LATEST JOB REPORTS


NuStar Energy L.P. recently announced that it has received its first shipment of Permian crude at its Corpus Christi North Beach Terminal, and that the terminal would begin to load the first cargo of the

long-haul Permian crude onto a ship for export the weekend of August 18th this weekend. The shipment comes on the heels of NuStar's recent completion of a project connecting the part-nership's existing 16-inch pipeline in South Texas to the Plains Cactus II pipeline that transports WTI volumes from the Perm-ian Basin to South Texas.

NuStar is also currently nearing completion of connections of its South Texas Pipeline System to two other long-haul pipelines that will also move WTI volumes from the Permian to South Texas.

“We are excited to have these connections completed and we are even more excited that we will soon be the first in the Port

of Corpus Christi to export these barrels transported to South Texas via one of three large Permian long-haul pipeline proj-ects," said Brad Barron, president and chief executive officer of NuStar Energy L.P. "The second stage of our export project, a new 8-mile 30-inch pipeline to transport WTI volumes from a connection to Cactus II in Taft, Texas to our Corpus Christi ter-minal is also on-schedule to be in service this quarter.

“We continue to believe that the biggest impact from the growth in the Permian Basin on the horizon is the growth in Gulf Coast crude exports, particularly from the Port of Corpus Christi, and with our existing pipeline and terminal operations in South Tex-as and Corpus Christi we are uniquely positioned to play a ma-jor role in getting more crude to export markets," Barron added.

“We are excited to have these connections completed and we are even more excited that we will soon be the first in the Port of Corpus Christi to export these barrels transported to South Texas via one of three large Permian long-haul pipeline projects”

According to recent reports, states would have no more than one year to make a decision on whether to approve oil and gas pipelines, dams and other construction projects crossing their waterways, under a new regulation proposed by EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler Friday.

The move comes as states and tribal groups have become increasingly critical of the environmental impact of infrastruc-ture projects, particularly those transporting fossil fuels that contribute to climate change.

“Our proposal is intended to help ensure that states adhere to the statutory language and intent of Clean Water Act,” Wheeler said in a statement. “When implemented, this pro-posal will streamline the process for constructing new energy infrastructure projects.”

New York state has blocked a series of natural gas pipeline projects running to New England, drawing opposition from oil and gas companies arguing the state is pushing the bound-aries of a law designed to protect water quality. In some in-stances, pipeline decisions have dragged out years as devel-opers went back and forth with state regulators over what are known as Section 401 reviews.

Don Santa, President and Chief Executive Officer of the In-terstate Natural Gas Association of America (INGAA), issued the following statement in response to the U.S. Environmen-tal Protection Agency’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for Clean Water Act Section 401, Water Quality Certification: "INGAA supports EPA’s proposed rule for the implementation

of updated guidance pertaining to Clean Water Act Section 401 and the protection of water quality. When an infrastruc-ture project requires federal authorization, Section 401 of the Clean Water Act provides states and tribes the opportunity to certify or deny that any discharges from the project to regu-lated waters will comply with applicable federal water quality standards. While the statute recognizes the distinctive roles of the federal and state governments in the environmental review process, the balance between those roles has recently been disrupted and some states have viewed Section 401 as a means of determining which interstate pipeline projects are in the public interest and which are not.

“EPA’s draft rule is necessary to restore efficient and con-sistent implementation of Section 401 reviews. We welcome today’s action to clarify the discrete roles of federal, state and tribal authorities throughout the Section 401 review process."

The rule change would also put tighter restrictions on states’ ability to block projects, limiting opposition to specific water quality issues and requiring that in the event of a denial they specify what if any information was lacking.

In April, President Donald Trump signed executive orders directing the EPA to review the agency’s permitting processes to speed up the construction of pipelines.

“Too often, badly needed energy infrastructure is being held back by special interest groups, entrenched bureaucracies and radical activists,” Trump said during a speech outside Houston that same month.

