Tulsa, Okla.-based Alpha Crude Connector LLC announced a successful open season for the Alpha Crude Connector Pipeline, a crude oil pipeline with planned locations in Lea and Eddy counties, N.M., and Culberson, Loving, Reeves and Winkler counties, Texas. Alpha received sufficient binding commitments to proceed with the pipeline.
The pipeline will have a capacity of more than 100,000 barrels per day of crude oil, with numerous lease tank batteries and other field receipt points and a truck terminal in the Delaware Basin. Through the pipeline, shippers will have the option to deliver crude to multiple downstream pipelines and a rail terminal, with access to local refineries, Cushing, Okla., and the Gulf Coast. The pipeline is expected to enter service in the second half of 2015.
Alpha plans to hold a second open season to obtain additional binding long-term acreage or volume commitments for the system. The second open season was scheduled to begin on July 2 and end on Nov. 4.
