To: shove_it

Thanks, I agree with what they said.

“The chicken-and-egg problem”

This is the reason I would like to see the Gas-To-Liquids process by Shell, Sasol and/or others to work economically in the US (without subsidies).

If we can use existing vehicles, delivery and distribution infrastructure, only the product needs to be supplied at a competitive price. It doesn’t force consumers to spend money prior to being able to use it.

I don’t actually care which would “win”. My career path is one that would likely benefit from either gaining a market share. Anything of increased oil/gas/petrochem domestic infrastructure is good for me both as a consumer and as worker in the industry. I’ve done a little more gas work than oil over the years. Currently I’m 100% in Alaskan Oil field production, but a significant amount of our projects involve getting more gas to the Kuparuk field area to power the infrastructure.
