(PTI) Haldia Petro faces delay in expansion projects KOLKATA, Feb 23: Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd (HPL) was facing a delay in completion of its Supermax expansion project, which involved an increase in naphtha cracking facility. The delay was due to shortage of designers, fabrication and other materials required for civil construction of the project, Managing director of HPL, Swapan Bhowmick told reporters on the sidelines of 'PlastIndia 2009' here. While the company had earlier decided to implement the project during May 2008, it was now re-scheduled for completion in the third quarter of the next financial year. Asked whether there would be a cost overrun, he said it was likely. The initial project cost was pegged at Rs 840 crore. The Supermax project entailed expansion of naphtha cracking facility from 520 kg tonnes per annum to 675 kg tonne per annum. Bhowmick told last night that the fast changing dynamics in the global petrochemicals industry was forcing the company to review its strategy. Following this, the company has decided to make a strategic shift to value addition by manufacturing products which did not require much naphtha. Meanwhile, the company was in talks with L&T for buying out their 51 per cent stake in HPL Cogeneration, a 160 MW power unit. HPL has 49 per cent stake in the power company. (PTI) |
