據烴加工網3月8日報道，卡塔爾能源公司和雪佛龍菲利普斯化學公司(CPChem)為美國得克薩斯州奧蘭治縣的金三角聚合物工廠（Golden Triangle Polymers Plant）舉行了破土動工儀式，標志著這個耗資85億美元的世界級石化設施建設的開始。

奧蘭治社區是這一戰略伙伴關系的直接受益者。卡塔爾投資85億美元建設這個世界級的設施，這是卡塔爾能源在美國的第二大投資，僅次于投資110億美元的Golden Pass液化天然氣生產和出口設施，該設施目前正在建設中，距離得克薩斯州Sabine Pass約35英里。到目前為止，該設施也將是奧蘭治社區幾十年來最重要的經濟投資，創造就業機會，支持經濟增長。

位于休斯敦以東約180公里處的該工廠，將包括一個乙烯裂解裝置，產能為208萬噸/年，是世界上最大的乙烯裂解裝置；以及兩個高密度聚乙烯裝置，總產能為200萬噸/年，也是世界上同類產品中最大的衍生裝置。該工廠預計將于2026年啟動，由金三角聚合物有限責任公司（Golden Triangle Polymers Company LLC）擁有，該公司是一家合資企業，卡塔爾能源持有49%的股權，CPChem持有51%的股權。

QatarEnergy and CPChem begin construction of $8.5-B petrochemical facility

QatarEnergy and Chevron Phillips Chemical Company (CPChem) marked the groundbreaking of the Golden Triangle Polymers Plant in Orange County, in Texas, U.S., marking the beginning of construction of the $8.5-B world-scale petrochemical facility.

The Orange community is a direct beneficiary of this strategic partnership. We are investing $8.5 B to build this world-scale facility, which is QatarEnergy’s second largest investment in the U.S. after the more than $11-B investment in the Golden Pass LNG production and export facility, which is currently under construction about 35 miles from here in Sabine Pass, Texas. This plant will also be, by far, the most significant economic investment in the Orange community in decades, creating jobs and supporting economic growth.

Located about 180 kilometers east of Houston, the plant will include an ethylene cracker unit with a capacity of 2.08 MMtpy, making it the largest in the world, and two high-density polyethylene units with a combined capacity of 2 MMtpy, also making them the largest derivatives units of their kind in the world. The plant is expected to startup in 2026 and will be owned by Golden Triangle Polymers Company LLC, a joint venture in which QatarEnergy holds a 49% equity interest with 51% held by CPChem.
