Indonesia’s Chandra Asri has shut down its 100,000 tonne/year butadiene (BD) extraction unit following an unplanned outage at its 600,000 tonne/year naphtha cracker in Cilegon in West Java, market sources said.
“We expect the BD unit to be offline till the end of the month,” market sources said.
The unexpected shutdown may result in a BD production loss of about 3,000 tonnes, if it is shut till the end of the month, according to market sources.
