The foundation stone for the project is expected to be laid in the second quarter of 2026. Reliance has also signed a 20-year agreement to purchase oil produced from the refinery.<\/p>\n<p>In a post on Truth Social, Trump described the initiative as a \u201chistoric $300 billion deal\u201d and named Reliance as a partner in the project. However, AFR did not name the company directly and said it had received a nine-figure investment at a ten-figure valuation from a \u201cmajor global company.\u201d Reliance has not issued any immediate comment on the announcement.<\/p>\n<p>Once completed, it will become the first major new refinery project in the United States since the Marathon refinery facility in Garyville, Louisiana, came online in 1977.<\/p>\n<p>Neither Trump nor AFR has provided detailed financial information or a timeline for the project\u2019s completion. Industry experts estimate the project could cost between $4 billion and $5 billion.
