From what I read a while back, the amount of product they put out will barely take care of the fuel needs of the local area and have almost zero impact on the overall fuel situation nationally. As to the nitrogen fertilizer plant they’re going to build, let’s hope it’s further out of town than the one that just popped in TX. That was a HUGE explosion. One the company said could NEVER happen.
Correct, at 15,000 BPD it will be one of the 10 smallest refineries in the US.
