Poland's PKN Orlen lifts force majeure on PTA supplies
The company declared force majeure on PTA supplies from the unit on November 29 due to a technical issue.
This was the second force majeure declaration from the producer in the past one month as the same unit was taken offline on November 8, following a technical malfunction in the heat exchanger, which prompted the company to declare force majeure. That force majeure was lifted on November 20.
