Production at some of SABIC's polyethylene and polypropylene plants in Al-Jubail, Saudi Arabia, will return to normal within days. This is due to an interruption in the power supply leading to power outages last week, leading to a slightly reduced rate of production.
SABIC confirms that its other manufacturing plants in Al-Jubail and Yanbu producing petrochemicals, other polymers, fertilizers and steel are running normally.
Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC) is the world's 5th largest petrochemicals company. The company is among the world's market leaders in the production of polyethylene, polypropylene and other advanced thermoplastics, glycols, methanol and fertilizers.
