Some MEG plants in the US were shut down last Friday

Some MEG plants in the US were shut down last Friday as power facilities were closed due to the extremely cold weather, including Lotte, MEGlobal, Sasol, Indorama and Shell. The restart depends on the recovery of power facilities.

The power facilities might be restored gradually around the end of this week, and if there is no substantial damage to the MEG plants, restart can be arranged gradually, and we will pay attention to the actual situation of the plant at that time.
