Sadara Chemical has signed a deal to supply ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) to SADIG-ILCO, a new Saudi-German joint venture focused on EO and PO derivative products, Sadara said in a statement late Tuesday.
Under the deal, SADIG-ILCO’s new PlasChem Park facility at Jubail Industrial City II in Saudi Arabia will offtake EO and PO from Sadara through pipelines being established by Sadara.

Sadara, for its part, is a joint venture between Saudi Arabian Oil Co (Saudi Aramco) and Dow Chemical.
