Dixie Pipeline Co. LLC on July 24 announced that it plans to expand the westbound transportation capacity of its pipeline system to Mont Belvieu, Texas. The project, which would involve the addition of pumping horsepower and related infrastructure, will increase capacity from 58,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) to 90,000 bbl/d. The expansion is scheduled to come on-line in March 2019.
Dixie is undertaking this expansion in response to increased shipper demand for westbound transportation services to the Mont Belvieu market. The incremental capacity will be made available to all shippers under Dixie’s currently applicable tariffs.
Dixie Pipeline Company LLC, an affiliate of Enterprise Products Partners L.P., owns and operates a pipeline system spanning approximately 1,300 miles that extends from Mt. Belvieu, Texas to Apex, North Carolina. The pipeline, which also serves third-party terminals, storage facilities and delivery locations, is capable of transporting multiple products, but is primarily dedicated to propane transportation. The system also includes eight terminal locations with approximately 660,000 barrels of storage capacity.
