Established in 2006 and based in Houston TX, SGC Energia Co., LLC, is one of North America’s leading small-scale GTL technology developers utilizing the Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) process. The company focuses on monetizing undervalued energy sources by transforming them into clean fuels and high-value chemicals.
Juniper, SGC Energia’s first commercial-scale 1,100 bpd facility, under construction in Westlake, LA, is expected to be fully operational in the second half of 2017. Juniper will convert natural gas into ultra-high quality, pure paraffinic waxes used in a broad spectrum of applications. The plant will also produce zero-sulfur light and middle distillates for use in the US transportation and chemicals industries.
