INEOS has confirmed that the INEOS Insight, has arrived at the INEOS plant at Grangemouth in Scotland carrying 27 500 m3 of ethane from US shale fields.
This is the very first time that ethane from US shale gas has ever been exported from the USA to the UK. It provides British industry the chance to benefit from US shale gas economics, which did so much to revitalise manufacturing in the USA.
