White Cliffs Pipeline LLC, owned by subsidiaries of Rose Rock Midstream LP, Plains All American Pipeline LP, Western Gas Partners LP and Noble Energy Inc., announced plans to expand capacity on its existing system to facilitate increasing shipments of crude oil from the DJ Basin to the Cushing hub.
The project will increase the pipeline’s capacity by boosting horsepower, modifying pumps and adding stations. Once fully operational, the capacity of the White Cliffs Pipeline will increase from 150,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) to a maximum of approximately 215,000 bbl/d.
“Production out of the DJ is growing and continues to have one of the highest rates of return in the country. We do not see companies slowing down, or spending less,” said Carlin Conner, CEO of Rose Rock Midstream’s general partner. “This expansion will help White Cliffs continue to meet the growing demand for midstream services out of the DJ by offering long-haul transportation to all active producers in this booming basin.”
The project is expected to be complete by the end of third-quarter 2015.
