(Reuters) -- Royal Dutch Shell's new
800,000 tpa ethylene cracker in Singapore has resumed operations,
after a brief disruption caused by a compressor trip. It remains unclear if the
plant, which flared on Tuesday, was partially or completely shut, but it resumed
operations around late on Wednesday.
Industry sources say that the unit has been hit by occasional problems
since it was commissioned in March with some parts being shut during its
four-month operation. The plant is reported to be faced with operational
problems since it started because the technology is relatively new and the
equipment is very sensitive.
