Prism Midstream LLC will begin building the Bedrock liquids handling facility for NGL in Crockett County, Texas, in June, the company said June 8. Permian Basin NGL and condensate—on-spec and off-spec—will handled, the company added.
Initially, 5,500 barrels per day (bbl/d) of off-spec product will be handled at the facility, which is scheduled to be operational by the end of first-quarter 2016. The capacity for off-spec product could expand to 11Mbbl/d.
The facility will have five truck racks, and could expand to 12. It will be north of Ozona, Texas, with access to U.S. Highway 190 to received trucked-in liquids. Off-spec issues—color, corrosion, carbon dioxide and methane—will be treated. NGL that meets pipeline specifications, and condensate with Reid vapor pressure of 9 pounds per square inch less than 10 parts per million of sulfur content, will be delivered.
Prism executed agreements with Enbridge Liquids Transportation & Marketing LP (ELTM) for firm capacity at the Bedrock facility and is negotiating additional commitments. ELTM purchases on-spec and off-spec NGL and condensate in the Permian, and has trucks and trailers to transport them to Bedrock.
Doug Coleman, vice president of new ventures, said the liquids facility that handles both NGL and condensate is valuable to E&Ps and midstream companies, because production of crude oil, NGL and condensate has increased.
Prism Midstream LLC is based in Dallas.
