Regency Energy to construct new processing facility, NGL pipeline

Regency Energy Partners announced it will construct a new processing plant and NGL pipeline at Regency’s Dubberly facility in North Louisiana. The project will include the addition of a new 200 MMcf/d cryogenic processing plant at the existing Dubberly facility, which will accept gas directly from Regency’s recently completed Dubberly gathering trunkline. The residue outlet for this facility will be the Regency Intrastate Gas System. In addition, Regency will construct a new, 160-mile, 8 and 10 inch NGL pipeline from Dubberly for delivery to fractionation facilities. The pipeline will have an initial capacity of 25,000 Bbls/d, and will be expandable via additional pump stations. Combined project costs are expected to be approximately $260M and both the new processing facility and the NGL pipeline are backed by fee-based contracts. The projects are expected to be completed in mid-2015.
