Mitsui to build petchem
plants for Russia's Nizhnekamskneftekhim
Russia's petrochemicals
manufacturer Nizhnekamskneftekhim and Japan's Mistui have signed
a cooperation agreement whereby Mitsui would build a number of
petrochemical plants for the Russian company,
Nizhnekamskneftekhim's press office said Monday.
At a meeting in
Niznekamsk last week, both companies' discussed plans to build
plants to produce ABS plastics, polythene(=polyethylene), methanol and polycarbonates.
The name of our
Company "Nizhnekamskneftekhim" consists of two
independent words: name of the city where the Company is
located - Nizhnekamsk, that is the city situated downstream
of the Kama-river (major tributary of the Volga-river), and
proper name of the business the Company is engaged in - neftekhim,
which stands for petrochemical. In combination, both these words are
rather inconvenient for reading and the more so for
pronouncing by western users of our SITE. Therefore, in our
future information about our Company for convenience of our
users we'll be writing the abbreviation NKNK Inc, which would
mean "Nizhnekamskneftekhim" Inc.
The Nizhnekamsk Oil
Refinery has been acting as an independent legal entity since
January 1961 when construction of its works started.
In July 1967 the
first works of the Oil Refinery, the Central Gas Cut Plant,
was put in operation.
In December 1967
the company got its present name: Nizhnekamsk Oil Refinery.
In 1970
production of isoprene-monomer and isoprene rubber started;
In 1973 of butyl rubber
and divinyl started.
In 1976 the ethylene plant was put in operation
and a 286 km long ethylene pipeline from Niznekamsk to Kazan
was finished.
In 1977 the
company was renamed as Nizhnekamskneftekhim Production
Association an that year its plant producing ethylbenzol
and styrene was
put in operation and a 520 km long ethylene pipeline from
Niznekamsk to Salavat via Ufa and Sterlitamak was finished.
In 1979 a new
oil processing plant ELOU-AVT started working; in 1980 - ethylene
oxide plant; in
1983 production of propylene oxide and simple polyethers started.
In 1993 Nizhnekamskneftekhim Production Association was
denationalised and transformed into Nizhnekamskneftekhim Open
Joint-Stock Company registered with the Ministry of Finances
of the Republic of Tatarstan on August 18, 1993, register
entry No.388.
OAO Tatneft, OAO
Nizhnekamskneftekhim, OAO Svyazinvestneftekhim, and South-Korean LG established OAO Tatar-Korean
petrochemical company (TKNK).
TKNK's
authorized capital amounts to $220 thousand. Major
shareholders are Tatneft (45 percent), Nizhnekamskneftekhim
(36 percent), Svyazinvestneftekhim (8 percent), LG (10
percent). LG proceeded to a feasibility study, and plans to
attract first international bank loans through the Korean
Export-Import Bank in summer 2004.
The complex will
incorporate a refinery with annual output of 7 mln. t; an ethylene
plant with
annual output of 600 thousand tonnes, and polymer manufacturing and processing
facility. Total project budget amounts to ca. $2.5 bln.
Japanese
executive agrees to plead guilty to participating in an
international antitrust conspiracy
Would Be First Japanese Citizen To Serve A
Prison Sentence In The U.S. For Antitrust Offense http://www.usdoj.gov/opa/pr/2004/August/04_at_543.htm
Hitoshi Hayashi, an executive of
the Japanese chemical giant Daicel Chemical Industries Ltd., has
agreed to plead guilty, to serve a three-month jail sentence in
the United States, and to pay a $20,000 fine for his role in a
17-year international conspiracy that suppressed competition in
the food preservatives industry, the Department of Justice
announced today. The penalties agreed to by Hayashi are subject
to court approval. If approved by the Court, Hayashi would be the
first Japanese citizen to serve a prison term in the United
States for an antitrust offense.
The
superseding felony case filed today in U.S. District Court in San
Francisco charges Hayashi, a resident of Japan, with one count of
fixing prices and allocating volumes of sorbates sold in the U.S.
and elsewhere from 1992 until 1996, the time period of his
participation in the conspiracy. Hayashi has agreed to cooperate
fully with the ongoing federal investigation of anticompetitive
behavior in the sorbates market.
“Today’s charge demonstrates the Justice
Department’s ability to
effectively enforce antitrust laws across international lines,” said R. Hewitt Pate, Assistant
Attorney General in charge of the Department’s Antitrust Division. “We are committed to investigating and
prosecuting all conspirators, whether domestic or foreign, that
harm American businesses and consumers.”
