Shell's state-of-the-art proprietary Gas to Liquids process, the Shell Middle Distillates Synthesis (SMDS), is currently used in Shell's Bintulu plant in Malaysia. This is the world's first and only integrated low-temperature Fischer-Tropsch plant. The three main process stages used in SMDS are common to most Gas to Liquids technologies. In SMDS they are called syngas manufacture, synthesis and hydrocracking.
