DETAILS

New plant will be 520,000 Tonnes of EO per annum.

Operational 2023.

INEOS Oxide has today announced

that it is to double the size of its planned

Ethylene Oxide (EO) and Ethylene Oxide Derivatives (EOD) facility

to be built on the U.S. Gulf Coast.

The new plant will produce 1.2 billion pounds of EO (circa 520kt).

The plant is expected to be operational in 2023.

 In addition to installing its own Ethoxylate derivative capacity on-site

 and infrastructure to supply customers by rail,

 INEOS plans to allow interested third-parties

 to co-locate on site and consume EO by pipeline.

 INEOS is considering several sites on the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Ghislain Decadt,

Operations Director, INEOS Oxide

“Doubling the capacity of our planned

  Ethylene Oxide and Derivatives facility is a significant commitment

 in support our customers and their growth ambitions in the US.

 This build allows us to address

 a fast growing EO merchant market

 as well as our own requirements.

 Combined with our upstream olefins capabilities

 this world class facility will secure our position

 as a reliable and competitive producer.”
