The Repsol's CEO, the Prime Minister and the Minister of Economy have announced the launching of the Sines Petrochemical Complex expansion project. As a result, around 500 jobs will be created, and during the building process, more than 1,500 workers will be employed. This important project is one of company's main worldwide growth projects to be carried out in the Iberian Peninsula and represents an investment of more than EUR 1 billion.
The expansion of the Repsol Sines Complex contemplates the building of one new lineal polyethylene and new polypropylene unit that will significantly increase the current petrochemical complex production. In addition, a cogeneration plant of 45 megawatts (Mw) will be built with the aim of increasing the Complex's efficiency and becoming one of Europe's most advanced technological centres.
