OREANDA-NEWS. Enterprise Products Partners reported that 60pc of its initial 300,000 b/d capacity on its planned Midland-to-Houston crude line is contracted.

The line, which is slated to go into service in the second quarter of 2017, will segregate WTS, WTI, light WTI and condensate, according to a presentation today to the Goldman Sachs Energy Conference. The 400-mile, 24-inch pipeline will carry crude from Midland to storage in Sealy, Texas, just west of Houston.
