Project Profile
Location: Eunice fractionator in South Louisiana to Mt. Belvieu supply pipelines in East Texas, USA
Capacity: 120,000 barrels per day (final)
Length: 440 miles
Start-up Year: Second half of 2014
The 440 mile Cajun Sibon NGL pipeline is connected to its Eunice NGL fractionation facilities in south-central Louisiana. The project has two phases. Phase I includes: A 130-mile, 12 inch-diameter pipeline that will extend the Partnership’s existing 440 mile Cajun-Sibon NGL pipeline system, connecting its Eunice NGL fractionation facility in south central Louisiana to Mont Belvieu supply pipelines in East Texas. The pipeline will have an initial capacity of 70,000 barrels per day of raw-make NGL.
Phase II will include the following: the expansion of the Partnership’s Cajun-Sibon pipeline capacity by an additional 50,000 barrels per day of raw-make NGL for a total project capacity of 120,000 barrels per day, as well as the installation of a 100,000 barrel-per-day fractionator adjacent to the Partnership’s Plaquemine natural gas processing plant; the modification of the Riverside fractionator facility. In addition, the construction of a 32 mile extension of LIG’s Bayou Jack Lateral that will provide gas services to customers in the Mississippi River corridor, the installation of four pump stations totaling 13,400 horsepower and the construction of 57 miles of NGL pipelines that will originate at the Partnership’s Eunice fractionator and connect to the new Plaquemine fractionator. Phase II is expected to be completed in the second half of 2014.
Crosstex Energy companies, Crosstex Energy, L.P. (the Partnership) and Crosstex Energy, Inc. (the Corporation), have completed construction of Phase I of the Cajun-Sibon natural gas liquids (NGL) expansion project. The project connects the Partnership\'s Eunice fractionator in South Louisiana to Mt. Belvieu supply pipelines in East Texas. Pipeline operations were completed in the first week of October and commercial deliveries of NGL product to the Eunice, Riverside and Plaquemine fractionators began shortly thereafter. The Eunice fractionator began operations on November 6 at a rate of 15,000 barrels of NGL per day. The pipeline is currently delivering approximately 25,000 to 30,000 barrels per day of product into various Louisiana delivery points and is expected to be moving its full volume of approximately 70,000 barrels per day by the end of 2013.
