Google Reveals Tulsa County Data Center Plans

Google Reveals It Is Behind Massive Tulsa County Data Center

Google has officially confirmed it is the technology company behind the massive Tulsa County data center under construction just west of Owasso, ending months of speculation surrounding the development previously known as Project Clydesdale.

The 506-acre Google data center campus is being developed with Beale Infrastructure near Cherokee Industrial Park in unincorporated Tulsa County. The project represents another major expansion for Google in Oklahoma, where the company says it has invested more than $15 billion since 2011.

Tulsa County data center planned as four-building campus

Plans call for the Tulsa County data center campus to eventually include as many as four data center buildings, each measuring approximately 200,000 square feet.

The project will be developed in phases. The first two buildings are expected to be completed within about two and a half years, while development of the full campus could take between five and seven years.

Google has already established a major presence in Oklahoma through its Pryor data center, which opened in 2011. The technology company is also expanding its Oklahoma infrastructure with new facilities under construction in Stillwater and Muskogee County.

The Tulsa County development was previously known publicly only as Project Clydesdale, with Beale Infrastructure announcing the project without identifying the technology company that would operate the campus.

Google's confirmation now connects the Tulsa County project to the company's broader expansion of data center infrastructure in Oklahoma.

Google project includes power and water infrastructure upgrades

The development will require major investments in both the regional electric grid and local water infrastructure.

The campus will receive power from Public Service Company of Oklahoma, or PSO. Beale Infrastructure will fund construction of a new on-site electrical substation designed to serve the facility while also improving transmission and distribution reliability in the region.

Google says it has signed more than 15 agreements supporting over 2.5 gigawatts of new power generation and storage projects in Oklahoma since 2011.

Water infrastructure improvements are also included in the Tulsa County project. Google and Beale plan to install approximately 1.5 miles of new water lines and make additional upgrades for Washington County Rural Water District No. 3.

According to Beale Infrastructure, the improvements are intended to strengthen the local water system while providing the capacity needed for the new campus.

The development also includes workforce investment. Google is working with the electrical training ALLIANCE to train existing electrical workers and add more than 160 apprentices in Oklahoma by 2030.

Beale has separately committed $250,000 to support regional apprenticeship training in the Tulsa area.

Google continues major expansion across Oklahoma

Google says the Tulsa County project represents a long-term investment not only in its own digital infrastructure but also in northeastern Oklahoma's economy, workforce and utility systems.

The company reports its investments and technologies helped generate more than $2.6 billion in economic activity for Oklahoma businesses, nonprofits, publishers, creators and developers in 2025.

Google has also contributed more than $2 million to Tulsa-area organizations, including the Tulsa Regional STEM Alliance, Foundation for Tulsa Schools, Tulsa Innovation Labs, Atlas School and other education and workforce programs.

The project is expected to create high-paying technical jobs, opportunities for Oklahoma contractors and thousands of construction jobs as the campus is built over the next several years.

When Project Clydesdale was originally announced, Beale described the development as a planned $1 billion investment in Tulsa County.

Google says the completed campus will become part of the global data center network supporting services ranging from Google Search and online banking to hospitals and emergency systems.

The confirmation means one of the world's largest technology companies is making another significant long-term investment in Oklahoma — this time on more than 500 acres just west of Owasso.
