Project ONE is an INEOS project located within the Port of Antwerp, Belgium. The project involves the construction of a new ethane cracker with an annual production capacity of approximately 1.45 million tonnes of ethylene, a key feedstock for polymers and chemical products. Its aim is to strengthen the competitiveness of the European chemical industry through a highly energy-efficient facility with a lower environmental footprint than conventional crackers.

The upcoming propane dehydrogenation (PDH) plant is set to be a major player, aiming for a production capacity of 750,000 metric tonnes per year, positioning it among the world’s largest and most efficient facilities. It is situated at an existing Borealis production site in Kallo, Belgium, chosen for its strategic logistical location and extensive experience in propylene production. Additionally, the selection aims to capitalize on synergies with the existing PDH unit. Utilizing Honeywell UOP’s Oleflex™ technology, known for its reliability and sustainability in propylene production, underscores the plant’s commitment to efficient and eco-friendly operations.