The
conspiracy to fix the prices and allocate the volume of sorbates
sold in the United States and elsewhere affected nearly $1
billion in U.S. commerce, the Department said. Roughly $200
million worth of sorbates - which includes potassium sorbate and
sorbic acid - are sold annually worldwide. Sorbates are chemical
preservatives used primarily as mold inhibitors in high-moisture
and high-sugar food products, such as baked goods, wine, and
cheese.
Hayashi
was originally indicted in January 2001 along with three other
foreign defendants for participating in the sorbates cartel.
Until now he has remained a fugitive beyond the reach of U.S.
jurisdiction.
Once
Hayashi has been sentenced on today’s charge, he will be dismissed from a
January 23, 2001 indictment. The January 23, 2001 indictment will
stand against the three remaining defendants.
Companies
from Europe, Japan, and the United States have already pled
guilty to antitrust charges stemming from their involvement in the
conspiracy. Those companies were sentenced to pay criminal fines
totalling $132 million.
Hayashi
is charged with conspiring to suppress and eliminate competition
among sorbates producers by:
・
participating in meetings and
conversations to discuss the prices and volumes of
sorbates to be sold in the United States and elsewhere;
・
agreeing, during those meetings
and conversations, to charge prices at certain levels and
otherwise to increase and maintain prices of sorbates to
be sold in the United States and elsewhere;
・
agreeing, during those meetings
and conversations, to allocate among major producers the
volumes of sorbates to be sold in the United States and
elsewhere;
・
issuing price announcements and
price quotations in accordance with the agreements
reached; and
・
exchanging information on sales of
sorbates in the United States and elsewhere for the
purpose of monitoring and enforcing adherence to the
agreed-upon prices and sales volumes.
James M.
Griffin, the Antitrust Division’s Deputy Assistant Attorney General for
Criminal Enforcement, emphasized that “the Justice Department is continuing to
gather information about these and other violations of United
States antitrust laws by international cartels. Today’s charge, and the cooperation that we will
obtain through it, will enhance and further our efforts.”
Hayashi
has been charged with violating Section 1 of the Sherman Act,
which carries a maximum penalty of three years imprisonment and a
$350,000 fine for an individual for violations occurring before
June 22, 2004. The maximum fine may be increased to twice the
gain derived from the crime or twice the loss suffered by the
victims of the crime, if either of those amounts is greater than
the statutory maximum fine.
Today’s case stems from a continuing
investigation being conducted by the Antitrust Division’s San Francisco Field Office and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation in San Francisco.
Three
top executives of Daicel Chemical Industries Ltd., a large
Japanese chemical producer, were indicted today by a federal
grand jury for participating in an international price-fixing
conspiracy in the food preservatives industry, the Department of
Justice announced. In addition, Daicel has agreed to plead guilty
and to pay a $53 million criminal fine for its role in the same
conspiracy.
In the
indictment, filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco, the
grand jury charged Kunio Kanai, current Managing Director of
Daicel, and Hirohisa Ikeda and Takayasu Miyasaka, both current
executive officers of Daicel, with conspiring with other
corporate and individual co-conspirators to suppress competition
by fixing the prices and allocating the volumes of sorbates to be
sold in the United States and elsewhere from 1979 to 1996. All
three defendants are Japanese citizens.
At
the same time, separate charges were also filed in U.S. District
Court in San Francisco today against Daicel Chemical Industries
Ltd., of Tokyo, Japan for its participation in the sorbates
price-fixing and volume-allocation conspiracy. As part of its
plea agreement, which must be approved by the court, Daicel has
agreed to cooperate with the ongoing sorbates investigation.
The
conspiracy affected nearly $1 billion in U.S. commerce. Roughly
$200 million worth of sorbates -- which include potassium sorbate
and sorbic acid -- are sold annually worldwide. Sorbates are
chemical preservatives used primarily in high-moisture and
high-sugar foods such as cheese and other dairy products, baked
goods, and other processed foods.
"The
charges filed today against these high-level Japanese executives
makes it clear that no individual who participates in
international cartels that defraud American businesses and
consumers is beyond the reach of the law," said Joel I.
Klein, Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Department's
Antitrust Division.
The
indictment and information charge the defendants and
co-conspirators with:
---
agreeing to charge sorbate prices at agreed-upon levels and to
increase those prices accordingly;
--
agreeing to allocate among the major sorbates producers the
volumes of sorbates to be sold by each;
--
issuing price announcements and quotations in accordance with the
agreements; and
--
participating in meetings to monitor and enforce adherence to the
agreed-upon prices and sales volumes.
