因特管道获得4.08亿美元开发石化综合设施

据油气工程4月7日新闻消息称，因特管道公司宣布，根据艾伯塔省石油化工激励方案（APIP），它将获得4.08亿美元。这笔拨款是为了支持因特管道公司的Heartland石化总厂(HPC)，这是一个综合丙烷脱氢(PDH)和聚丙烯生产设施，将于2022年初投入运营。

因特管道公司总裁兼首席执行官Christian Bayle表示：“ APIP拨款表彰了HPC对阿尔伯塔省经济的重大贡献，并将继续做出贡献。HPC的建设在多年的建设过程中创造了数千个高薪的技术、制造和建筑工作岗位，在经济困难时期是该省希望的象征。总而言之，我们预计约30亿美元或项目建设支出的四分之三将直接投资于艾伯塔省企业提供的材料和服务。”

“此外，我们预计HPC将为政府创造数百个长期高质量的全职工作岗位和大量持续可观的税收收入。我们感谢艾伯塔省政府对HPC的支持，并且我们相信这向国际投资界发出了明确的信息—欢迎未来在艾伯塔省进行大规模石化投资。”

APIP是艾伯塔省推出的一项激励计划，旨在吸引投资，发展艾伯塔省的石化设施。该计划旨在利用不断发展的全球石化行业，利用艾伯塔省丰富的天然气储量来使其经济多样化，并创造一个有竞争力的、对投资者友好的商业环境。

HPC将本地采购的低成本丙烷转化为52.5万吨/年的聚丙烯，这是一种高价值、易于运输和回收的多用途塑料，用于各种成品制造，例如包装、纺织品、汽车零部件、医疗保健产品和医疗用品。

Inter Pipeline awarded US$408 million to develop petrochemical complex

Inter Pipeline Ltd. has announced that it will receive US$408 million under the Alberta Petrochemicals Incentive Programme (APIP). The grant has been awarded in support of Inter Pipeline’s Heartland petrochemical complex (HPC), an integrated propane dehydrogenation (PDH) and polypropylene production facility, which will be operational in early 2022.

“The APIP grant recognises the significant contribution HPC has and will continue to make to the Alberta economy,” stated Christian Bayle, Inter Pipeline's President and Chief Executive Officer. “HPC's construction has created thousands of well-paid technical, manufacturing and construction jobs over its multi-year build and has been a symbol of hope during difficult economic times for the Province. In total, we expect that roughly US$3 billion or three quarters of the project construction spend will be invested directly into materials and services provided by Alberta businesses.

"Furthermore, we expect HPC to generate hundreds of permanent high-quality full-time jobs and substantial ongoing tax revenue for government. We appreciate the Government of Alberta's support of HPC, and we believe it sends a clear message to the international investment community — future large-scale petrochemical investments are welcome in Alberta.”

APIP is an incentive programme introduced by the Government of Alberta to attract investment into the development of petrochemical facilities in Alberta. The programme is aimed at taking advantage of the growing global petrochemical sector, utilising Alberta's abundant natural gas reserves to diversify its economy and creating a competitive, investor-friendly business environment.

HPC will convert locally sourced, low-cost propane into 525 000 tpy of polypropylene, a high value, easily transported and recycled, multi-use plastic used in the manufacturing of an extensive range of finished products such as packaging, textiles, automobile components, healthcare products and medical supplies.
