Kinder Morgan / Valero place parkway pipeline into service
Construction of the approximately 141-mile, 16-inch diameter Parkway Pipeline, a 50-50 joint venture between Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. and Valero Energy Corp, is complete and is now transporting refined petroleum products from refineries in Norco, La., to an existing petroleum transportation hub in Collins, Miss., owned by Plantation Pipe Line Company. (Kinder Morgan owns 51 percent of Plantation Pipe Line Company and operates the system.) From this hub the products will be transported by multiple pipeline systems, including Plantation, that serve major markets in the eastern United States. The approximately $250 million pipeline system has an initial capacity of 110,000 barrels per day (bpd) with the ability to expand to over 200,000 bpd.
“We are pleased to have completed the construction of Parkway on schedule with the help of good local working environments in both Louisiana and Mississippi,” said KMP Products Pipelines President Ron McClain. “This is an exciting project that provides greater connectivity between Gulf Coast refineries and East Coast markets with new pipeline infrastructure while also increasing local property tax revenues by almost $6 million.”
Parkway also generated approximately 1,200 temporary construction jobs at its peak which resulted in workers supporting local businesses, housing and support services.
