DMN wrote an article about what I've been wondering about myself
I've been concerned about this with regard to the timing of the IPF and related projects-could be why SMU may be scaling back their plans

Finally, someone who actually believes that falling oil prices are not a great thing.

The main reason we have to rework the IPF is because the early program and estimates were utterly ridiculous. There is no reason why ours should be 3X the cost of the typical IPF. It will happen, and it will be a normal 30-40 million dollar facility.

Low oil prices hurt any industry pressured by imports.

I work in the oil and gas M&A world. Companies that didn't leverage properly in the halcyon days of $100/barrel are really hurting. The Houston economy has been far more dramatically impacted than here in Dallas but we are feeling throughout Texas.

which means a large portion of your labor force will be travelers and demand a per diem. I imagine it's also unionized up there while USGC is mostly non Union.
