Terra Nitrogen Company LP said April 13 that the turnaround at the Verdigris, Okla., complex is complete. It represented approximately one-half of the production capacity at the nitrogen complex. The turnaround of the ammonia plant took approximately nine weeks, and the turnaround of the UAN plant took approximately eleven weeks. The turnaround work included upgrade projects to improve the production capacity and efficiency of the units.
“We are pleased to have restarted ammonia and UAN production following the completion of our maintenance and upgrade project,” said Phil Koch, senior vice president, manufacturing for Terra Nitrogen GP.
