Targa Signs Letter to Build Whistler Pipeline Project

Targa Resources said it signed a letter of intent several partners to build the Whistler Pipeline Project, which will provide an outlet for increased natural gas production from the Permian Basin to markets along the Texas Gulf Coast.

The Whistler Project is designed to transport 2 Bcf/d of natural gas through 450 miles of 42-inch pipeline from Waha, Texas, to NextEra’s Agua Dulce market hub, with an additional 170 miles of 30-inch pipe continuing from Agua Dulce and terminating in Wharton County.

According to RBN Energy, "Supply for the Whistler will come from multiple upstream connections in both the Midland and Delaware Basins, including direct connections to Targa plants through about 27 miles of 30-inch pipeline lateral, as well as a direct connection to the 1.4 Bcf/d Agua Blanca Pipeline, a joint venture between WhiteWater, WPX Energy, MPLX and Targa."

Targa said the Whistler Project is in negotiations for additional firm transportation commitments and is expected to launch an open season in the coming months.
