Tulsa-based Magellan Midstream Partners said last week it completed expansion of its refined products (gasoline and diesel fuel) pipeline (additional 30,000 barrels per day) to El Paso from Houston. New pipe (16 inches) between Odessa and Crane (30 miles) will increase capacity of the pipeline to about 100,000 b/d. Magellan said Aug. 3, “An early 2024 startup is still expected to achieve full expanded capacity on this pipeline segment.”
Also under construction is new operational storage to facilitate incremental shipments.
