Braskem SA plans to delay petrochemical projects with Venezuela's state-run Pequiven in line with forecasts of increased demand for petrochemicals after a few years.

Hence, the polyethylene plant scheduled for start up in 2011 will now be operational in 2014 and the polypropylene plant is being delayed until 2013.
