Antero Resources plans to be the anchor ethane supplier for a proposed cracker plant in West Virginia. Antero announced an agreement to provide 30,000 bpd of ethane, to the plant, if it is built. Brazilian petrochemical giant Odebrecht is exploring the possibility of building the ethane cracker and three polyethylene plants in Wood County. The complex would be known as Ascent, which stands for Appalachian Shale Cracker Enterprise. Antero is an active driller in the Ohio and West Virginia region’s Marcellus and Utica shale gas ranges.
