According to market sources, Zhejiang Hengli Petrochemical is ready to launch its Phase II PP plant by end of November 2019, completing both phases of the newly constructed petrochemical complex.
The Phase II PP unit has an annual capacity of 400,000 tons/year and would rely on spot propylene for the trial period while waiting for the new PDH unit to come online.
As reported earlier, Hengli started up the 450,000 tons/year Phase I PP plant in May 2019 and at the moment, spot cargoes from this unit are widely available in the domestic ground. The producer is also offering BOPP cargoes to the Indonesia market, sources said.
Meanwhile, Hengli is also planning a trial run at its 400,000 tons/year HDPE line at the same complex in December 2019.
