From "Holding Subsidiary" to "100% Wholly-Owned Subsidiary"
Lianyungang Petrochemical is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Satellite Chemical (formerly Satellite Petrochemical, 002648), and is one of Satellite Chemical's most important core production bases.
September 2017: Satellite Petrochemical announced its plan to jointly establish "Lianyungang Petrochemical Co., Ltd." with external partners, initially holding 80% of the shares, making it a holding subsidiary.
November 30, 2017: Lianyungang Petrochemical was officially established with a registered capital of 5.6 billion yuan.
Subsequent Equity Adjustment: Satellite Petrochemical gradually increased its shareholding to 100% through acquisitions; the current equity structure is: Jiaxing Satellite Industrial Development Co., Ltd. (a wholly-owned platform of Satellite Chemical) → 100% shareholding → Lianyungang Petrochemical.
Strategic Positioning: Satellite Chemical's Core Carrier for "C2 Light Hydrocarbon Integration"
1. Group Overall Strategy
Satellite Chemical (formerly known as "Satellite Petrochemical" before 2021) is the only private chemical leader in China with a complete integrated light hydrocarbon industrial chain encompassing both C2 (ethane) and C3 (propane):
C3 Chain (Jiaxing/Pinghu Base): Propane → Propylene → Acrylic acid and esters, polymer emulsions, etc. (Traditional main business).
C2 Chain (Lianyungang Base): Ethane → Ethylene → Polyethylene (PE), Ethylene oxide/ethylene glycol (EO/EG), Styrene, Acrylonitrile, etc. (New core growth pole).
Positioning: Lianyungang Petrochemical is a key step for Satellite Chemical to leap from C3 to C2 and realize its "light hydrocarbon integration + new materials" strategy.
2. Project Background and Investment
Project Name: 4 Million Tons/Year Olefin Comprehensive Utilization Demonstration Industrial Park (Key Project of Jiangsu Province).
Total Investment: Approximately RMB 33.5 billion; Main plant area: 3,845 mu.
Construction Period: Construction commenced in May 2019; Phase I production commenced in May 2021 (China's first ethane cracking to ethylene unit); Full completion scheduled for August 2022.
Business and Capacity: Satellite Chemical's C2 Industrial Chain "Heart"
1. Core Capacity (All Belonging to Lianyungang Petrochemical)
Light Hydrocarbon Cracking (Ethane/Propane): 2.5 million tons/year (mainly ethylene)
Polyethylene (PE): 1.35 million tons/year
Ethylene Oxide/Ethylene Glycol (EO/EG): 2.19 million tons/year (largest single plant in China)
Acrylonitrile (ACN): 260,000 tons/year
Supporting Products: Styrene, Polyether Monomers, HDPE, HPPO, etc.
Total Annual Chemical Production: Over 8.5 million tons
2. Product and Downstream Synergies
Upstream: Ethane/Propane is mainly imported (relying on the advantages of Lianyungang Port), with unified procurement and logistics scheduling by the group.
Downstream:
EO/EG, Polyether Monomers: Supplying Satellite Chemical's downstream and external markets (lithium battery electrolytes, water-reducing agents, etc.).
PE, Styrene: Entering packaging, building materials, daily chemicals, etc., complementing the products of the Jiaxing base.
Technology: Utilizing internationally advanced processes (such as LyondellBasell polyethylene technology), with core technologies coordinated by the Group's R&D Center.
Group Synergy: "Dual Base" Structure (North and South)
Jiaxing (Headquarters + C3 Base): Traditional acrylic acid, polymer emulsions, and C3 derivatives; stable cash flow and mature technology.
Lianyungang (C2 Base): Bulk raw materials such as ethylene, PE, EO/EG, and new materials; large scale, strong growth potential, and high strategic importance.
Synergistic Effects:
Raw Material Complementarity: Downstream products from C3 (propylene) and C2 (ethylene) complement each other, reducing reliance on external procurement.
Technology Sharing: The Group's R&D Center (provincial-level technology center) coordinates technology development and patent layout in both locations.
Market Synergy: A unified sales team covers national and overseas markets, enhancing bargaining power.
