Name of the Project
Daesan integrated refining and petrochemicals platform expansion.

Location
Daesan, South Korea.

Client
Hanwha Total Petrochemical, a 50:50 joint venture between Hanwha and Total.

Project Description
The project aims to expand Hanwha Total Petrochemical’s integrated refining and petrochemicals platform. The site comprises a flexible condensate splitter and a competitive steam cracker, as well as polymers, styrene and aromatics.

The investment will increase the site’s polyethylene capacity by more than 50% to 1.1-million tons a year by the end of 2019.

This project complements the steam cracker expansion and flexibilisation project announced earlier this year, which will enable the operation to process low-cost propane feedstock, and enables the facility to capture margin along the full ethylene-polyethylene value chain.
