  • 1 Magellan Crude Oil Pipeline Project* Permian and Eagle Ford
    Magellan Crude Oil Pipeline Project* Permian and Eagle Ford Basins to Corpus Christi and Houston, Texas Background Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (together with its affiliates, “Magellan”), either through an existing affiliate or a newly formed entity, which new entity may include one or more unaffiliated members (in either case, “Carrier”) intends to develop a new pipeline system to transport crude oil and condensate from the Permian and Eagle Ford Basins to destinations in the Corpus Christi and Houston, Texas area, with an initial planned design capacity of at least 350,000 barrels per day (“bpd”) with the ability to expand up to 600,000 bpd to each destination (the “Pipeline System”). Carrier may elect to adjust the initial design capacity of the Pipeline System based on shipper demand in the open season. Carrier is seeking long-term revenue or revenue/acreage dedication commitments for the Pipeline System (in the form of Transportation Services Agreements or “TSAs”) through a binding open season (the “Open Season”), in exchange for which committed shippers would secure contract capacity rights at incentive tariff rates. Subject to obtaining sufficient commitments from shippers and the receipt of all necessary permits and approvals, the Pipeline System could be operational within 24 months of Carrier’s determination to proceed with the project. Pipeline System *1/31/2018 Version 1 Pipeline System Carrier would develop a new Pipeline System for transporting crude oil and condensate from the Permian and Eagle Ford Basins to the Corpus Christi and Houston Gulf Coast areas. Specifically, the Pipeline System would include the following assets, which could be newly constructed, existing or leased assets, or a combination of such, in each case, as supported by sufficient shipper interest: 1.

  • 1 Refinery Events June 8, 2012
    Refinery Events June 8, 2012– June 14, 2012 The following events were obtained from the Department of Energy (DOE) website: Update: Motiva Continues to Address Corrosion Issue in Fuel Gas System at Its 600,000 b/d Port Arthur, Texas Refinery Motiva Enterprises on Friday provided an update on its progress addressing previously announced corrosion issues on some piping in the plant’s fuel gas system in a filing with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. To remedy the corrosion issue and perform necessary repairs, operators were planning to temporarily place into service three compressors at the West Side Gas Plant (WSGP). The use of the WSGP compressors will help maintain fuel gas system reliability and reduce the potential for a fuel gas flaring event during the maintenance work, the filing said. Motiva submitted a similar notification for the compressors on April 23, 2012, and the follow-up filing today was submitted because the maintenance work identified in the prior notice has not been completed. http://www11.tceq.state.tx.us/oce/eer/index.cfm?fuseaction=main.getDetails&target=169426 Posted to DOE website 6-8-12. Citgo Reduces Rates Due to SRU Upset at Its 163,000 b/d Corpus Christi, Texas Refinery June 7 Citgo reported a sulfur recovery unit (SRU) upset at its West Plant Thursday morning, according to a filing with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. Operators reduced West Plant unit rates to reduce the production of sour gas as they worked to stabilize the amine system and SRU unit. http://www11.tceq.state.tx.us/oce/eer/index.cfm?fuseaction=main.getDetails&target=169414 Posted to DOE website 6-8-12.
