Southwest Airlines posted a news release announcing their intent to purchase approximately 3000 gallons of jet fuel per year from Red Rocks Biofuels starting in 2016. Red Rocks Biofuels plans to build a refinery in Lakeview Oregon where they will convert woody biomass into biofuel using the Fischer Tropsch process.

Articles announcing the deal are available from the Denver Business Journal and the Dallas news.
