Magellan Midstream Partners LP and Navigator Energy Services have extended the open season to solicit transportation commitments for the Voyager pipeline to transport various grades of light crude oil and condensate from Cushing, Okla., to Houston (OGJ Online, Nov. 6, 2018).

The proposed Voyager pipeline would include construction of nearly 500 miles of 20-in. or 24-in. line from Magellan’s terminal in Cushing to its terminal east of Houston. At the origin, Voyager would provide shippers the option to begin deliveries at Cushing from Magellan-operated Saddlehorn Pipeline, serving the Rockies and Bakken production regions, Navigator’s Glass Mountain Pipeline, serving the Midcontinent basins, as well as other connections within the Cushing crude oil hub.

At the destination, Magellan’s Houston crude oil distribution system could further deliver the product to all refineries in the Houston and Texas City areas or to export facilities, such as Magellan's Seabrook Logistics joint venture terminal.

The system is expected to have an initial capacity of at least 300,000 b/d with the ability to expand. It could be operational by yearend 2020.

Binding commitments must be submitted by 12:00 p.m. CST on Mar. 29.
