 "Reliance Industries plans a turnaround at Nagothane plant")
Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) has scheduled a planned turnaround at its Nagothane manufacturing site in Maharashtra. The cracker and some of the downstream units will be shut for approximately four weeks, starting around mid-January 2015. Nagothane manufacturing site comprises an ethane and propane gas cracker and five downstream plants for the manufacture of polymers, fibre intermediates and chemicals. The site manufactures LDPE, Butene-1, LLDPE, HDPE, polypropylene, and MEG/ethylene oxide.
During the period, the company will also carry out routine maintenance activities and implement other profit improvement and energy conservation measures at the site. Reliance Industries Ltd’s crackers and other downstream units at other locations will continue at normal levels of operations.
According to RIL, with advance planning and inventory management, impact on external sales is likely to be minimal.
