West Coast Olefins is planning to build a $5.6-B grassroots petrochemical complex in Prince George, British Columbia. The company plans to build the facility in the BCR Industrial Area in Prince George. The facility would produce ethylene and polyethylene. According to the Vancouver Sun, the facility would consist of:
- An NGL recovery plant, with feedstock to originate from Enbridge's Westcoast Pipeline
- A 1-MMtpy ethylene plant
- A polyethylene plant
- offsites and additional infrastructure.
The complex could include a monoethylene glycol plant, as well.
West Coast Olefins has started the formal regulatory review process and I s planning to make a final investment decision by the end of 2020. If greenlighted, the complex is scheduled to begin operations in 2023.
