Permian Highway Pipeline LLC (PHP) launched a binding open season for shipper commitments for an expansion project that could increase PHP’s capacity by nearly 650 MMcfd.

While the project is subject to a final investment decision, a foundation shipper has already executed long-term binding transportation agreements for half of the expansion capacity. Pending additional customer commitments, the target in-service date is Oct. 1, 2023.

The project will involve primarily compression expansions on PHP to increase natural gas deliveries from the Waha, Tex. area to Katy, Tex., and various US Gulf Coast markets.

The binding open season began Apr. 25 and ends May 13.

PHP is jointly owned by subsidiaries of Kinder Morgan Inc., Kinetik Holdings Inc., and ExxonMobil. Kinder Morgan Texas Pipeline is operator.
