John Houghtaling just inked a 28 billion dollar gas deal with China last week so it could be John HQing his company in New Orleans as it's a huge freaking deal he inked which will require thousands of employees.

From Houghtaling’s Wiki...

quote:

Houghtaling was also involved in the energy sector, where was CEO of Ocean Therapy Solutions, an oil service company founded with Kevin Costner that provided devices that assisted with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. In 2013 he co-founded and became CEO of American Ethane.[4]

In July of 2017 American Ethane Company signed a definitive 20 year take or pay fuel sales agreement to supply annually 2.5 million tons of ethane to Nanshan Group.

"The volume of ethane in the reported contract with Nanshan Group will include 8 Very Large Ethane Carriers to be built for the annual delivery. Deliveries are expected to begin in 2020 upon completion of infrastructure in the United States and China. Nanshan is in development of an ethane cracker to produce ethylene, a feedstock for plastics. " [5

While it was for sale, the line to get in open house was down the block. A lot of movies are filmed there.

It’s probably the NASA Michaud faculty in New Orleans East. There was a press conference about it a couple weeks ago.

There are going to start building rockets again or something
