Cooling Tower Depot, Inc. was recently awarded the contract to install one of the largest cooling towers purchased for the United States recently. This Cooling Tower Installation is part of an $8.9 billion ethane cracker project located in Southwest Louisiana. This world scale ethane cracker will produce 1.5 million tons of ethylene annually, and will triple the existing plant’s chemical production capacity.
The Southwest Louisiana Economic Development Alliance has estimated the cracker project would create 5,000 construction jobs and 500 permanent jobs.
Cooling Tower Depot, Inc. is honored to supply and install such a large scale cooling tower system for this world scale ethane cracker.
Construction of the facility is underway, and the company expects that the facility will achieve beneficial operation in 2018
