Air Liquide (AL) and Shell Chemicals recently signed renewal contracts for the supply of oxygen, itrogen, steam and electricity to Shell’s Scotford facility near Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, Canada.

To support this renewed long-term commitment, AL will further enhance its Scotford site operations, which will also enable future growth in this key industrial basin.

AL will invest in its Scotford site to enhance its operational efficiency. This will enable AL to provide additional long-term value, while continuing to deliver safe, high quality and reliable supply to the Shell Chemicals facility.

Michael J. Graff, executive vice president, AL group, said “The renewal contracts demonstrates trust and confidence in AL to create value and deliver long-term performance to our customers. AL’s Scotford complex will be able to support future growth in the region.”
