They basically need one 230-mile pipeline to connect to a significant natural gas hub at Malin, Oregon. Doesn't seem that high a hurdle at all. Williams is their partner here, and they know what they are doing (they run 15,000 miles of pipeline in the US). Here's the needed pipeline: pacificconnectorgp.com And here's a decent overview of the whole project: jordancoveenergy.com Alberta-based natural gas is increasingly stuck in place as the pipelines shift to take account of the new US-based supplies. So no shortage of gas to feed this facility, and the fact that a lot of the gas will be Canadian is probably a plus from a political perspective. They have to build a significant-sized (420 MW) gas-fired power plant to run this facility - I had no idea that liquefaction was that power-intensive. Peter
