Original Post
If this doesn't blow you away, nothing will.
Population of Trenton, ND: 372 people.
Trenton, ND: a few miles southwest of Williston, ND.
Gas-to-liquids plant.
Canada-based Cerilon GTL.
But look at this, for little ol' Trenton: a $2.8 billion plant.
Will start with an initial 24,000 bpd of ultra-low sulfur diesel, and:
- military-grade jet fuel;
- naphtha,
- Group III base oils
Construction to begin in early 2023.
Infrastructure already in place:
- rail
- pipeline
- also has carbon sequestration opportunities
Company anticipates future construction phases and more facilities as part of its overall vision for the complex.
“The Cerilon GTL complex has the potential to be one of the largest economic expansion projects in the history of North Dakota,” he said. “GTL facilities support the oil industry while reducing environmental impacts. The Williams County facility will be one of many expansions that make North Dakota a leader in carbon neutrality.”If Governor Burgum had anything to do with getting this project in North Dakota, he needs to be declared governor for life.
Now, if he could only get the NDIC website working.
It’s finally happening the State is incentivizing a better future for North Dakota. Step two better railroads. Step three Manufacturing.
ReplyDeleteA $2.8 billion facility in Trenton -- this is quite incredible. I wonder if North Dakota regulators will approve water and air permit. LOL.