PROPOSED PROJECTS & UPDATES existing gathering and processing systems and can be ex-panded further to support multi-well pad development by current producer customers, as well as other producers in the area. Brazos also announced it recently commis-sioned the Comanche III plant, a 200 million ft3/d cryo-genic natural gas processing plant. Comanche III, which began processing volumes in the first quarter of 2019, is the third plant in Brazos’ natural gas processing complex, located in Reeves County, Texas, and brings Brazos’ total operated processing capacity in the region to 460 million ft3/d. Brazos anticipates further expansion of its process-ing complex with Comanche IV, a new 200 million ft3/d plant, and expects construction to begin as early as 2020.

Bridger Pipeline LLC, together with its affiliates, Liberty Pipeline LLC, and Red Oak Pipeline LLC announced that they have launched a supplemental open season seeking additional crude oil transportation commitments for joint service from production areas in the Rockies and Bakken to Cushing, Oklahoma and Gulf Coast destinations includ-ing Corpus Christi, Ingleside, and Houston, Texas. Liberty Pipeline LLC is a 50/50 joint venture of Phillips 66 and Bridger Pipeline LLC. Liberty Pipeline LLC is constructing a 24-inch pipeline that will provide crude oil transportation

service from Guernsey, Wyoming to Cushing, Oklahoma. Red Oak Pipeline LLC is a 50/50 joint venture of Phillips 66 and Plains All American Pipeline.

The staff of the FERC has issued a favorable Environ-mental Assessment (EA) for the Cheyenne Connector Pipeline Project and the Cheyenne Hub Enhancement Project, proposed by Cheyenne Connector, LLC and Rockies Express Pipeline LLC. The applicants are re-questing authorization to construct approximately 71 miles of new 36-inch-diameter pipeline, five new meter and regulating stations, and one new compressor station all in Weld County, Colorado (Cheyenne Connector Pipe-line). The Cheyenne Hub Enhancement Project includes the following facilities: one new approximately 32,100 horsepower compressor station; enhancements to modify Rockies Express’ existing Cheyenne Hub interconnect fa-cilities, including installation of pipe, valves, fittings, filters, and ancillary equipment; and ancillary facilities construct-ed at Rockies Express’ existing Cheyenne Hub, consist-ing of station piping, vibration reducing equipment, com-pressor and electrical buildings, valves, and gas cooling equipment.

The staff of the FERC has prepared a Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Annova LNG Brownsville Project (referred to as the Annova LNG Project, or Proj-ect). Annova LNG Common Infrastructure, LLC; Annova LNG Brownsville A, LLC; Annova LNG Brownsville B, LLC; and Annova LNG Brownsville C, LLC (collectively Anno-va), request authorization to site, construct, and operate a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Cameron County, Texas. The project would include a new LNG ex-

port terminal capable of producing up to 6.95 million metric tons per year of LNG for export. The LNG terminal would receive natural gas to the export facilities from a third-par-ty intrastate pipeline. Annova anticipates a five-year con-struction period if the project is authorized. The facilities for the project include the following major components: gas pretreatment facilities; liquefaction facilities (six liq-uefaction trains and six approximately 72,000 horsepower [hp] electric motor-driven compressors); two LNG storage

tanks; boil-off gas handling system; flare systems; marine facilities; control, adminis-tration, and support buildings; access road; fencing and barrier wall; and utilities (pow-er, water, and communication). If approved, construction is slated for 2022 with a partial in-service date of 2024.

Bluewater Gas Storage has proposed a compressor project designed to increase operating pressure for its system. Bluewa-ter’s current interconnection with Vector Pipeline does not allow direct delivery of the required amount of customers’ natural gas needs due to the varying pressures be-tween the Bluewater and Vector systems. This has required rerouting the natural gas to other third-party pipelines for delivery, which results in additional costs. A new compressor would increase Bluewater’s operating pressure, taking full advantage of the Vector Pipeline interconnection and eliminating excess costs for rerouting the contracted amount of natural gas. Blue-water has submitted a pre-filing applica-tion with the FERC for the project and has received a Notice on Intent to Prepare an Environmental Assessment (EA). The EA is expected from the FERC December 2, 2019 with a final FERC decision slated for March 1, 2020. Pending Federal Energy Regula-tory Commission (FERC) and state review and approval, construction is expected to start in mid-2020 with completion in 2021.

