According to Reuters, Saudi PetroRabigh gradually restarted its petrochemical complex at Rabigh last Sunday.
The company had a technical glitch at its cracker in Rabigh last week, which caused production disruptions at its ethane cracker, and shut the whole complex as a precaution.
The ethane cracker has a production capacity of 1.6 million tons/year. The complex also houses a 300,000 tons/year HDPE plant, a 600,000 tons/year LLDPE plant, a 700,000 tons/year PP plant and a 600,000 tons/year MEG plant.
