Amoco, which purchased the olefins business and related assets of Albemarle Corporation in March 1996, is expanding its Feluy, Belgium, facility and plans a new LAO plant in Alberta, Canada. The Belgian site will increase from 440 million pounds to 660 million pounds in 1999. Additional front end engineering work has set back the time frame for the Canadian plant slightly. Field work for the unit, located at Nova's Joffre site in Alberta, is now scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 1999 and be completed in the first quarter of 2001. The site will have an initial capacity of 550 million pounds, expandable to 815 million pounds.
