Yara restarts production in Le Havre

Oslo-Yara International ASA said Feb. 25 it has decided to restart production of ammonia and urea at its site in Le Havre, France, in mid-March. The Le Havre facility has an annual production capacity of 400,000 mt of ammonia and 350,000 mt of urea. Yara, which owns 100 percent of Le Havre ammonia production and 47.85 percent of urea production, said the decision to restart production reflects improved international urea prices and lower energy cost.
