On April 11, an upgrade project for the Naphtha Olefins4 cracker, which was built in the 1970s, was officially launched. The goal of the upgrade project is to reduce the cracker's energy consumption by 8%. The project will also realize a production increase of 2%.

The €135 million investment will also be used to launch more than twenty additional improvement projects and a substantial maintenance shutdown (Turnaround) scheduled for September 2013.
