Whistler natural gas pipeline extends Midland lateral

Whistler Pipeline LLC is expanding Whistler natural gas pipeline’s Midland basin footprint with a new 36-in. OD lateral extending northwest into Martin County, Tex. The Martin County lateral will lengthen the existing 50-mile Midland lateral by 35 miles and connect to multiple processing sites in the county. The lateral is scheduled to be in service fourth-quarter 2022.

Whistler’s 42-in. OD trunkline runs 450 miles from the Waha header to the Agua Dulce hub in South Texas, transporting as much as 2 bcfd.

The pipeline is owned by a consortium of MPLX LP, WhiteWater Midstream, and a joint venture between Stonepeak Infrastructure Partners and West Texas Gas Inc. It began full commercial service July 1, 2021.
