Polyethylene Information Exchange Program
Licensees have greatly valued and actively participated in the Chevron Phillips Chemical Polyethylene Information Exchange program. This program provides the opportunity for licensees to learn the latest commercial developments and technological improvements available in the MarTECH™ loop slurry process. Every two years, we host an Information Exchange Meeting (IEM) where active licensees and Chevron Phillips Chemical manufacturing, research and technology personnel gather to discuss and share the latest commercial developments and technological improvements. A typical IEM has more than 100 participants and vendors.
Other benefits of participating in the Information Exchange Program include:
- Access to Chevron Phillips Chemical subject matter experts through ongoing correspondence and onsite support as needed
- Improved operations through open sharing of best practices
- Process improvement reports developed by Chevron Phillips Chemical and other licensees that are applicable to existing plants
- The latest product improvements, which allow licensees to improve margins through enhanced physical properties and better processing
