Turnaround to be brought ahead of schedule at HDPE plant of KPIC - Mar 7, 2011 [13:05]
An industry source based in South Korea informed a polymerupdate team member that a maintenance turnaround at an HDPE plant operated by Korea Petrochemical Industry Company (KPIC), South Korea is likely to be undertaken ahead of schedule.
The source said, "the plant is planned to be taken offstream for a maintenance turnaround in early April 2011. The shutdown will remain in force for around one month. The shutdown of the HDPE plant will coincide with the shutdown of a cracker at the same location.
It has an ethylene production capacity of 470,000 mt/year and a propylene production capacity of 350,000 mt/year and is set to undergo a maintenance turnaround in early April for around one month.”
The source added, “located at Onsan, South Korea, the HDPE plant has an output capacity of 530,000 mt/year. The plant was originally scheduled to undergo a maintenance turnaround towards the end of May 2011.“

While in conversation with a polymerupdate team member last evening, a trader spoke on buying trends and ruling prices of PP, PE and PVC in the open markets of Delhi.
The trader said, " there were some inquiries seen generated in PP & PE in Delhi’s open markets today. Prices were driven higher in these grades. Bullish pricing trends in upstream propylene and ethylene coupled with strong prices of PP and PE in the rest of Asia are helping improve the buying mood across the Indian subcontinent."
The trader said, "HMHDPE prices in Delhi's open markets were quoting higher at Rs.78/kg to Rs.78.50/kg levels while HDPE raffia was pegged at Rs.75/kg levels. HDPE injection was heard at Rs.74/kg levels. HD Blowmoulding was higher at Rs.75/kg to Rs.75.50/kglevels. LLDPE film was available at Rs.78/kg levels."
He added, " ethylene based PVC was at Rs.52.5/kg to Rs.53/kg levels. LDPE film was at Rs.78/kg levels."
He said, "PP raffia was pegged higher at Rs.68.50/kg to Rs.69/kg levels. PP film prices was upward at Rs.74/kg levels while PP injection was higher at Rs.68/kg to Rs.69/kg levels."
