Greenview signs a Memorandum of Understanding with Interprovincial Fuel Solutions Ltd.
Construction of petrochemical facility to manufacture synthetic low-carbon dioxide and dispose of excess effluent carbon dioxide via permanent carbon capture and sequestration.
IFS’s Synthetic Gasoline Facility has the capability to produce 5,600 barrels per onstream-day of drop-in low-carbon ultra-clean synthetic gasoline that is in line with the current and 2030 fuel regulations required in Canada. The Synthetic Gasoline Facility will also produce 250,000 tonnes per year of pure pre-combustion of carbon dioxide, which will be permanently sequestered, and clean hydrogen, which will be used as a fuel for clean and no emissions combustion. IFS will utilize commercially proven technology for its facility to produce high-octane synthetic motor-grade gasoline for consumption by the transportation industry, which requires no new distribution infrastructure, thus fueling the transition to a low-carbon economy. IFS anticipates the development of its Synthetic Gasoline Facility to commence in 2025, with construction to commence in 2026.
The planned IFS Synthetic Gasoline Facility in the GIG will generate approximately 600 regional construction positions with an estimated 50-70 full-time positions once construction is complete. IFS company executives anticipate that this project will proceed quickly once the final investment decision has been reached and a land purchase agreement has been signed with the MD of Greenview.
Reeve Tyler Olsen underscored the significance of this agreement for the region.
“This gasoline will have the lowest carbon intensity score in the market, with the majority of this potentially consumed within the Grande Prairie Region. Taking locally produced natural gas and upgrading it to gasoline and hydrogen follows the exact vision for the GIG. This development will create hundreds of jobs, local business opportunities, and substantial taxes municipally, provincially, and federally. The development of hydrogen is very exciting and highlights that this region is moving in the right direction.”
IFS is the third major investor in the GIG, spearheading GIG to be on track to become one of Canada’s leading net-zero, eco-industrial developments in Alberta for natural gas processing and manufacturing with low-carbon emissions.
In the first quarter of 2022, the MD of Greenview signed an MOU with Cerilon GTL Inc. to construct a $2.8 billion dollar Ultra-Low sulphur diesel and jet fuel facility. In late 2021, Greenview signed an agreement with Northern Petro Chemical Corporation to construct a $2.5 billion Blue Methanol and Blue Ammonia production facility.
About Us
The Greenview Industrial Gateway (GIG) is a large-scale industrial development focused on exploring and processing natural gas. Located in the northwest area of the Municipal District of Greenview, the GIG is on track to become one of Canada’s leading net-zero, eco-industrial developments, setting the gold standard for low carbon emission for Natural Gas processing and manufacturing. This development is the foundation for the opportunity to create jobs and support a strong economy with the global effort to contain carbon emissions.
