Andhra Petrochemicals’ plant situated at Visakhapatnam has been shut-down from November 17, 2013 due to non-supply of major raw material Propylene from its supplier Hindustan Petroleum Corporation (HPCL). As and when the plant operations are resumed, the company will intimate about the same immediately.
Andhra Petrochemicals was established with a capacity to produce 30,000 MTPA of Oxo Alcohols at Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. The Plant has recently undergone an Optimization & Modernization Scheme to increase the capacity to 73,000 MTPA.
