Borouge International, a pure-play polyolefins producer, made significant progress in its major growth projects in the UAE and Europe. This supports the company’s global expansion and long-term growth ambitions, with a target of 13.8m tonnes of annual capacity by 2030.
The Company is actively working towards the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contracts to expand its Ethane Cracker 2 (EU2) capacity by 230,000 tonnes per year.
To achieve this expansion, it has initiated early Engineering Services in 2026 with Linde Engineering, the licensor of the original EU2 plant, and has appointed Linde Engineering as the Front End Engineering & Design (FEED) contractor for the EU2 expansion project.
Roger Kearns, Chief Executive Officer, Borouge International, said, “Borouge International brings together world-class assets, proprietary technologies and deep market expertise to create a more competitive and resilient global polyolefins leader. As we execute our growth strategy at scale, we continue to focus on innovation to deliver premium, differentiated solutions that support the needs of our customers and create long-term value for shareholders.”
Dr. Hasan Karam, Chief Operating Officer, Borouge International, said, “We are unlocking new capacity through our strategic growth and expansion projects, strengthening our global polyolefins platform and generating long-term value for our shareholders. With a resolute focus on operational excellence, we are maximising the performance of our assets, harnessing advanced technologies, and shaping the future of our industry.”
Linde Engineering has been honored with a letter of award for its pre-FEED work on the upgrade of Borouge International’s third ethane cracker, EU3. This upgrade will result in the production of additional ethylene, which will be sold as base chemicals, aligning with the Company’s long-term strategic goals.
Furthermore, the Company continues to make significant progress on the Borouge 4 expansion project in Ruwais, UAE. This project, owned by ADNOC and OMV and operated by Borouge Plc, aims to add 1.4m tonnes of additional polyethylene capacity once fully operational. This expansion will make Ruwais the largest single-site polyolefin complex.
Borouge International is expanding its projects in Europe, aiming to deliver long-term value to shareholders. In Belgium, Borouge International’s second Propane Dehydrogenation plant, Kallo PDH2, has reached mechanical completion. It has a production capacity of 750,000 tonnes per annum and is expected to start operations in the first half of 2027.
In Burghausen, Germany, Borouge International is expanding its Borstar Nextension polypropylene project. Construction for this next-generation single-site polypropylene facility began in September 2026. Upon completion, it is anticipated to significantly increase commercial capacity to meet growing market demand.
