present, the imported Aluminium ores in China are mainly from Indonesia. 1. Analysis on Prospect of Global Aluminium Consumption
