PKN ORLEN SA has entered into a contract with Polimex-Mostostal for general civil engineering and construction work of the PTA plant (terephthalic acid plant).
Technical project and the delivery of raw materials, facilities and technical assistance for the construction of the PTA plant has been contracted with and will be provided by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
The start of the PTA plant, to be located on PKN ORLEN's premises adjacent to Anwil Wloclawek (Poland), is scheduled for Q4 2010. The construction work is due to begin in Q2 2008.
The 2003 – 2010 forecasts for Western Europe indicate 6% growth in demand each year. Over the same period, the forecasts indicate that supplies will not match consumption.
