據安迅思紐約3月16日消息，陶氏化學首席財務官3月16日表示，預計到3月底，美國德克薩斯州的裂解裝置的開工率水平將提高到80%，并在4月底全面恢復生產，因為該公司正從嚴重的冬季風暴和冰凍的影響中恢復。

陶氏化學首席財務官霍華德?昂格萊德(Howard Ungerleider)在摩根大通組織的電話會議上表示:“從今天起，我很高興地宣布，除了位于色賓河附近的一套裝置外，陶氏化學在美國墨西哥灣沿岸的所有裂解裝置都已投入運行,色賓河裂解裝置將于本月底重啟。”

昂格萊德預計，陶氏化學受冬季風暴影響的所有工廠將在3月底至4月期間繼續提高開工率水平，因該公司要應對一些原材料短缺問題，并進行凍損修復。他表示:“總的來說，我想說，我們預計到3月底，我們在德州的資產利用率將達到80%，在4月底之前的某個時間點將達到全面恢復生產。”

Dow expects Texas cracker operating rates at 80% by end-March, full rates by end-April - CFO

Dow expects to ramp up its Texas cracker operating rates to 80% by the end of March, and achieve full rates by the end of April as it recovers from the impacts of the severe winter storm and freeze, its CFO said on Tuesday.

“As of today, I’m pleased to report that all of our crackers on Dow’s US Gulf Coast are operational with the one exception being Sabine River, and Sabine will restart at the end of this month,” said Dow CFO Howard Ungerleider on a JPMorgan conference call.

He expects all of Dow’s plants impacted by the winter storm to continue to ramp up through the end of March and into April as it deals with some raw material constraints and conducts freeze damage repairs.“In general, I would say we expect our Texas assets to be at 80% rates by the end of the month, and full rates at some point before the end of April,” said Ungerleider.
