As reported earlier, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical Co (PetroRabigh) shut one line each at its PP and PE plants early October 2017 for a routine maintenance work. At the moment, market sources reported that the producer has successfully restarted the 350,000 tons/year homo-PP line and might be able to achieve regular production rate soon.
However, the LLDPE unit is now facing a delay to run back by three weeks from initial schedule, drag the offline duration until end of November. The unit has an annual capacity of 600,000 tons/year.
