A Gamble in Qatar: Royal Dutch Shell is making a huge — and risky — bet on technology that transforms natural gas to diesel fuel
Shell started experimenting with GTL technology during the energy crisis of the 1970s, when it began to search for an alternative to gasoline. In 1993, Shell opened its first GTL demonstration plant in Bintulu, Malaysia.

It took three years to repair the damage.
