It's not just a question of buying the needed land. Their current investment in infrastructure is enormous. If they made the switch to methenol, all of their drilling equipment, refineries, pipelines ect would become obsolete and to make things worse (for them) they would have no one to sell them to. New infrastructure and personel retraining would be needed. The cost would be huge, it's far more profitable for them for things to stay as they are
