LONDON (ICIS news)--LyondellBasell has declared force majeure on polypropylene (PP) from its joint venture Basell
Orlen Polyolefins (BOP) 400,000 tonne/year plant in Plock, Poland, market
sources said on Wednesday.
In a statement, the company said that “as a result of unforeseable technical
production problems due to low polymerisation” in the Plock PP
plant, it was unable to supply PP
grades from Plock.
The company gave no time frame as to how long the restrictions would remain
in place but assured customers that it was analysing the root causes of the
situation to be able to restore normal supply as soon as possible.
This news came as a blow to some PP
buyers who were already under force majeure restrictions from Total
Petrochemicals.
