Huntsman Olefins Plant
Image: © Mick Garratt Taken: 24 Jan 2006
A blatant view bag taken from the top of Eston Nab. Wilton International Site was formerly owned by ICI but is now in the hands of several operating companies and the facilities management company. It is entirely privately owned and since changing jobs I no longer have a pass to get onto the site although even if I did taking and publishing photos would not be popular if caught. This particular square is dominated by the Olefins plant operated by Huntsman Petrochemicals. Update Nov 2010: Huntsman's operations on Teesside have now been taken over by the Saudi company Sabic Petrochemicals.