Brazos Midstream has announced it has executed gathering and processing agree-ments with Shell Exploration & Produc-tion to construct a new natural gas gathering system located in the core of the Delaware Basin. Brazos’ new midstream infrastruc-ture is anchored by fifteen-year, fee-based acreage dedications totaling 55 000 acres in Loving, Ward, and Winkler counties. Bra-zos will construct 16 miles of high-pressure pipeline that will extend from the Company’s

Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. and Navigator En-ergy Services extended its open season for commitments from shippers for the planned Voyager Pipeline to August 30, 2019. The pipeline will transfer different grades of light crude oil and condensate from Cushing, OK to Houston, TX. Potential shippers continue to project considerable in-terest, especially the ones that reach Voyager from con-necting carriers in numerous producing regions. The ex-tension offers these shippers additional time to confirm their commitments across multiple pipelines and appraise a new origin point near Midland. The proposed Voyager pipeline will involve construction of almost 500 miles of 20- or 24-inch pipeline from Magellan Midstream's terminal in Cushing to its facility in East Houston. Originating from the Cushing, the pipeline will enable shippers to begin deliv-eries at Cushing from the Magellan Midstream-operated Saddlehorn Pipeline serving the Rockies and Bakken pro-duction regions, Navigator's Glass Mountain Pipeline serv-ing the Mid-Continent basin as well as other connections within the strategic Cushing crude oil hub. On request of potential shippers, the sponsors are assessing the addition of a Midland origin to provide further supply flexibility from the prolific Permian Basin. The Midland origin is likely to be accomplished in phases through Voyager's use of an exist-

ing Magellan pipeline that may become inoperative in the near future. This is part of the company's announced West Texas refined products pipeline expansion project. Voyager will have the capability to use an existing terminal in Frost to construct assets and connect to the Cushing-to-Houston segment. At the destination, the widespread Houston crude oil distribution system will deliver the multiple grades of crude oil to Houston and Texas refineries. Also, the delivery will be made to export facilities like the terminal owned by Seabrook Logistics, LLC, which is owned 50% by Magellan Midstream. Initially, the Voyager Pipeline is anticipated to have an initial capacity of at least 300,000 barrels per day, as proposed. Eventually the capacity will expand further if the industry demand increases. The pipeline is estimated to come online in late 2020.

Meritage Midstream Services II, LLC announced its sub-sidiary, Thunder Creek NGL Pipeline, LLC launched a bind-ing open season to secure volume dedications to support the proposed construction and development on its exist-ing natural gas liquids pipeline to facilitate transportation of natural gas liquids from two processing plants located in Campbell and Converse counties in Wyoming to an inter-connection point with ONEOK Hydrocarbon, L.P.’s ONEOK

ONEOK, Inc. is investing approximately $2.3 billion be-tween now and 2020 to construct: a new 400,000-barrel per day (bpd) natural gas liquids (NGL) pipeline – the Ar-buckle II Pipeline – that will create additional NGL transpor-tation capacity between ONEOK's extensive Mid-Continent infrastructure in Oklahoma and the company's existing NGL facilities in Mont Belvieu, Texas; a new 125,000 bpd NGL fractionator – MB-4 – in Mont Belvieu, Texas, and re-lated infrastructure; and a new 200-million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) natural gas processing facility – the Demicks Lake plant and related infrastructure – in the Williston Ba-sin. Arbuckle II Pipeline and MB-4: The approximately 530-mile, 24- and 30-inch diameter Arbuckle II Pipeline is ex-pected to cost approximately $1.36 billion and will have an initial capacity to transport up to 400,000 bpd of unfraction-ated NGLs originating across ONEOK's supply basins and extensive NGL gathering system to the company's storage and fractionation facilities at Mont Belvieu. The Arbuckle II Pipeline is expected to be completed in the first quarter 2020. The pipeline will have the capability to be expanded up to 1 million bpd with additional pump facilities, which could more than double ONEOK's current capacity be-tween the Mid-Continent and Gulf Coast. The new MB-4 fractionator and related infrastructure, which includes addi-tional NGL storage capacity in Mont Belvieu, are expected to cost approximately $575 million and be completed in the first quarter 2020. ONEOK's total NGL fractionation capac-ity will increase to 965,000 bpd following the completion of MB-4. The initial capacity of the Arbuckle II Pipeline is more than 50 percent contracted, and MB-4 is fully contracted. Both are anchored by long-term contracts with terms rang-ing between 10 to 20 years. Adjusted EBITDA multiples for these projects are based only from these commitments but additional supply agreements continue to be negoti-

