Total Petrochemicals' La Porte, Texas, production unit lines running well: letter

Increase font size  Decrease font size Date:2021-04-02   Views:282
US polymer producer Total Petrochemicals & Refining USA's production unit at La Porte, Texas, has all its polypropylene lines running well, and the company hopes the unit will be back to business as usual in June, according to a letter Total sent to its customers March 30.

"We are pleased to report that all lines are running well, and we are making very good progress to get back to a normal production wheel," the letter seen by S&P Global Platts read.
The company said it had communicated supply allotments for April and May to customers.

Total said last week that the three largest lines returned to production the week of March 8, and of the remaining two large lines, one restarted March 16 and the other restarted March 20.

The complex was under force majeure for polypropylene products since cold weather disruptions in February halted several petrochemical plants along the US Gulf Coast.

The plant has nameplate capacity totaling 1.15 million mt/year of polypropylene, according to S&P Global Platts Analytics data.

The company was not available for immediate comment March 31.

Platts last assessed the co-polymer grade at $2,745-$2,767/mt on March 24, down $22 on the week, with the premium to homopolymer grades talked at 2 cents. Export homopolymer injection-grade polypropylene was stable on the day March 30 at $2,690-$2,712/mt FAS Houston.
