Raven Petroleum is throwing out the figure of $500MM to build their proposed 50K bbl @ day plant which is substantially larger when compared to Blue dolphins' existing 15K bbl @ day facility. However, the key word in this discussion is the word existing ..because to build a new refinery from scratch, even in the oil friendly State of Texas is no slam dunk endeavor. In financial terms they're estimating it would take $500MM but in terms of the time it will take to see the first drop of refined fuel they are looking at years!
In fact the refinery has recently hit a snag...see article below;

I'm not saying the Blue Dolphin facility is worth $500MM but this proposed facility proves it wouldn't be cheap in time or money to replicate.
Perhaps finding someone, other than Carroll, to run our facility to its ability/capacity would be the real trick! ":~/
