INEOS Oligomers announces a 25% debottlenecking of its Isoamylene unit in Cologne (Germany), expected to be fully effective by mid-2023.  INEOS Oligomers has taken this action to support its customers relying on Isoamylene as a key component of their manufacturing process.  Isoamylene is a key raw material for a wide range of applications such as fragrances, peroxides, antioxidants, fungicides and other more specialized molecules.

The unit, located at the INEOS petrochemical site at Dormagen (Cologne - Germany), has a stable feedstock source coming from the cracker, supporting this debottleneck project.

Maarten Ghysel, Market Manager INEOS Oligomers, said “Isoamylene is a nice example for what our ‘Specialty Oligomers’ product line stands for: Special molecules that require a high standard of product quality and supply stability. This debottleneck project is a clear demonstration of our commitment to support our esteemed customer base.  Our current supply chain infrastructure will facilitate moving these products throughout the globe.”
