UAE's ADNOC to almost triple petrochemical output by 2025

State-owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (ADNOC) plans to almost triple its petrochemical production to an annual 11.4 million tonnes from 4.5 million tonnes by 2025, group chief executive Sultan Al Jaber said on Monday.

"To achieve this we will seamlessly integrate our petrochemical and refining business, and as supplies of gas become tighter, we will expand our feedstock beyond ethane to include naphtha," Jaber said in a speech at an energy industry conference.
