A proposed crude oil and biofuel refinery at Washington’s Port of Longview is again being considered by the port.

Port of Longview officials reported Tuesday, May 26, that port staff is reconsidering the project after declaring it dormant the prior month. The project was first proposed to the port in mid-2014.

If built, the facility will receive shipments of light sweet crude oil from Bakken shale oil fields by rail, then refine and export an estimated 45,000 barrels per day by barge to regional markets.
