Tata Chemicals (TCL) will shut down operations at its fertilizer plant at Haldia for about 5 weeks in September-October, 2016 due to interruption of ammonia supply to the TCL-Haldia phosphatic fertilizer plant. The fertiliser plant at Haldia manufactures DAP, SSP and complex NPK fertilisers wherein ammonia is used as one of the feedstock.
In this regard, the company has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Sanjana Cryogenics Storage (SCSL), its Ammonia Terminal Operator, for rerouting a portion of the ammonia pipeline that runs from the Haldia Dock to the Ammonia Storage tank. This has been done at the directive of Kolkata Port Trust for facilitating the set up a Multi-Modal Terminal Hub at Haldia by Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI). This pipeline rerouting activity is likely to cause a shutdown of operations.
TCL is a part of over $100 billion Tata group, currently the second-largest producer of soda ash in the world with manufacturing facilities in India, UK, Kenya and USA. It is India’s leading crop nutrients player with its own manufacturing of urea and phosphatic fertilizers (namely, Di Ammonium Phosphate (DAP), Nitrogen Potash and Phosphorus (NPK) and single Super Phosphate (SSP) and a leading player in crop protection business through its subsidiary Rallis India.
