The development of the Shell Middle Distillate Synthesis (SMDS) process began in 1983, when a pilot plant was constructed at the Shell Research and Technology Centre in Amsterdam. This eventually culminated in the design and construction of the Shell gas-to-liquids facility in Bintulu, Malaysia, which was completed and...

Based on research and development work for GTL conducted in the Shell Research and Technology Centre in Amsterdam since the 1970s the world s first commercial GTL plant of its type was commissioned in Bintulu, Sarawak in 1993. It was designed for 12,500 barrels per day of high quality GTL products. Production was interrupted in 1997 due to an explosion in the Air Separation Unit, caused by high levels of air pollution from massive forest fires biiming in Soirth East Asia at the time. Reconstruction was completed in 2000 and production resinned. Numerous improvements were made in the reconstruction and the performance reached world-class operational reliability, where it remains today. A debottlenecking was implemented in 2003 to increase the capacity to 14,700 barrels per day.
