Thailand's largest olefins maker-PTT Chemical Pcl, expects to operate its new 1 mln ton ethane cracker at 100% in 2010, from the current 50%. This is subject to the start up of the company’s sixth gas separation plant of PTT, which is the main feedstock supply to the cracker, in Q4-2010 as per Reuters. Chances of a fourth quarter start up seem bright after a ruling allowed lifted suspension of the gas separation plant, after work on it was suspended a year ago by a court ruling in an environmental dispute at Map Ta Phut.
