ExxonMobil announces 650,000 metric ton PE project at Beaumont, Texas

2:46 PM MST | November 14, 2016 | Clay Boswell

ExxonMobil today announced that it is building a 650,000-metric tons/year polyethylene (PE) unit at its Beaumont, Texas, facility. Construction has already begun, and startup is scheduled for 2019, says the company, which did not specify the type of PE that will be produced.

The new capacity is additional to two other 650,000-metric ton/year PE lines being built at ExxonMobil’s Mont Belvieu, Texas, facility. Both are expected to begin production in the second half of 2017.

ExxonMobil currently has six PE lines totaling 1.2 million metric tons/year of capacity at Beaumont. One line produces high-density PE (HDPE), three produce linear low-density PE (LLDPE), and two produce low-density PE (LDPE). The company has three PE lines totaling 1.17 million metric tons in place at Mont Belvieu, two producing LLDPE. A 240,000-metric ton/year HDPE line is being expanded to 300,000 metric tons/year, with the new capacity available in 2017.
