Senator Worked to Advance Marathon-ADM Partnership, Building North Dakota’s Leadership in Agriculture & Energy
DICKINSON, N.D. – Senator John Hoeven today toured the Marathon refinery in Dickinson and discussed the company’s joint venture with ADM using North Dakota-processed soybean oil for renewable diesel production. Marathon is investing in ADM’s announced soybean crushing plant near the Spiritwood Energy Park. The plant will exclusively supply its refined soybean oil to the Dickinson refinery, which underwent a $500 million conversion to produce renewable diesel in 2020 and reached full production capacity earlier this year. The facility can produce approximately 12,000 barrels of renewable diesel per day.
