Tobolsk-Polymer LCC and the German company Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH have concluded an Engineering Procurement and Construction Contract (EPC-contract) for a polypropylene production unit with the capacity of 500,000 tons of polypropylene per year.

Earlier, Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH executed a FEED contract for development of front end engineering design and supply of long lead equipment. In the near future, Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH will start pile works at the construction site. It is scheduled to deliver the main part of the large-sized equipment to Tobolsk in 2010 – 2011.

The total contract value makes about 450 million Euro.

Technological scheme Tobolsk-Polymer LCC consists of two basic units – propane dehydration unit with the capacity of 510,000 tons of propylene per year and polypropylene production with the capacity of 500,000 tons per year. In December 2009 Tobolsk- Polymer and the Italian company Tecnimont S.p.A. concluded an Engineering Procurement and Construction Contract (EPC-contract) for the first one.
