Market sources reported that Chandra Asri Petrochemical has lifted operation rate at its newly expanded naphtha based cracker to 100% early this week after several months of running at reduced rate due to technical issues.

Located in Cilegon, Banten province, the cracker is able to produce 860,000t/year of ethylene, 470,000t/year of propylene and 100,000t/year of butadiene. Market is expecting higher PP and PE output from the producer in the near term given more sufficient upstream supply.