The
indictment further charges that, among other activities, the
three Daicel executives and their co-conspirators attempted to
conceal the activities of the conspiracy by avoiding holding
meetings in the U.S., agreeing to stagger the order and timing of
pricing announcements, and agreeing to destroy evidence of
conspiracy meetings.
"The
successful prosecution of the sorbates cartel, even in light of
the sophisticated efforts used by the conspirators to avoid
detection, should make it clear that no international cartel that
defrauds American businesses and consumers is beyond detection
and successful prosecution," said James M. Griffin, the
Antitrust Division's Deputy Assistant Attorney General for
Criminal Enforcement.
Daicel
is the fourth company to be charged with participating in the
sorbates conspiracy, following Eastman Chemical Company, Hoechst
AG, and Nippon Gohsei. The $53 million fine against Daicel would
bring the total fines imposed in this investigation to more than
$120 million.
Daicel
and the three individual defendants are charged with violating
Section 1 of the Sherman Act, which carries a maximum fine of $10
million for corporations, and a maximum penalty of three years
imprisonment and a $350,000 fine for individuals.
The
maximum fine for both corporations and individuals may be
increased to twice the gain derived from the crime or twice the
loss suffered by the victims of the crime, if either of those
amounts is greater than the statutory maximum fine.
Today's
charges are the result of an investigation being conducted by the
Antitrust Division's San Francisco Field Office and the Federal
Bureau of Investigation in San Francisco. The matter was
originally referred to the Department of Justice by the Federal
Trade Commission after it was determined that the conduct
involved was likely criminal.

Settlement Payment
(1) On March 16, 2000, the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Daicel (U.S.A.), Inc. entered into a settlement
agreement with plaintiffs in a U.S. Federal class action
civil case seeking compensatory damages related to an alleged
cartel in the sale of sorbic acid and potassium sorbate. The
Company and Daicel (U.S.A.), Inc. paid a settlement amount of
Yen 2,852 million, which was included in other expenses in
the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the
year ended March 31, 2000.
(2) In the United States, the Company and Daicel (U.S.A.),
Inc. have settled with the U.S. Department of Justice on the
alleged anticompetitive practices under U.S. anti-trust law
with regard to the sales of sorbic acid and potassium
sorbate. The Company and Daicel (U.S.A.), Inc. have reached
settlement agreements on class action suits brought by
indirect purchasers in certain states. In Canada, the Company
has settled with Canadian Bureau of Industry on the alleged
anti-competitive practices under Canadian competition law
with regard to the sales of sorbic acid and potassium
sorbate.
Under these settlements the Company and Daicel (U.S.A.), Inc.
made total of Yen 6,557 million (US$52,879 thousand), which were
included in other expenses in the accompanying consolidated
statement of income for the year ended March 31, 2001.
A few civil suits concerning the alleged anti-competitive
practices remain unsettled in the United States and Canada.
The Company is trying to solve the remaining suits as earlier
as possible, and does not believe that the Company’s possible payments, if any,
will have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements.
Three
top executives of Ueno Fine Chemicals Industry Ltd. and an
executive from the Japanese chemical giant Daicel Chemical
Industries Ltd. were indicted today by a federal grand jury
for participating in a 17-year international price-fixing
conspiracy in the food preservatives industry, the Department
of Justice announced. In addition, Ueno, a
Japanese chemical producer, has agreed to plead guilty and to
pay an $11 million criminal fine for its role in the same
conspiracy.
The conspiracy affected nearly $1 billion in U.S. commerce.
Roughly $200 million worth of sorbates -- which include
potassium sorbate and sorbic acid -- are sold annually
worldwide. Sorbates are chemical preservatives used primarily
in high-moisture and high-sugar foods such as cheese and
other dairy products, baked goods, and other processed foods.
In the indictment, filed in U.S. District Court in San
Francisco, the grand jury charged Yuji Komatsu, a member of
Ueno's Board of Directors; Yoshihiko Katsuyama, general
manager of the Sales Department in Ueno's Chemical Division; Wakao
Shinoda, a sales manager in Ueno's Chemical
Division; and Hitoshi Hayashi, a salesman
in Daicel's Organic Chemicals Division, with
conspiring with other corporate and individual
co-conspirators to suppress competition by fixing the prices
and allocating the volumes of sorbates to be sold in the
United States and elsewhere from 1979 to 1996. All four
executives are Japanese citizens.
At the same time, a separate charge was also filed in U.S.
