re: #111 Thanos

Walter, why are you trying to pretend that Bechtel == “Big Energy” It’s as disingenuous as the lefties saying “Haliburton == Big Energy” when attacking Cheney.

It’s a bigass construction and contracting company, and they are as happy to build windmills as they are Oil pipelines, they are as happy to build bridges, buildings, and cranes as they are Oil platforms.

Because it’s as good as a connection as some of the other guilt by association memes that are floating around out there.

For more than 30 years, Bechtel has been a worldwide leader in chemical, petrochemical, and LNG plant construction. In today’s highly competitive market, the company’s experience with a broad range of technologies and optimized plant designs sets it apart.

Bechtel-built facilities encompass virtually every process technology available. This expertise—coupled with our own proprietary technologies and strategic alliances with process licensors and vendors—makes Bechtel uniquely qualified to deliver optimum performance and low installed costs on both new construction and upgrades.

It looks to me that Bechtel has a lot in stake in seeing the oil and gas industry continue to prosper.

Tell me they don’t?
