Velocity Central Oklahoma Pipeline LLC obtained long-term commitments supporting construction of a second oil pipeline through the Scoop Fairway, providing connections to Cushing, Okla., and the Wynnewood refinery owned by CVR Refining LP, according to parent Velocity Midstream Partners LLC Jan. 31.
Velocity secured commitments for the new 41-mile pipeline and four terminal expansions that will allow producers to deliver 100,000 barrels per day (Mbbl/d) of truck-injected or pipeline-gathered oil to markets. This new pipeline will directly connect to Velocity's 26-mile Wynnewood Pipeline project, set to be in service this April, at 45 Mbbl/d of oil and maximum capacity of 120 Mbbl/d. The new pipeline runs parallel to Velocity's existing, fully contracted Scoop system with current capacity of 100 Mbbl/d.
