Air Liquide today marked the completion of a $230 million upgrade and expansion project at its Bayport industrial complex near Houston. Completed in February, the project included upgrades to four cogeneration units to increase production capacity and extend their lives and the upgrade and expansion of an air separation unit. The facility can now produce 300 megawatts of electricity and more than 1,300 metric tons of steam per hour. Air Liquide said the project created approximately 250 temporary construction jobs.
Air Liquide Bayport plant manager Dale Fritsche discussed the project with BIC Magazine in August 2014.
