Just read the Bentek report on nat gas. Based on Benteks projections for 2020, an additional 20 nat gas processing plants the size of Stateline I and II would be needed, or 8 plants the six of Tioga's Hess plant. Talk about growth.
ReplyDeleteAnyone know the nat gas consumption rate for the ammonia plant proposed for Jamestown? There could be more of those plants coming, especially with all the nat gas coming from Utica/Marcellus plugging up eastern markets and ND nat gas pipelines limiting out state movements. Could see a lot of nat gas power plants in ND or nat gas intensive industries just because the nat gas may end up being land locked.
The rail industry caught me by surprise in the Bakken, and so did the natural gas story. There may be yet more surprises regarding the latter.
DeleteBruce, some of my favorite links are the "construction bid" sites of upcoming projects. You can find all kinds of upcoming construction projects for different parts of the country. In the Dodge Lead Center site

select ND and enter project name (use WILLIAMS) for Williams county...and it will list project bids for upcoming projects. Before it was even announced, Buffalo Wild Wings, Love's, 12plex movie thaaters, etc... were listed. I see now there are 4 new apartments buildings coming on line (2 appear to be 5story buildings with parking garages underneath) Also found a 240 room hotel. Check it out, pretty interesting. Another good one is BidClerk

Note: these sites allow you to take a peak at only ONE project at a time and then it prompts you to register. But, I found if you close out of the web page and go back in, you can review a different project without registering.
ReplyDeleteThank you. When I get a chance later. I will take a look at them. Interesting web links, to say the least.
