The expansion is scheduled to be completed by the end of the first quarter 2020 and is expected to cost $305 million.
ONEOK also announced plans to expand its 2,600-mile West Texas LPG pipeline which carries NGL from the Permian Basin to Houston. The expansion will add an additional 100,000 bpd capacity to the pipeline. All volumes are fully contracted.
The $310 million West Texas LPG expansion is expected to be completed in Q2.
