According to market sources, PTT Global Chemical (PTTGC) might start up the newly constructed cracker in Map Ta Phut, Thailand this December. The company kickstarted the project in early 2018 as part of PTTGC’s $4.5 billion projects to “retrofit” its Map Ta Phut site.
The new cracker operates on flexible feeds, primarily to utilize the surplus naphtha from its refinery. The unit has an annual capacity of 500,000 tons/year of ethylene and 261,000 tons/year of propylene.
