Ineos unveils Grangemouth 'survival plan' with job, pension cuts

LONDON, Sept 30 | Mon Sep 30, 2013 9:41am EDT

LONDON, Sept 30 (Reuters) - Ineos announced what it described as a "survival plan" on Monday to keep in operation the petrochemical plant attached to its refinery in Grangemouth, Scotland, which involved cutting jobs and changing the pension plan to reduce costs.

The company said the plant has been losing 10 million pounds ($16.1 million) per month and that its pension scheme has a 200 million pound deficit.

"The current business is unsustainable. We have worked incredibly hard to put together a survival plan that asks something of everyone," Calum MacLean, chairman of both Grangemouth Petrochemicals and Grangemouth Refining, said in a statement.

"If everyone agrees to it, Grangemouth has a future. If not, Grangemouth Petrochemicals will close."

The plan comes as the company is already in dispute with the Unite union, whose members voted last week to strike due to a disciplinary matter involving an employee at the plant.

Ferrari unveils, well, LaFerrari in Geneva

The supercar formerly known as the F70, and later the F150, will finally bear the explicit name of “LaFerrari”. It made its world debut today at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.

LaFerrari 2013
“We chose to call this model 'LaFerrari' because it is the maximum expression of what defines our company – excellence. Excellence in terms of technological innovation, performance, styling and the sheer thrill of driving. Aimed at our collectors, this is a truly extraordinary car which encompasses advanced solutions that, in the future, will find their way onto the rest of the range,” declared Ferrari President Luca di Montezemolo.

LaFerrari 2013
An 800-horsepower V12 engine combines with two electric motors and floor-mounted batteries to propel the LaFerrari from 0-100 km/h in less than three seconds. Top speed is rated at 350 km/h.

Said batteries can be charged through regenerative braking, as well as every time the engine produces more torque than necessary. The extra torque is indeed converted into electricity to extend the range.

LaFerrari 2013
Only 499 copies of the LaFerrari will be built. Stay tuned for pricing and availability.
