Russia one of the major supplier has put an halt on supply of dangerous products via train. This includes Methanol as well. Acetic acid exports from Russia have also reduced in this period. The other major manufacturer of Methanol Equinor based in Norway will carry out maintenance in June at its sit based at Tjeldbergodden.
