]]> Duslo, a.s. has published a tender, number ON/PSCH/66/2026/UV, for replacing weld-in valves at its Ammonia 4 plant during turnaround work scheduled for 2027. The request for quotation is at RFQ #1 phase, was published on 6 October 2026, and accepts bids until 30 October 2026. The body does not name a contractor or valve count.

Why it matters

Maintenance tendering for the Ammonia 4 unit signals planned downtime in 2027, which could tighten local ammonia output and affect downstream fertilizer and chemical supply from the Šaľa site.

Key facts

Companies Duslo, a.s., Agrofert
Chemicals ammonia
Location Šaľa, Slovakia
Timing 2026-10-06, 2026-10-30, 2027

Market context

Ammonia is one of the most widely produced industrial chemicals, and most of it goes into nitrogen fertilizers such as urea, ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate. Other demand comes from nitric acid production, which feeds explosives, adipic acid for nylon and other polyamide chains, and a range of industrial cleaning and refrigeration uses. Because ammonia plants run continuously and are costly to restart, planned turnarounds are a normal part of operations, but they temporarily remove output from the market. Buyers of downstream fertilizers and intermediates usually watch such scheduled shutdowns closely, since a single large unit being offline can shift regional supply balances and support nearby spot prices. Plants that stay running can gain share during the outage period. Equipment such as weld-in valves is typically replaced during these windows, so tendering for it is an early indicator of when a shutdown is being prepared.
