US: LafargeHolcim upgrades terminal in West Virginia for oil well cement market

摘要

LafargeHolcim has upgraded its terminal at Weirton in West Virginia following a 10-year furlough. The site will be used to store and distribute oil well cement products for markets in the Appalachian region. "We have made a significant investment in the Weirton terminal in direct response to the growing needs of our energy industry customers. Demand for access to our oil well cement has increased dramatically, yet existing distribution channels had grown congested," said Jamie M Gentoso, chief executive officer (CEO) of US Cement operations.
