Motiva has successfully placed the new C3 Splitter Towers into service at the Port Arthur Manufacturing Complex, further strengthening the integration between refining and chemicals. This expansion more than doubles our capacity to produce high purity polymer grade propylene, reaching a total capacity of approximately one billion pounds per year. Congratulations to the many departments and teams who came together to bring this project across the finish line.
