Pennsylvania Chemicals Shell Cracker Plant Project
Pennsylvania Chemicals, Shell Cracker Plant is spread across 360 acres, making it one of the largest industrial construction projects in the USA. Built on the banks of the Ohio River in Potter Township, Beaver County, the plant is expected to use ethane to produce 1.5 million tonnes of polyethene per year.
Rite Geosystems', our USA Company, provided magnetic extensometers which were installed in boreholes to monitor the settlement under four buildings.
