(MENAFN) Maha Mulla Hussain, Managing Director of Kuwait’s state-run Petrochemical Industries Co (PIC), explained that as part of a scheduled maintenance, the company will shutdown its polypropylene plant for two months in March 2011, Reuters reported.
According to the Managing Director, the shut-down is related to upgrading the three refineries for Kuwait National Petroleum Co (KNPC), who is also restrained to a certain time period.
The polypropylene plant, which is considered to be one of the company’s most important plants in Shuaiba, has a production capacity of approximately 150,000 tons, she said.
