Cairo-Orascom Construction Industries (OCI) said Feb. 7 that its fertilizer plants have continued to produce at normal rates. Several export shipments have been completed this week, including 52,000 mt of urea. OCI said urea is sold out through mid-March. Two ammonia vessels totaling 38,500 mt were expected to complete loading soon. OCI said that work has resumed at its headquarters office. It said work at its construction group has resumed at 50 locations across Egypt, representing almost 90 percent of the total work sites as of Feb. 6. Certain sites remain closed due to the joint venture nature of the projects. OCI said it is actively communicating with partners and clients to resume work on these remaining sites. OCI said that international operations across both its construction and fertilizer groups were unaffected by the events in Egypt and have continued to operate normally.
