22 000 barrels of propane isnt much from what I understand, alberta produces hundreds of thousands of barrels of propane, butane, pentane etc. Everyday. Thats why i find it soo amazing 22 000 barrels can feed such a beast of a plant. 4.2 billion is usually greek for 8-10 billion total cost in alberta, lol
Once you make propylene or polypropylene you need to rail the stuff, store it, some companies will probably make plastic widgets with it..... its an industry the size of the ethane industry, look how big those operations have gotten. Nova chemicals, dow chemical, all the feeder plants.
