The German consortium of industrial gases and engineering Mikko will build a plant of catalytic disintegration ("cracker") of ethane in Abu Dhabi (Arab Emirates) for 1,075 million dollars (768 million euros). Linde has been awarded the contract of Borouge, joint venture company formed by the oil company Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (Adnoc) and Borealis chemical products.
The new "cracker" will have a capacity of 1.5 million tonnes and will allow to increase the annual production capacity of the Ruwais plant, in Abu Dhabi, to the 4.5 million tons of poliofelina in 2013.
The ethane awarded to Linde "cracker" is the third that will build the German Consortium for Borouge in a decade and will make Borouge ethane leading producer in the world.
