July 05 2018 - 7:30AM
Business Wire
LSB Industries, Inc. (NYSE:LXU) (“LSB” or “the Company”) today
announced that the ammonia plant at its El Dorado, Arkansas
chemical facility (“El Dorado Facility” or “El Dorado”) resumed
production on June 30, 2018. As previously announced, El Dorado was
taken out of service after a power outage resulted in tube failures
in the ammonia plant’s boiler on June 4, 2018.
In addition, while El Dorado’s ammonia plant was out of service,
the company elected to pull forward work previously planned for the
September 2018 Turnaround, which shortens the planned Turnaround in
the third quarter to five days, from the previously revised twelve
days, resulting in additional third quarter production and reduced
Turnaround expense.
