MarkWest Energy Partners Expands Operations In Granite Wash
MarkWest Energy Partners, L.P. completed its 200 MMcf/d Buffalo Creek cryogenic gas processing plant and associated high-pressure trunk line in the Granite Wash.
The Buffalo Creek facility is supported by long-term fee-based agreements with Chesapeake Energy Corp. As part of the gas processing agreement, Chesapeake dedicated 130,000 acres throughout the Anadarko Basin.
The completion of the Buffalo Creek plant increases the Partnership’s total processing capacity in the Anadarko Basin to 435 MMcf/d at two major complexes. The 200 MMcf/d Buffalo Creek facility and the 235 MMcf/d Arapahoe processing complex in western Oklahoma are connected through the Partnership’s extensive rich-gas gathering system, which provides 575 MMcf/d of gathering throughput capacity.
