Overhaul times for methanol plants and ammonia synthesis plants in 2017
Thread Content
Dear colleagues, has the schedule for the major overhauls of your unit’s methanol plant and ammonia synthesis plant in 2017 been determined?
Shutdowns for maintenance can be carried out at the appropriate time, based on the actual conditions of current production, the plans for major repairs, the availability of materials, the progress of maintenance and technical improvement projects, etc. Of course, it is also necessary to analyze the current favorable factors in the market.
Probably in July or August; the exact date will depend on how things go
In the third and fourth quarters of 2016, the fundamentals of the chemical industry showed signs of stabilization and recovery, and all companies carried out major repairs during that year. There were not many major overhauls in 17.
It is usually determined in June or July depending on the specific circumstances. And it can’t even be called a major repair now: L is only about 1 week, which at best can be considered a medium-scale repair from before.
