"The third quarter was impacted by a temporary loss of sales and production, but the fact that our chemical facilities were minimally impacted by the hurricanes and quickly returned to full production puts Lyondell in a good position in a tight market," said Dan Smith, Lyondell President and CEO. "Unfortunately, problems at LCR will impact their fourth quarter, but all of their major Gulf Coast chemical plants are operating as planned."