PROPOSED PROJECTS & UPDATES ated. Demicks Lake plant and related infrastructure: The Demicks Lake natural gas processing plant and related field infrastructure are expected to cost a total of approx-imately $400 million and be completed during the fourth quarter 2019. The Demicks Lake plant will be built in McK-enzie County, North Dakota, which is in the core area of the Williston Basin. The plant is supported by acreage dedica-tions with primarily fee-based contracts. The Demicks Lake plant is expected to contribute additional NGL volumes to ONEOK's NGL gathering system and natural gas volumes to ONEOK's 50 percent-owned Northern Border Pipeline. ONEOK's Williston Basin natural gas processing capacity will increase to more than 1.2 billion cubic feet per day fol-lowing the completion of the Demicks Lake plant.

Phillips 66 and Bridger Pipeline LLC recently held a joint open season for the proposed Liberty Pipeline, which will provide shippers the opportunity to secure crude oil transpor-tation service from the Rockies and Bakken production areas to Corpus Christi, Texas. The Liberty Pipeline is expected to have an initial throughput capacity of 350,000 barrels per day (BPD) with the ability to expand further depending on shipper interest in the open season. The pipeline is anticipated to be placed in service in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Phillips 66 and Plains All American Pipeline announced that they have formed a 50/50 joint venture, Red Oak Pipe-line LLC, and are proceeding with construction of the Red Oak Pipeline system. The pipeline system will provide crude oil transportation service from Cushing, Oklahoma, and the Permian Basin in West Texas to Corpus Christi, Ingleside, Houston and Beaumont, Texas. Red Oak is un-derpinned with long-term shipper volume commitments. Initial service from Cushing to the Gulf Coast is targeted to commence as early as the first quarter of 2021, subject to receipt of applicable permits and regulatory approvals. The Red Oak joint venture will lease capacity in Plains’ Sunrise Pipeline system, which extends from Midland to Wichita Falls, Texas. The joint venture plans to construct a new 30-inch pipeline from Cushing to Wichita Falls and Sealy, Texas. From Sealy, the joint venture will construct a 30-inch pipeline segment to Corpus Christi and Ingleside and a 20-inch pipeline segment to Houston and Beaumont. Where feasible, Red Oak will utilize existing pipeline and utility corridors and advanced construction techniques to limit environmental and community impact. Plains will lead project construction on behalf of the joint venture, and Phil-lips 66 will operate the pipeline. The project is expected to cost approximately $2.5 billion.

Phillips 66’s PSX crude oil pipeline joint ventures (JVs) an-nounced supplemental open seasons for additional trans-portation capacity of the commodity. The open season is meant for additional shippers willing to carry crude volumes for a long term to destinations including Cushing, Oklahoma and Gulf Coast from Bakken and Rockies. It is to be noted that Phillips 66’s JVs are Liberty Pipeline LLC and Red Oak Pipeline LLC. With Phillips 66, the JV partner of Liberty Pipeline LLC is Bridger Pipeline LLC. In the JV, each party has a 50% interest. The JV partners for Red Oak Pipeline are Phillips 66 and Plains All American Pipeline (PAA). The 24-inch pipeline that Liberty Pipeline LLC is constructing is meant to carry crude to Cushing, OK from Guernsey, WY. The date when the pipeline is likely to initiate operations is the first quarter of 2021. Phillips 66 will be the operator of the pipeline whose cost is estimated by the company at $1.6 billion. Notably, the pipeline projects will assure pro-ducers in Bakken and Rockies that their increased produc-tion of crude oil volumes will be transported to key destina-tions in the United States and across the globe, according to Bridger Pipeline LLC.

An affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline announced a binding open season for long-term commitments for light crude oil transportation service on its Western Corridor Pipeline System. The open season service will originate in northern Montana for delivery to Gulf Coast markets. Sub-ject to sufficient commitments from shippers and receipt of any necessary permits and regulatory approvals, the exist-ing System capacity will be expanded by up to an addi-tional 70,000 barrels per day, and service on the expanded System is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2021.

Construction is expected to begin in the third quarter of 2021, with commercial operations expected to begin in third quarter of 2022. On October 16, 2017, Port Arthur Pipeline filed another application requesting a certifi-cate of public convenience and necessity for the Louisiana Connector Project, authorizing Port Arthur Pipeline to con-struct, own, and operate additional new proposed Liquefac-tion Facility south of Port Arthur in Jefferson County, Texas. The Louisiana Connector Project will be capable of deliver-ing approximately 2,000,000 MMBtu per day of natural gas to the Liquefaction Project. The Louisiana Connector Proj-ect, along with the Texas Connector Project facilities pro-posed in this proceeding, will be the primary means of deliv-ery of feed gas to the Liquefaction Project. The anticipated construction start date is 1st quarter of 2021 with in-service slated for 3rd quarter 2022. The Louisiana Connector Proj-ect will include 131 miles of 42-inch diameter gas pipeline, a new compressor station, interconnection facilities with interstate and intrastate natural gas facilities, and other appurtenant facilities. The proposed Louisiana Connec-tor Project facilities will extend from an interconnect with Columbia Gas Transmission (MP 130.9) located northeast of Eunice, Louisiana in St. Landry Parish through Evange-line, Allen, Beauregard, Calcasieu, and Cameron Parishes in Louisiana and Jefferson County, Texas and terminate at the proposed Liquefaction Facility south of Port Arthur in Jefferson County, Texas. The Louisiana Connector Project, along with the Texas Connector Project facilities proposed in this proceeding, will be the primary means of delivery of feed gas to the Liquefaction Project. Both projects are needed to provide service to the Liquefaction Project and will allow flexible access to multiple supply basins and sys-tems of upstream transporters. Combined, the projects will give more gas sellers access to Port Arthur LNG and Port Arthur LNG access to more supply basins. The proposed Port Arthur Pipeline Project would consist of two segments oriented north and south of the proposed liquefaction proj-ect. The 27.6-mile northern portion of the proposed pipe-line project would extend from Vidor in Orange County, TX to the proposed liquefaction project, with the majority of the proposed pipeline co-located with existing energy in-frastructure rights-of-way. The approximately 7-mile south-ern portion of the proposed pipeline project would originate in Cameron Parish, Louisiana on the east bank of Sabine

The estimated cost of the Project is $531.12 million. If approved, in-service is slated in time for the 2021-22 winter heating season.

Venture Global Calcasieu Pass, LLC has filed with the FERC to prepare and use access roads and additional temporary workspaces associated with construction of the Calcasieu Pass Pipeline project. The FERC has is-sued a favorable Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Calcasieu Pass LNG Project. The project would include a new liquefied natural gas (LNG) export termi-nal and 23.4 miles of 42-inch pipeline in Cameron Par-ish, Louisiana. The terminal would include the following facilities: liquefaction facilities; two full-containment LNG above ground storage tanks, each with a usable capacity of approximately 200,000 cubic meters; a 720 megawatt electric generating plant; a marine terminal consisting of a turning basin and LNG carrier berths; LNG piping; transfer lines; loading facilities; and other infrastructure. The pipe-line would include the following facilities: one meter sta-tion; three mainline valves; one pipeline inspection/clean-ing device launcher at the meter station; and one pipeline inspection/cleaning device receiver on the terminal site. The FERC concludes that construction and operation of the project would result in some adverse environmental impacts, but these impacts would be reduced to less than significant levels.

