据烃加工在线6月24日消息称，雪佛龙菲利普斯化学公司和卡塔尔石油公司宣布签署了一项协议，将继续在卡塔尔开发、建设和运营一家生产乙烯和高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)的石化企业。该设施将在拉斯拉凡工业城市开发建设，预计将有一个190万吨/年乙烷裂解装置和两个高密度聚乙烯衍生物装置，总容量168万吨/年。

卡塔尔石油公司首席执行官兼能源事务国务部长Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi与雪佛龙菲利普斯化学公司总裁兼首席执行官Mark E. Lashier在多哈签署了该项目协议文件。

卡塔尔石油公司将拥有该合资企业70%的多数股权，雪佛龙菲利普斯化学公司将拥有剩余30%的股权。

除了独家授权其用于制造HDPE的MarTECHTM循环泥浆工艺外，雪佛龙菲利普斯化学公司还将提供项目管理、工程和建设服务来开发该项目。作为开发阶段的一部分，两家公司将研究通过利用卡塔尔化学公司（Q-Chem）合资企业的现有能力实现的潜在效率，以便在该设施建成后提供全面的运营管理。

Lashier说:“开发这个项目对我们公司来说是一个巨大的机会，可以扩大我们与卡塔尔的合资企业，以满足日益增长的全球对石化产品的需求。石化产品丰富了全世界人民的生活。卡卡塔尔是全球领先的液化天然气生产国之一，液化天然气将为这些全球规模的资产提供燃料。该项目完全符合我们在全球范围内建立石化资产的战略，这些地区的原料选择丰富，价格具有竞争力。

Lashier总结道：“我们期待着与卡塔尔石油公司建立牢固的关系，并相信这些新的全球规模的资产将带来非凡的价值。”

该项目的工程设计阶段应很快开始，计划于2025年底开始。

Chevron Phillips and Qatar Petroleum sign petrochemical agreement

Chevron Phillips Chemical Co. and Qatar Petroleum (QP) have announced the signing of an agreement to pursue the development, construction and operation of a petrochemicals complex in Qatar to produce ethylene and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The facility will be developed and constructed in Ras Laffan Industrial City and is expected to have a 1.9 million tpy ethane cracker and two high-density polyethylene derivative units with a combined capacity of 1.68 million tpy.

Signing of the project agreement documents occurred in Doha by Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, the Minister of State for Energy Affairs and the President and CEO of Qatar Petroleum, and Mark E. Lashier, President and CEO of Chevron Phillips Chemical.

Qatar Petroleum will own a 70% majority share of the joint venture and Chevron Phillips Chemical will own the remaining 30%.

In addition to the exclusive licensing of its MarTECHTM loop slurry process for manufacturing HDPE, Chevron Phillips Chemical will provide project management, engineering and construction services to develop the project. As part of the development phase, the companies will study the potential efficiencies that could be realised by harnessing the existing capabilities of the Qatar Chemical Company (Q-Chem) joint ventures to provide overall operational management of the facility once complete.

“Developing this project is a tremendous opportunity for our company to expand on our highly-successful joint ventures with the State of Qatar to meet the growing global demand for petrochemical products that enrich lives around the world,” said Lashier. “Qatar is one of the world’s leading producers of the natural gas liquids that will fuel these world-scale assets. This project fits perfectly with our global strategy to build petrochemical assets in regions of the world where feedstock options are abundant and competitively-priced.

“We look forward to building on our strong relationship with Qatar Petroleum and believe that these new world-scale assets will deliver exceptional value,” concluded Lashier.

The engineering design phase of the project should commence shortly, leading to a planned start-up in late 2025.
