Western Gas announces open season for Delaware Basin Express pipeline
Western Gas Partners, LP announced Tuesday that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Delaware Basin Express, LLC (DBE), is holding a non-binding open season to identify interest in a new pipeline project serving portions of Reeves, Loving and Ward Counties, Texas.
The pipeline will provide transportation service from the tailgate of the Ramsey gas processing plant, in Northern Reeves County, Texas, to the downstream intrastate pipelines located in the Waha area near Coyanosa, Texas.
Additional receipt connections may potentially be added at the tailgates of the MiVida gas processing plant and Bone Spring gas processing plant.
The initial capacity of the pipeline will be approximately 600,000 Dth/d of residue gas to the Waha Hub area, and could be increased up to 1,600,000 Dth/d with the addition of compression.
Subject to the satisfaction of regulatory requirements and other customary project considerations, DBE expects that the pipeline will be in service by the fourth quarter of 2016.
"With the continued growth in the Delaware basin there is significant demand from producers for additional takeaway capacity, especially to the Waha Hub and its premium downstream markets," said Western Gas Partners CEO Don Sinclair.
