Enbridge Energy Partners LP, Houston, (NYSE: EEP) will construct a 150 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) cryogenic natural gas processing plant on its Anadarko gas gathering system near Wheeler, Texas. The $230 million Ajax plant -- strategically located to serve the rapidly growing Granite Wash play -- will add much-needed natural gas processing capacity to its Anadarko system and is expected to be in-service by early 2013.
"The Ajax natural gas processing plant is the latest in a series of major investments to serve producers in the Granite Wash," says Mark Maki, president of the partnership's management company. "In the last year, we have invested or committed more than $1 billion in this region to serve the needs of our customers, and we continue to explore opportunities for other organic growth and expansion investments in the Granite Wash. This new plant will bring our total Anadarko System processing capacity to 1.2 billion cubic feet per day."
The Enbridge Partners Anadarko system consists of approximately 2,800 miles of natural gas gathering and transportation pipelines in southwest Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle, on natural gas treating plant, and 12 natural gas processing plants, including the planned Ajax and previously announced Allison plants.
