Read MoreHide Full Article
Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (EPD - Free Report) intends to expand capacity at its Enterprise Crude Pipeline LLC (“ECPL”) West Texas System and has announced a binding open season.
Crude oil from points in New Mexico is transferred by ECPL to the partnership’s terminal in Midland, TX. The expansion of the pipeline system will provide the required augmentation to the takeaway capacity. The pipeline is intended to facilitate transportation of high crude oil production from the Delaware Basin in New Mexico.
The open season seeks customer commitments for capacity expansion on the West Texas System from ECPL’s Lynch, Hobbs and Red Hills stations in Lea County, New Mexico to the Midland terminal. At Midland, shippers will have access to storage and terminal services besides being connected to multiple transportation substitutes like trucking and pipeline infrastructure.
These additional alternatives provide access to diverse downstream markets including the Gulf Coast. The expanded West Texas System is expected to commence operations in the third quarter of 2018.
