The Petro-Chemical Complex of Odessa, Tex., consists of El Paso Products Co.'s Butadiene, Styrene, Olefin, and Nylon Processing facilities; General Tire and Rubber Co.'s Odessa rubber plant; Rexall's polyethylene plant and Shell Oil Co.'s crude-oil refinery. These facilities require large volumes of water in their daily operation and this water requirement is primarily supplied through El Paso Products Co.'s agreement with the city of Odessa to process the city's sewage water effluent for resuse by the Complex. In 1962, an agreement was negotiated between El Paso Products Co. and Pan American Petroleum Corp. to construct, at the Complex site, a waste-water treating plant to reclaim and treat the industrial waste water for use by Pan American Petroleum Corp. as a supplemental source of water for their South Cowden waterflood project. In addition, El Paso Products Co. have drilled, complete, and operate an industrial waste-water disposal well at the Odessa Complex. Subsurface disposal of excess industrial waste water at the Odessa Complex is necessary for prevention of possible contamination of groundwaters; the average cost is 2 cents per bbl for testing and disposing of the waste water.