Venture Global LNG, Inc. is proposing to build, own and oper-ate a liquefied natu-ral gas facility, Delta LNG, on a 524-acre site in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana and the Delta Express Pipeline between the Delta LNG termi-nal and a natural gas pipeline grid intersec-tion near Alto, Louisi-ana. Delta LNG will be a natural gas liquefac-tion (LNG) export ter-

minal with an export capacity of 24 million metric tonnes per year of LNG when fully developed and will accom-

modate ocean-going vessels with an LNG carrying capac-ity of up to 185,000 cubic meters. Four full containment LNG storage units, three marine loading docks and onsite power generation will be included.Delta Express Pipeline will consist of approximately 280 miles of two new parallel 42-inch-diameter natural gas pipelines in a single right-of-way path that will originate near Alto to connect to the LNG facility. Four new compressor stations are proposed to be constructed in Richland Parish, Concordia Parish, Point Coupee Parish, and Lafourche Parish, LA. Venture has issued a pre-filing request with the FERC for the proj-ect. An FERC application for the project is expected to be filed in November 2019. If approved, the project has an anticipated construction start date of December 2021 with a slated in-service date of November 2024.

Venture Global Plaquemines LNG, LLC (Plaquemines LNG) and Venture Global Gator Express, LLC (Gator Express Pipeline) have received a favorable Environ-mental Impact Statement from the FERC to construct a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal and pipeline facilities located in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. To-gether the proposals are referred to as the Plaquemines LNG and Project or Project. Plaquemines LNG and Gator Express Pipeline are proposing to construct and operate a new LNG export terminal and associated facilities along the west bank of the Mississippi River in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana (Terminal) and to construct and operate two new 42-inch diameter natural gas pipeline laterals that will connect the Terminal to the pipeline facilities of Ten-nessee Gas Pipeline Company and Texas Eastern Trans-mission. The two parallel and adjacent laterals (11.7 and 15.1 miles long) would be operated at an MAOP of 1,200 pounds per square inch and will be designed to provide firm transportation capacity of approximately 1,970,000 Dt/d to the Terminal. Total cost of the pipeline portion of the project is estimated to be approximately 284 million dollars.

Williams – Northwest Pipeline LLC is one of three in-terstate natural gas pipelines operated by The Williams Companies. The Northwest system extends from the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico and southwestern Colorado through the states of Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon and Washington to a point on the Canadian border near Sumas, Washington. Northwest provides nat-ural gas transportation service to the Seattle, Washington, Portland, Oregon, and Boise, Idaho, markets. The North Seattle Lateral consists of two lines (laterals) branching off the 30-inch Northwest mainline at milepost (MP) 1,397.1. The first lateral measures 20 inches in diameter to MP 2.0, at which point the diameter measures 8 inches. The sec-ond lateral measures 16 inches in diameter. This project will replace a portion of this existing 8-inch line with new 20-inch pipe, beginning near MP 2.0 and extending up

to approximately 5.85 miles. an in-line inspection facility, currently located at MP 2.2, will be relocated to the end of the expanded portion of the line as part of the project. All pipe installed during the project will use the existing North-west right-of-way corridor. Workspace or other use of land outside Northwest easements will be relatively minimal and temporary. FERC has issued a Notice to Proceed with construction.

Williams has plans for the Regional Energy Access, an incremental expansion of the Transco interstate pipeline to provide firm natural gas transportation capacity to mar-kets in the northeastern United States as early as No-vember 2022. Regional Energy Access is being designed to provide up to one million dekatherms per day of firm transportation capacity to the Transco pipeline's northeast market, including existing Pennsylvania and New Jersey local distribution companies and power generators. De-mand for natural gas in the Northeast continues to rise as businesses rely on natural gas to help meet clean air goals. Regional Energy Access minimizes environmental impacts by maximizing the use of existing Transco pipe-line infrastructure and rights of way. The preliminary de-sign of the project consists of additional compression and selected pipeline loop segments along the existing Trans-co pipeline corridor. Although the final capacity, scope and cost of the project will be determined by the results of the open season, it is anticipated that the project will include approximately 34 miles of pipeline looping and additional compression along existing Transco facilities. The project will connect robust Marcellus supply from receipt points along the Transco pipeline’s Leidy Line in Luzerne Coun-ty, Pennsylvania, to delivery points in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, including the Station 210 Zone 6 Pool in Mer-cer County, New Jersey, the Lower Mud Run Road inter-connect in Northampton County, Pennsylvania, and along Transco’s mainline to Station 200, Marcus Hook lateral and Trenton Woodbury lateral. The proposed project will be subject to approval by the FERC and other agencies.

