Shell Exec Says Ethane Cracker 98% Done, Online “Couple of Months”
It's been a loooong time coming. MDN has covered the Shell ethane cracker plant complex from the very beginning, back in 2016 (see Breaking: Shell Pulls the Trigger, PA Ethane Cracker is a Go!). We're now six years later, over 8,000 jobs created and billions of dollars spent, and within the next few months Shell will begin full operations at its ethane cracker in Monaca (Beaver County), PA.

That is sweet news!
