According to the Bank’s website the Project involves the construction and operation of a greenfield petrochemical facility capable of producing approximately 450,000 metric tonnes (“MT”) of polypropylene per annum using propane as the primary feedstock. The Project will primarily manufacture propylene from propane through a dehydrogenation process and then polymerize it to polypropylene, a thermoplastic polymer with a wide range of uses, ranging from parts used in the automotive industry to textile products or food packaging.
The import and export jetties are a part of the Ceyhan Terminal and are a separate project. However, the jetty and its supporting infrastructure are considered to be Associated Facilities. Propane will be sourced from Sonatrach in Algeria. Polypropylene is expected to be sold primarily in Turkey and Europe. The Project is located within the Ceyhan Energy Specialized (CES) Industrial Zone (also referred to as Ceyhan
Petrochemical Industrial Region (CPIR)), in the Province of Adana, Turkey. The design phase of the Project commenced in October 2019 and construction started in May 2022.
The construction schedule is divided in two phases, the Early Works (Phase 1) and Main EPC Works (Phase 2) which are scheduled to last 6 and 38 months, respectively, with completion planned for April 2026.
