Why is methanol not synthesised from hydrocarbons?

Because it can't be. Larger alcohols can be formed because of the presence of alkene or alkyne bonds; these can be oxidised in a controlled fashion to form the alcohol. Methane, with only one carbon, cannot have such bonds. Any other method of production is inefficient and has such a low yield and purity that it is not worth the time and expense.
