Magellan Midstream to Expand Refined Products Pipeline System to El Paso
Expansion will increase capacity by 30,000 bpd
Share
Following a successful open season, announced plans to expand its refined petroleum products pipeline system from the Houston area to El Paso, TX. Magellan is currently capable of transporting approximately 70,000 barrels per day (bpd) of refined petroleum products, such as gasoline and diesel fuel, from Gulf Coast and Mid-Continent refineries to El Paso, with further shipper optionality to access markets in New Mexico through our pipeline system, as well as Arizona and Mexico via connections to third-party pipelines.
Based on significant customer interest, Magellan is expanding its operating capabilities to El Paso to a new capacity of approximately 100,000 bpd. The expanded capacity will be accomplished by the construction of a new 16-inch, 30-mile pipeline along our existing route between Odessa and Crane, TX and additional operational storage to facilitate incremental shipments.
Magellan currently expects to spend approximately $125 million on this project, with the expanded capacity available early 2024, subject to receipt of all necessary permits and approvals.
