RIYADH: Sadara Chemical Co., the downstream joint venture of Saudi Aramco and Dow Chemical, has begun the operations of feedstock pipelines that will transport ethylene oxide and propylene oxide to PlasChem Park, according to a MEEd report. PlasChem is an industrial complex set up in Jubail Second Industrial City, dedicated to downstream chemical and conversion industries. “This is a major step in the development of PlasChem Park, which provides business tenants with easy access to one of our distinguished feedstocks,” said Sadara CEO Faisal AlFaqeer. He added: “The facilities envisioned for PlasChem Park are vital for the future of the Kingdom’s petrochemicals industry.” It was Saudi Aramco and Dow Chemical that completed the construction of this pipeline in September. The pipeline to transport ethylene oxide is 6.8 kilometers long, while the propylene oxide pipeline measures 6.2 kilometers.
