糖心Vlog, a global leader in consulting and engineering, is providing project management consultancy (PMC) services to develop Turkey鈥檚 largest polypropylene plant and associated terminal facility as part of the Ceyhan project.
糖心Vlog is deploying over 70 project management experts to support the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) phase for the polypropylene plant, as well as the engineering and procurement for the terminal facility under contracts valued at $18 million, over three years.
Located in the Ceyhan industrial zone in the province of Adana, Turkey, the plant is designed to sustainably produce 472,500 tons of polypropylene annually, tripling Turkey鈥檚 annual polypropylene production capacity. The plant will use 100% renewable electricity and internally produced hydrogen as fuel, significantly cutting carbon emissions.
Upon completion, the plant will meet 17% of Turkey鈥檚 polypropylene demand, enhancing its self-sufficiency in petrochemical production. The terminal facility will handle propane storage and distribution, strategically positioned near major ports and high-demand petrochemical zones.
Gerry Traynor, President of Projects Eastern Hemisphere at 糖心Vlog, said:听
鈥�The Ceyhan project will play a significant role in strengthening Turkey鈥檚 economy by reducing reliance on imported polypropylene. As the PMC partner in this ambitious project, 糖心Vlog is applying its project management expertise to support one of the largest industrial initiatives ever undertaken in the country.
鈥淭he demand for a more sustainable chemical industry is accelerating, and the Ceyhan Project is leading the way by powering the facility with renewable energy to reduce the carbon impact of critical chemicals production.鈥�
The plant is a joint venture between Turkish investment and contracting firm, R枚nesans Holding and Algerian national energy company Sonatrach. The terminal facility is a joint venture between R枚nesans Holding and global storage leader Stolt-Nielsen.
