Strobel Energy Group Selected to Design & Construct Prairie Catalytic Ethyl Acetate Facility in Columbus, Nebraska

CLARKS, Neb., July 28, 2017

The Prairie Catalytic production facility will be located adjacent to the Archer Daniels Midland Company's (NYSE: ADM) Corn Processing Plant in Columbus, Nebraska which will supply the project with Bio-Ethanol feedstock and other services. Strobel has initiated the detailed engineering design and will begin construction of the facility in Q3 2017 with commissioning and production expected within approximately one year. HELM AG, (www.helmag.com) based in Hamburg, Germany and Piscataway, NJ, is one of the world's largest chemical marketing companies, has executed an off-take agreement for 100% of the Ethyl Acetate produced at the Prairie Catalytic facility.

According to Steve Strobel, CEO of Strobel Energy Group: "This project allows us to execute on all of our core competencies. From detailed engineering, to fabrication and procurement of structural and mechanical components incorporating our customers process technology, utilization of our R, S & U stamp certifications, QA/QC process, EH&S program and our ability to self-perform civil and mechanical portions of the scope while putting Nebraskans to work right in our backyard.  We are excited about this challenge and look forward to executing on time and within budget."
