KIEV, Jan. 29 - A fall in ethylene sales on the European markets could lead to a sharp cut in production of the main types of products or a full stoppage of Karpatnaftokhim Ltd. in Kalush Ivano-Frankivsk region in February, the head of its production and control department, Mykola Sorokhteya, has told Interfax-Ukraine.

"A fall in sales of our products on the European ethylene market has led to the fact that Karpatnaftokhim had to approve lower targets for processing pyrolized materials and production for February compared to the annual target," he said.
