In a latest notification to PSX, the Engro Polymer & Chemical Limited posted Quarterly progress report on implementation of PVC expansion/VCM debottlenecking.
Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, the progress at PVC has been satisfactory. We are pleased to inform that the PVC plant has attained Mechanical Completion. We are now in the commissioning phase and on target to attain COD as of end Q1 2021. On the VCM debottlenecking front, construction work remained in progress but has experienced some hindrance due to shipment postponement and minor manpower mobilization issues on part of the EPC contractor. There is a distinct possibility that Mechanical completion will see some delay and COD will spill over to early Q2 2021.
