Serbia’s HIP Petochemija to shut down ethylene plant for overhaul

Serbia’s HIP Petrohemija plans to suspend operations from the 8th until the 19th of October for an overhaul of its ethylene plant.

The works will include inspection and rehabilitation of production equipment at the plant.

The temporary halt will mean that production in Petrohemija’s plants for high density polyethylene, HDPE, and low density polyethylene, LDPE, will also be suspended.

The downtime will ensure the continuation of the company’s operations in a safe and efficient manner.

HIP Petrohemija, which owns petrochemical complexes located in Pancevo, Elemir and Crepaja, specializes in the production of high- and low-density polyethylene and other petrochemical products
