Sadara Basic Services Co. announced today, April 13, 2021, that its parent company, Sadara Chemical Co., reinstated its mixed feed cracker unit on April 11, after the completion of unplanned repair work that began on March 16.

Accordingly, downstream production units have been fully restored, the company said in a bourse statement.

The repairs were completed faster than initially anticipated and actions were taken to mitigate financial and customer impact, it said.
