NEW DELHI: Asia’s naphtha crack surged to over seven-year high on Thursday, on hopes of firm demand from petrochemical units, while the prompt inter-month spread widened in backwardation to $6 a tonne.

The refining profit margin climbed to $152.20 per tonne, the highest since July 2014, from $146.43 in the last session.
