Tanks, Tanks, and More Tanks for Brine Producer's Louisiana Plant

---

Researched by Industrialinfo.com (Industrial Information Resources, Incorporated; Houston, Texas). Texas Brine Company LLC (Houston, Texas) is planning a major tank farm expansion for its Belle Rose, Louisiana, production plant. Six large stainless steel storage and finishing tanks up to one million gallons in size, plus additional reactors, will be installed as part of this project.

Final approvals for the nearly $30 million expansion are expected late this year. Once engineering and planning are complete this fall, construction is expected to begin in the field during the first quarter of 2006 and be complete by year’s end.

Texas Brine, in operation since 1946, is a precursor company that provides the sodium chloride brine additive to its parent company, TBC-Brinadd (Houston, Texas). Over the years, Texas Brine has become the largest independent solution-mined sodium chloride brine producer in the United States, allowing its parent company, TBC-Brinadd, to continue implementing and creating new solutions for issues concerning specialty fluid requirements and drilling worldwide within the oil and gas industry.
