Eagle Ford Shale

Several new construction projects are being developed that are expected to extend the Enterprise's natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGL) infrastructure as well as crude oil in the Eagle Ford Shale play, located in South Texas. Enterprise's system has access to more than 700,000 acres of Eagle Ford properties and expects more than 1.25 billion cubic feet per day of residue take-away capacity by June 2012. Multiple volume commitment agreements have been initiated that will provide total midstream services, including natural gas processing, NGL fractionation and transportation in the area.

Project Highlights

• More than 300 miles of 30” / 36” natural gas pipelines
• 600 MMcf/d cryogenic gas processing facility
• 127 mile NGL pipeline connecting to Mont Belvieu
• 75 MBD NGL fractionator at Mont Belvieu
• 140-mile 24” pipeline from Karnes County to Sealy, TX; 350 MBPD capacity
• Crude oil terminal in Houston to receive and distribute Eagle Ford crude
• System able to deliver to Cushing and Houston markets
• Considering plans for a Phase II extension of Eagle Ford crude line further southwest into shale trend
