Huntsman Corporation's largest olefins manufacturing facility, that had idled on September 22 in advance of Hurricane Rita's landfall near Port Arthur, Texas has returned to production. Though no serious structural damage had been sustained by the facility during the storm, some repair was required. Restart was delayed by the lack of electrical power and limited availability of other utilities under contract from a neighboring refinery.
With the successful restart of the Port Arthur facility, all Huntsman primary Gulf Coast plants have resumed production.
