Enterprise Seeks Shipper Interest In Ethane Pipeline
Enterprise Products Partners recently held a binding open commitment period that ended Nov. 10 for capacity on a proposed pipeline designed to transport ethane from the Marcellus and Utica shale regions in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio to the Gulf Coast. The partnership has already met with interested shippers willing to execute long-term contracts to support the project, and expects sufficient market support during the open commitment period The 1,230-mile pipeline would have initial capacity of 125,000 bpd and can be quickly expanded to meet increased shipper demand. The line would deliver ethane to Enterprise’s natural gas liquids storage complex at Mont Belvieu
