Methanex Indefinitely Idles 850,000-Tonne Titan Methanol Plant in Trinidad and Tobago

Methanex Corporation announced on Monday that it will indefinitely idle its Titan methanol production facility in Trinidad and Tobago, effective immediately. The company cited ongoing natural gas supply constraints in the region as the primary reason for the decision, noting that the move aligns with its strategy to manage global production capacity in response to feedstock availability.

The Titan plant, which has a production capacity of 850,000 tonnes per year, will remain in a state of indefinite suspension until further notice. Methanex stated that it continues to operate its other facilities in Trinidad and Tobago, including the Atlas and Methanex Chile-linked operations, as gas supply permits. The company is currently working with its natural gas suppliers and local stakeholders to navigate the supply challenges affecting the region’s industrial sector. This operational adjustment follows a broader trend of production management across the company’s global portfolio as it balances market demand with regional resource limitations.
