Both Pipelines Deliver Natural Gas to the
Texas-Mexico Border as Part of Long-Term Agreements with Mexico’s
Federal Electricity Commission
Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (NYSE: ETP) announced today that
two natural gas pipelines in West Texas, the Trans-Pecos Pipeline
and the Comanche Trail Pipeline, and the Trans-Pecos Pipeline WAHA
Header (WAHA Header) are in service. Both pipelines and the WAHA
Header are owned by affiliates of ETP, Carso Energy Corp. and
MasTec, Inc. as part of long-term agreements with the Comisión
Federal de Electricidad, Mexico’s federal electricity commission,
to transport natural gas from the Waha Hub in Pecos County, Texas
to the Texas-Mexico border.
The Comanche Trail Pipeline and the WAHA Header went into
service as scheduled on January 30, 2017. The 42-inch intrastate
pipeline traverses 195 miles through Pecos, Reeves, Culberson,
Hudspeth, and El Paso counties to the Texas-Mexico border in San
Elizario, Texas, just south of El Paso, Texas. The Comanche Trail
Pipeline is designed to transport 1.1 billion cubic feet per day of
natural gas and presently includes seven delivery taps along its
route for local economic development opportunities. The WAHA
Header, located near the Waha Hub, is designed to accommodate 6
billion cubic feet per day of natural gas and connects to more than
10 different natural gas pipelines.
The Trans-Pecos Pipeline went into service as scheduled on March
31, 2017. The 148-mile, 42-inch intrastate pipeline traverses
Pecos, Brewster and Presidio counties and terminates at the Texas
border near Presidio, Texas. The Trans-Pecos Pipeline is designed
to transport 1.4 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas and
presently includes six local delivery taps along its route.
Additionally, the Trans-Pecos Pipeline entered into a
cooperative effort to help West Texas Gas and the City of Presidio
offset construction costs of a new pipeline that will connect to
the Trans-Pecos Pipeline and deliver natural gas to the newly
established Presidio Industrial Park. The new lateral pipeline is
expected to be in service by June 2017.
