據烴加工在線5月28日消息，雪佛龍菲利普斯化學公司位于美國德克薩斯州Old Ocean的新建世界級規模1-己烯裝置項目已經破土動工，該裝置位于公司Sweeny工廠附近。該裝置設計產能為26.6萬噸/年，建成投產后將令雪佛龍菲利浦斯化學公司在美國的1-己烯產能達到65萬噸/年，滿足客戶不斷增長的需求。1-己烯是生產高性能塑料產品的關鍵原料。

　　該項目將采用雪佛龍菲利普斯化學公司專有的1-己烯技術，該技術可以從乙烯中生產出純度極高的共聚單體級1-己烯。該項目預計將于2021年第三季度開始建設，并于2023年建成投產，預計在高峰期將涉及600個建筑工作崗位。一旦投入運營，該項目將支持50多個全職崗位。

　　雪佛龍菲利普斯化學公司負責聚合物和專用化學品業務的執行副總裁Mitch Eichelberger表示:“新建裝置將提供額外的靈活性和產量，以滿足不斷增長的客戶預期需求，同時為未來的增長奠定了堅實的基礎。該新建項目也將作為促進本地經濟發展的催化劑，創造就業機會。我們非常自豪能成為這個社區的一員，并期待著將這個項目變為現實。”

　　雪佛龍菲利普斯化學公司表示，位于Old Ocean的新建1-己烯裝置項目將在基礎設施、原料可獲得性和運營專長方面享有顯著優勢。它還將受益于最新的技術進步，以實現能源和排放效率的提高。一旦投入使用，將進一步鞏固公司作為領先的1-己烯供應商的地位。雪佛龍菲利普斯化學公司已經在德克薩斯州貝城的Cedar Bayou工廠運營著世界上最大的1-己烯裝置和兩套全系列α-烯烴裝置。

　　Chevron Phillips Chemical breaks ground on world-scale 1-hexene unit

　　Chevron Phillips Chemical broke ground on a new world-scale unit for on-purpose 1-hexene in Old Ocean, Texas, near its Sweeny facility. With a capacity of 266 KTA, the new asset grows the company’s total U.S. 1-hexene capacity to 650 KTA at a time of rising customer demand. 1-hexene is central to manufacturing high-performance plastic products.

　　The project will harness Chevron Phillips Chemical’s proprietary, on-purpose 1-hexene technology, which produces exceptional purity comonomer grade 1-hexene from ethylene. Construction is expected to commence during the third quarter of 2021, with project startup in 2023, and is expected to involve 600 construction jobs at its peak. once operational, the project will support more than 50 full-time positions.

　　“The new unit will provide additional flexibility and production to meet anticipated demand from our growing customer base, while establishing a strong foundation for future growth,” said Mitch Eichelberger, executive vice president of polymers and specialities. “This new asset will also serve as a catalyst to advance the local economy as a source of job creation. We are very proud to be part of this community and look forward to bringing this project to life.”

　　The new 1-hexene unit in Old Ocean will enjoy significant advantages in infrastructure, feedstock availability and operational expertise. It will also benefit from the latest technology advances to achieve energy and emissions efficiency improvements. once operational, it will further the company’s position as a leading 1-hexene supplier. Chevron Phillips Chemical already operates the world’s largest on-purpose 1-hexene unit and two full-range alpha-olefin units at its Cedar Bayou plant in Baytown, Texas.
