据ICIS网站11月11日休斯顿报道 星期一，利安德巴赛尔在美国海湾沿岸的新环氧丙烷（PO）和叔丁醇（TBA）工厂完工进度已超过20%，目前正转向垂向组装。
位于德克萨斯州的Channelview工厂将拥有47万吨/年的环氧丙烷和100万吨/年的叔丁醇产能，预计2021年底启动。
利安德巴赛尔还在其位于德克萨斯州帕萨迪纳的Bayport综合设施建造了一个相关的乙醚单元，将叔丁醇转化为氧燃料。
PO/TBA项目总监Joe Dorsch表示：“随着我们基础设施工作的结束，我们很快就会看到这些大型设备安装完毕后，在这两个施工现场完成工厂的建设。”
两个工地都在安装第一批结构钢，储罐、冷却塔和火炬的安装将从Channelview开始。
利安德巴塞尔24亿美元的PO/TBA交易协议项目预计每年将产生4-4.5亿美元的收益。

LyondellBasell’s US PO/TBA plant 20% complete
LyondellBasell’s new propylene oxide (PO) and tertiary butyl alcohol (TBA) plant in the US Gulf Coast has surpassed 20% completion, with work shifting to vertical assembly, the chemicals major announced on Monday.
The Channelview plant in Texas will have a capacity of 470,000 tonnes/year of PO and 1m tonnes/year of TBA. It is expected to start up at the end of 2021.
LyondellBasell is also building an associated ethers unit, which converts TBA to oxyfuels, at its Bayport complex in Pasadena, Texas.
“As our infrastructure work wraps up, we’ll soon begin to see the plants emerge from both construction sites as these large pieces of equipment are installed,” said Joe Dorsch, PO/TBA project director.
The first pieces of structural steel are being installed at both sites, and installation of tanks, cooling towers and the flare will begin at Channelview.
LyondellBasell’s $2.4bn PO/TBA project is expected to generate $400m-450m in earnings per year.
