Shell starts production at Stones in the Gulf of Mexico; deepest offshore oil and gas project

Green Car Congress

SEPTEMBER 6, 2016

The host facility for the world’s deepest offshore oil and gas project is a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel. Stones, which is 100% owned and operated by Shell, is the company’s second producing field from the Lower Tertiary geologic frontier in the Gulf of Mexico, following the start-up of Perdido in 2010.

In July 2010, Gevo successfully produced isobutanol from fermentable sugars derived from cellulosic biomass and also successfully converted the cellulosic isobutanol into isobutylene and paraffinic kerosene. The process technology for converting isobutanol to hydrocarbons is low-energy input and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 85%.