District Court in San Francisco against Ueno Fine Chemicals
Industry Ltd., of Osaka, Japan, for its participation in the
sorbates price-fixing and volume-allocation conspiracy. As
part of its plea agreement, which must be approved by the
court, Ueno has agreed to cooperate with the prosecution of
the individual sorbates defendants.
Ueno is the fifth company to be charged with participating in
the sorbates conspiracy, following Eastman
Chemical Company, Hoechst AG, Nippon Gohsei, and Daicel. The $11
million fine against Ueno would bring the total fines imposed
in this investigation to more than $130 million.
Tennessee's
Eastman and Hoechst of Germany are the two main sorbate
producers in the U.S.
Eastman pleaded
guilty to a criminal antitrust violation on Sept. 30, 1998,
and agreed to pay an $11-million fine for participating in an
international price-fixing scheme in the sorbates industry.
As part of the plea, Eastman agreed to cooperate in a further
Dept. Of Justice investigation.
On May 5, Hoechst and one of its marketing
managers were charged and later pleaded guilty to similar
price-fixing allegations. Hoechst and its manager agreed to
pay fines of $36 million and $250,000, respectively.
Nippon
Gohsei, a large Japanese chemical producer,
today agreed to plead guilty and pay a $21 million
criminal fine for participating in a 17-year
international conspiracy to suppress and eliminate
competition in the food preservatives industry.
In a one-count Information, filed today in U.S. District
Court in San Francisco, the Department of Justice charged
Nippon Gohsei and Hiromi Ito, the former Marketing and
Sales Director of Nippon Gohsei's Fine Chemicals Business
Department, with conspiring to fix, raise, and maintain
prices, and allocate market shares on sorbates sold by them
and unnamed co- conspirators from 1979 to 1996. In addition
to the $21 million fine against the corporation, Hiromi Ito
has agreed to plead guilty and pay a $350,000 fine for his role
in the conspiracy. As part of the plea agreements, Nippon
Gohsei and Hiromi Ito have agreed to cooperate in the ongoing
government investigation.

PKN ORLEN is Poland's
and Central Europe's largest refiner of crude oil and
marketer of world-class petroleum and related products. We
operate a network of more than 1,900 petrol stations in
Poland, almost 500 outlets in Germany and over 330 station in
the Czech Republic.
Petrochemia was
established as a State enterprise in December 1959 to build
and manage a refinery adjacent to the Friendship pipeline
which was being built at the same time to connect Western
Siberia, Belarus and the Ukraine to Poland and Germany. The
refinery began production in 1964 and, in 1968, its
operations were expanded to include the processing of crude
oil into fuels, lubricant base oils and bitumen and the
processing of refinery gases, gasolines and other
hydrocarbons into a range of semi-finished products,
detergents and plastics. In 1970, the refinery began
producing petrochemicals.
In June 1993,
Petrochemia was transformed from a State-owned enterprise
into a joint stock company wholly owned by the Polish State
Treasury and assumed the assets and liabilities of the former
State-owned enterprise.
The petrochemical
production of PKN ORLEN in Poland is concentrated in Basell Orlen Polyolefins, a joint venture with Basell
Europe Holdings, the world's leading manufacturer of
polyolefins. The JV is capable of producing 400 ttpa of
polypropylene (PP) and 470 ttpa of polyethylene (PE)of which 150
ttpaaccounts forLDPE and 320
ttpa for HDPE.
Our plant has a
nominal capacity of 2,500 metric tons per day, achieving
roughly 900,000 metric tons per year. It is located on Bioko
Island in Equatorial Guinea, on which is also located
Malabo, the country's capital city.
OWNERSHIP
Subsidiaries
of Noble Energy, Inc. and Marathon Oil
Company
each own 45% of Atlantic Methanol Production Company, L.L.C.
The remaining 10% is held by SONAGAS GE (Sociedad Nacional de
Gas de G.E.).
In the U.S., subsidiaries of Samedan and Marathon each also
hold 50% ownership in the U.S. companies, AMPCO Marketing,
L.L.C. and AMPCO Services, L.L.C.
The Marathon holdings
were purchased from the original joint venture partner, CMS
Energy, on January 3, 2002.
HISTORY
Previously,
approximately 100 million cubic feet per day of natural gas
was being flared as a result of condensate and gas liquids
production in the coastal waters of the region. Our two
original primary owners, Samedan Oil Corporation and
CMS Energy,
concluded that methanol production was the best approach to
monetize this natural gas as well as increase the recovery of
the gas liquids products.
By December 2000, pre-commissioning and commissioning
activity began on a system-by-system basis. Startup lasted 40
days and culminated with commercial production in late April
2001.
