DJ Mitsui & Co To Build Oil, Petrochemical Terminal in Houston
By Mari Iwata
TOKYO--Mitsui & Co. (8031.TO) said Wednesday it will invest more than $150 million to build a new oil and petrochemical tank terminal in Houston, Texas in a bid to cash in on rising demand from manufacturers for less expensive raw materials thanks to the shale gas and oil production boom in the U.S.
The Japanese trading company plans to build about 10 tanks to store refined oil products and commodity petrochemicals and three berths to receive tankers, a company spokesman said.
The terminal is slated to start commercial operations in the second quarter of 2015.