Williams reported that the FERC has issued a Certifi-cate of Public Convenience and Necessity authorizing the Northeast Supply Enhancement Project – an expan-sion of the existing Transco natural gas pipeline designed to serve New York markets in time for the 2020/2021 win-ter heating season. The Northeast Supply Enhancement project will provide 400,000 dekatherms per day of addi-tional natural gas supply to National Grid – the largest dis-tributor of natural gas in the northeastern United States. National Grid is converting about 8,000 customers per year from heating oil to natural gas in New York City and Long Island. The Northeast Supply Enhancement Project is critical to make these conversions possible, as well as keep up with new development in the area. The Order is-sued by the Commission concludes a nearly three-year

regulatory review process, ultimately determining that the Northeast Supply Enhancement project will serve the public interest and that environmental impacts would be minimized with the implementation of mitigation measures proposed by the company and FERC.

Sawyer Mfg. Company, a Tulsa based manufacturing and fabrication company, has been named to this year’s Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of America’s fastest-growing private companies. Sawyer has been competitive in their market earning them a place as one of only four Oklahoma manufacturing companies to be recognized on the prestigious list. Sawyer’s three-year growth margin of 105% places them as 7th among top Tulsa companies with an overall ranking of 20th in the state of Oklahoma and 3384 nationally.

The Inc. 5000 list represents a unique look at the most suc-cessful companies within the American economy’s most dy-namic segment – it’s independent small businesses. Com-panies such as Microsoft, Dell, Oracle, Intuit, Zillow, Yelp, Pandora, LinkedIn, Timberland, Domino’s Pizza, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

Inclusion on this elite list is acknowledgement of Sawyer’s commitment to growth and expansion of the company. “We are honored to be recognized as one of the fastest growing manufacturers in Oklahoma and to rank among some of the most recognizable companies in the world,” said President, Dave Hembree. “Our growth is a testament to the products we build, the expertise and dedication of our employees, and a forward-thinking leadership team.”

About Sawyer Mfg. CompanySawyer Mfg. Company is a competitive global provider of pipeline and welding equipment with headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Since 1948, it has been designing, engineer-ing and manufacturing pipeline and welding equipment that sets the industry standard for quality and durability. Sawyer

Fabrication, a division of Sawyer Mfg. Company formed in 2016, is a full service ASME code welding facility focusing on heavy structure, vessels, tanks, piping, and other cus-tom fabricated equipment. Sawyer products are used world-wide in the construction and maintenance of pipeline, waste water and sewer lines, marine and offshore applications, gathering and distribution systems and other welding and pipeline applications.

About Inc. 5000The Inc. 5000 is a list of the fastest-growing private compa-nies in the nation. Started in 1982, this prestigious list has become the hallmark of entrepreneurial success. The 2019 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2015 and 2018. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2015. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other com-panies—as of December 31, 2018. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2015 is $100,000; the minimum for 2018 is $2 million.

EPIC Midstream Holdings Inc has begun shipping crude oil on its 400,000 barrel per day (bpd) pipeline from the Permian Basin to the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Terminal operator Moda Midstream LLC confirmed it would be accepting the Permian crude from the EPIC line at its facility in Ingleside, Texas. Oil prices in Midland, the heart of the Permian shale field, rallied to 50 cents per barrel over U.S. crude futures.

San Antonio-based EPIC is the second pipeline operator this year to open a major line from the top U.S. oil field to the Corpus Christi, Texas, area. It followed the start of initial operations on Plains All American Pipeline LP’s 670,000 bpd Cactus II Pipeline.
