Permian Highway Pipeline (PHP), an entity jointly owned by subsidiaries of Kinder Morgan, Kinetik Holdings and ExxonMobil, has decided to proceed with its expansion project after securing binding firm transportation agreements for all available capacity.
The project will increase PHP’s capacity by 550 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d). The project will involve primarily additional compression on PHP to increase natural gas deliveries from the Waha area to multiple mainline connections, Katy, Texas, and various U.S. Gulf Coast markets.
Following the timely receipt of required approvals, the target in-service date for the project is expected to be Nov. 1, 2023.
“We are excited to have achieved FID on this very important expansion,” said Sital Mody, natural gas midstream president at Kinder Morgan. “The project will alleviate transportation constraints out of the Permian Basin so as to further support meeting our domestic and global energy needs.”
