Borealis Kallo PDH2 Propylene Plant

Second propane dehydrogenation plant at Borealis' Kallo site, now part of Borouge International. It uses Honeywell UOP Oleflex technology to supply propylene to the European polypropylene network, and by-product hydrogen is sold to Air Liquide. An embedded cogeneration unit supplies part of the site's steam and electricity. Construction was halted in July 2022 after contractor human-rights concerns, and the contract with IREM was terminated. Work resumed in October 2022 with Ponticelli as the main mechanical contractor, and the dispute was settled in December 2025. Mechanical completion was reached in 2026, with start-up now expected in H1 2027.
