On July 14, 2025, at the construction site of PetroChina Guangxi Petrochemical Company located in the China-Malaysia Qinzhou Industrial Park, the 1.2 million tons/year ethylene unit achieved a high-quality, high-standard intermediate handover after the quality assessment report was read out. Representatives from the construction, receiving, general contracting, construction, and supervision units signed the intermediate handover certificate, marking the full completion of PetroChina Guangxi Petrochemical's integrated refining and chemical transformation and upgrading project.
It is understood that the project has a total investment of 30.5 billion yuan, covering an area of over 4,400 mu, and is a major project in the national petrochemical industry planning layout. It is also a key project for building the Western Land-Sea New Corridor and participating in RCEP international competition. After completion and commissioning, the project will strongly promote PetroChina Guangxi Petrochemical Company's transformation from a "fuel-type" refinery to a "chemical products and organic materials-type" petrochemical enterprise, fill the gap in the region's high-end chemical new materials industry, meet the market demand along the Western Land-Sea New Corridor, and help Guangxi build a trillion-yuan-level green chemical new materials industrial cluster facing ASEAN.
Since construction began in July 2023, the participating units have overcome a series of key and difficult problems and set many industry records, including building the world's largest diesel adsorption separation unit, building Asia's largest chemical rainwater and emergency pool, and realizing the recycling of construction water.
