"So it's challenging for firms that are not completely well-financed and have a good, long-term business plan as well."

The facility was bought last year by Calgary-based private firm Value Creation Inc.

This is the second project in the area to be put on hold. Synenco shelved a multibillion-dollar upgrader in May 2007.
