I’m an operator at a major on the chemical side and have a couple coworkers that have been going through their hiring process.

What I’ve heard as of now is no pension/annuity, 6% Match, company pays 100% health insurance, $1000 a year towards cell phone, outside/field operators top out at $52, DCS/Board $58ish.

Starting pay and vacation time is dictated by experience. 5 years relevant operator experience can get you started at $50 and 130-160hrs.

Operators are going through 5 weeks of onboarding and some classroom training at Nunez. And will eventually be shadowing operators at their sister facility in Cameron 7-7 schedule to learn the process further.

13-1 schedule during commissioning has been thrown around but it sounds like that is going to be more of 7-7 with as much overtime as you want or can handle. Supervisors will be able to give you days off if you need them.

I used to work on the site. Money really isn't an option, they are running 24/7. With that it'll probably still be another 4 years before the plant is finished. They should be finishing up the dirt work around this time. Once the construction docks are done they will prefab everything and send it to the site by boat.

I haven't been down there but there will be an overpass from the plant to the docks.

Yeah they are wayyy ahead of dirt work. The flood wall is up all around the plant. The construction dock is finished. The 2 large tanks are going up. The product docks skeletons are built. First ship with the plant modules is due early June. Goal for first product is late 24 early 25. It's amazing what private money can do. I want to throw up when I see how long i12 in St. Tammany is taking compared to the VG project.

Nice. The flood wall was one of the first priorities. They wanted to get it up before a major hurricane hit. They did the dirt work on the spots the tanks were going to be constructed first. They have been building them for a few months now.

That whole project is insane. They are also building one in golden pass
