GTL Americas
Little Rock, Arkansas, United States

GTL Americas is currently headquartered in Little Rock Arkansas and is developing a 41,600 barrel per day gas-to-liquids (GTL) facility to be constructed in Jefferson County. Using long-proven Fischer-Tropsch (FT) technology, the GTL plant will convert pipeline natural gas into clean liquid transportation fuels (High Cetane Synthetic Fuel [serves as a non-toxic, biodegradable and ultra-clean substitute for diesel and jet fuel] and Naphtha). This is a world-class project with a construction workforce reaching over 2500 and permanent staff numbering in the range of 225 to 250 employees. The GTL Americas Pine Bluff plant will be the largest single industrial project ever built in Arkansas. The project is taking advantage of the unique benefits of a robust natural gas pipeline infrastructure network that can transport gas feedstock to the plant from mid-continent gas producers. Product marketing and distribution of the clean fuels from this plant will be by truck, rail, and marine barge and will have the ability to connect to a product pipeline to supply customers both regionally as well as markets throughout the US and internationally.

GTL Americas is developing a commercial-scale natural gas-to-liquids (GTL) project in Jefferson County, Arkansas.  With the abundance of clean, sustainable and affordable natural gas resources in the United States and Canada, North America has enormous potential to realize significant economic and energy security benefits from converting domestic natural gas resources into liquid transportation fuels while reducing dependence on offshore petroleum imports.

Strategy

GTLA believes there are immediate solutions to America’s energy bottleneck and we are committed to deploying all of our resources to achieve a sustainable and secure energy future. This solution involves using proven GTL technology to convert clean natural gas into ultra-clean liquid transportation fuels. The same petroleum-based fuels and industrial chemicals that power the global economy can be produced efficiently and economically from abundant natural gas. We seek to work with the best industry partners to employ 21st-century technologies that unlock the economic potential of North America’s domestic energy resources.
