“Not really. They’ve sold all they can produce until Christmas according to George Useless.”

We’ll just have to import it then like we do with everything else
Manufacturers of Imported AN arent interested in trading into the UK, with Russian sanctions they are keeping it for their own use. as has been said a few times, everyone better start to come round to the fact that 2023 is going to be very heavy on urea usage as it is more than 25% cheaper per unit of N.

Where in the world is Urea dearer now than the UK?
Genuine question to those who trade it.
Last week I was quoted £785/t stabilised straight urea 736 but 40N10 sulphur, MOP 750 . Its a long long time until spring at those prices to tie up alot of money, ok if prices go up further it may be a good buy......... or not. Many other variables and uncertainty.

You only have to look at the cereal and oilseed prices the
last few days to see what happens when the wheel comes off.
If the cereal prices fall much further there will be demand destruction
and the urea price will plummet.

Distributor might sell it elsewhere while en route.
trader might; distributor doesn't have the option as they are the typically the receiver at destination

however, the trader would still have the contractual obligation to execute their contract if they diverted elsewhere. UK is the highest paying market today simply because the logistics bringing it here are the highest too. The port costs here are astronomical compared to our neighbouring countries. The netbacks to loading ports are rather similar.

there's a high level of certainty that if it's booked, it'll get shipped. Of course there are exceptions and especially for those parties knowingly importing sanctioned origins, Iran for example.

Caveat emptor.
