ExxonMobil completes acquisition of Jurong’s aromatics plant in Singapore




ExxonMobil Chemical Company said that its Singapore affiliate has completed the acquisition of one of the world’s largest aromatics facilities on JurongIsland in Singapore. The acquisition was first announced in May 2017.
The facility, previously owned by Jurong Aromatics Corporation, is located near ExxonMobil’s largest integrated refining and petrochemical complex, which has an ethylene production capacity of 1.9 million tonnes per year and a crude oil processing capacity of 592,000 barrels per day.
The acquisition will strengthen both sites with operational and logistical synergies, as well as increase ExxonMobil’s Singapore aromatics production to over 3.5 million tonnes per year, including 1.8 million tonnes of paraxylene, and add about 65,000 barrels per day of transportation fuels capacity.
