CF Industries Holdings Inc. notified customers March 31 that it had suspended loading of UAN-32 and UAN-28 at its Woodward, Okla., facility until further notice. No other details were provided. This is the second time in less than a month that UAN loading at Woodward has been suspended. Back on March 9, CF alerted customers that UAN loading at that location was suspended, but the company followed that announcement with another on March 12 that UAN loading had resumed on an allocated basis.
UAN capacity at Woodward is 825,000 st/y. The Woodward facility also produces 440,000 st/y of ammonia, but only 100,000 st of that is available for sale as a finished product, with the rest upgraded to UAN.
