PetroVietnam Gas to supply materials to SCG’s Vietnam petchem complex
Vietnamese gas supplier PV Gas will jointly supply materials for the US$5.4 billion Long Son Petrochemicals Complex, invested by Thailand’s Siam Cement Group (SCG) in the southern province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Vietnam. PV Gas, listed on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange, will supply ethane, propane, and condensate/naphtha to the complex.
The complex is set to enter commercial operation next month, with an annual demand of 1.6 million tonnes of gas materials.
PV Gas is seeking approval from provincial authorities for a project to extract ethane from natural gas for the complex.
Siam Cement Group (SCG) started construction of the US$5.4 billion Long Son Petrochemicals Complex in Ba Ria-Vung Tau in the fourth quarter of 2018.
