Enterprise Products Partners (EPD) is expanding the company’s NGL export capacity by 300,000 bbl/d in the Houston Ship Channel to meet strong demand, the company said in a statement on July 30.
The company plans to expand its refrigeration capacity at the Enterprise Hydrocarbons Terminal for propane and butane. The expansion will also allow the company to increase its propylene export capacity. The project is expected to be in service by the end of 2026.
“Enterprise has received significant interest in ethane and LPG exports systemwide, Enterprise co-CEO and General Partner Jim Teague said in the statement. “Additional interest in expanded capacity reflects continued demand for U.S. hydrocarbons and Enterprise’s ability to quickly and economically expand our footprint to meet those needs.”
The announcement comes as EPD is expanding its NGL capacity at Neches River Terminal, near Beaumont, Texas, by 300,000 bbl/d. The first part of the two-phase expansion will begin operations by the end of 2025.
