One of the brightest spots on the North Slope lies 60 miles east of Prudhoe Bay, on the edge of the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve.
Point Thomson will come on line within the next few weeks, adding 10,000 barrels per day of natural gas condensate to the trans-Alaska pipeline.
This $4 billion project has been built by Alaskans with Alaska-owned companies. About 100 Alaska companies worked on Point Thomson, which holds one-fourth of the North Slope’s proven gas reserves and is critical to the success of any Alaska LNG project.
Point Thomson is the first project to be operated by ExxonMobil on the North Slope. Find out more here, or watch a video here.
