CEE & Turkey Refining and Petrochemicals Conference 2015

10/21/2015

Branislav Kacko Project manager MOL GROUP

- Drivers for boosting polyethylene production to 220,000 tpa - Plans to be operational by February 2016 - Competitiveness with higher quality product portfolio

2 CEE & Turkey Refining and Petrochemicals Conference 2015

The installation of a new tubular 220 kt/a capacity LDPE-4 unit in Bratislava

Selected tubular technology of LyondellBasell – Lupotech T

Replacement of obsolete existing autoclave lines LDPE 1 – 3

Increase safety, lower environmental burden

New products with better quality

Higher production efficiency, lower energy consumption Improve competitiveness in LDPE business on strategic markets

Drivers for boosting polyethylene production to 220,000 tpa 3 CEE & Turkey Refining and Petrochemicals Conference 2015

Planned start-up in 1Q/2016

300 million EUR investment project in SLOVNAFT, a. s

Partial reconstruction of Steam cracker – other separate project

Project includes several off site projects (cooling water supply, logistics, oil storage, ethylene evaporation, roads, utility pipelines, electric energy supply reconstruction)

Human resources set up to cover project needs

Utilization of local companies for construction

- Pre-commissioning, punch listing

- Commissioning – early involvement of licensor

- PSSR –clarification and rectification

- Training – process, maintenance, laboratory

- Lab equipment delivery to Site and set up

- Operation of subsystems which are ready – utilities, extrusion, product

transport, logistics hub set up, packaging

- Maintenance – spare parts and preparation for standard maintenance

- Operating manuals fine tuning by Site personnel

- Evaporation – implementation of last phase

- Steam utilization – finalizing execution

- Preparation for Performance test

TUBULAR OR AUTOCLAVE?

8 8

TUBULAR LDPE

P 200-320MPa/T 300-350°C

Narrower MWD, Low degree of LCB

Medium melt strength

Higher clarity, gloss, lower haze (2% in average)

Better draw ability for lower film thickness

10% higher towing speed 30% lower minimal film thickness

Max MFR 40 g/10min

AUTOCLAVE LDPE

P 120-130MPa/T 150°C

Lower clarity, gloss, higher haze

Worse draw ability for lower film thickness

Broader MWD, high degree of LCB, higher melt strength (extrusion coating, heavy duty film)

Max MFR 200 g/10min

Competitiveness with higher quality product portfolio

Different process conditions lead to product with different properties mainly in terms of MWD and Long chain branches (LCB)

FILM APPLICATIONS

• Surface protection films • Label films • Lamination films • Sanitary films • Automatic packaging films

(foodstuff, sanitary articles) • Heavy duty bags • Shrink film • Agriculture films • Carrier bags • Garbage bags

Competitiveness with higher quality product portfolio
