Data center developer Beale Infrastructure announced that it has broken ground on its $1 billion Project Clydesdale data campus in Owasso, Okla., according to datacenterdynamics.com.
Located on 506 acres north of East 76th Street North, east of North Yale Avenue, south of East 86th Street North and west of North Sheridan Road, the project will entail at least one phase with three additional phases possible. Each phase will cover approximately 200,000 sq. ft.
"Beale's announcement of a $1 billion investment in Tulsa County and the creation of 100 high-paying jobs demonstrates Oklahoma's leadership in technologies that are shaping the modern economy and ensuring that economic opportunity is available to communities and businesses across the Tulsa region," Lt. Gov. Matt Pinnell said.
The project was first reported in spring 2025, then tied to Beale over the summer. The Tulsa County Board of Commissioners approved the project's economic development plan and tax incentives in September, according to datacenterdynamics.com.
"We're building the physical infrastructure that makes the internet run, specifically in Tulsa County," Tony Burkhart, Beale Infrastructure's vice president of public policy and public affairs, told ktul.com. "We're providing hundreds of local jobs to skilled labor and local workforce members to make sure that there's economic opportunity for everybody."
Beal also is apparently planning a development in Coweta, southeast of Tulsa in Wagoner County. In addition, Project Atlas development is considering land along 16192 State Highway 51B, just south of Coweta and east of Highway 72.
