It suggests that a company such as “PetroChina could buy the refinery, while Ineos would retain the polymer and petro-chemical processing plants located on the same site”. But worryingly from Ineos’ point of view, it quotes a PetroChina official as saying that “downstream business has a poor margin nowadays and talks can take a really long time”.
