SAMAPCO Temporarily Shutting Down Due to Curtailment of Ethylene Feed

摘要

Jubail-Sahara International Petrochemical Co. (Sipchem) announced it will temporarily shutdown its affiliate, Sahara and Ma'aden Petrochemicals Co. (SAMAPCO), plant because of a planned curtailment of ethylene feedstock by Saudi Ethylene and Polyethylene Co.'s SEPC cracker. Beginning 23 May 2021, SEPC's cracker will be shut down for 27 days. SAMAPCO's plant will shut down for the same period, as its ethylene feedstock is supplied by the SEPC cracker.
