ONEOK Partners Announces US$36 million expansion
ONEOK Partners, L.P. has announced plans to install seven additional pump stations for approximately US$36 million along its existing Sterling I natural gas liquids (NGL) distribution pipeline, increasing its capacity by 15 000 bpd, which will be supplied by the partnership's Mid-Continent NGL infrastructure.
The Sterling I pipeline transports NGL purity products from the partnership's fractionator in Medford, Oklahoma, to the Mont Belvieu, Texas, market centre, and is currently operating at full capacity.
The pump station installation will begin later this year and is expected to be completed in the second half of 2011.
In addition to the Sterling I project, the partnership continues to evaluate additional expansion of its Mid-Continent to Gulf Coast NGL distribution pipeline capacity, based on demand for its services.
ONEOK Partners owns a natural gas liquids system in the Mid-Continent and the Gulf Coast, which includes fractionators and storage in Mont Belvieu, Texas; Bushton, Conway and Hutchinson, Kan.; and Medford, Oklahoma. It also owns interstate natural gas liquids distribution pipelines between Conway and Mont Belvieu, and NGL and refined petroleum products distribution pipelines that connect its Mid-Continent NGL infrastructure to Midwest markets, including Chicago.
