Egyptian Chemical Industries (Kima) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to restructure the joint loan for its Ammonia and Urea Fertilizers Plant, according to a statement.
Kima’s existing loan stands at $292 million, in addition to $1.92 billion obtained from a consortium of Egyptian banks, including the National Bank of Egypt (NBE), Banque du Caire, Banque Misr, and others.
The loan was used to finance Kima’s project in Aswan, which is currently operating by 80% for the ammonia production line and by 104% for the urea line.
Kima Fertilizer Complex is expected to have a production capacity of 1,200 tonnes/day of ammonia as well as 1,575 tonnes/day of urea.
