WhiteWater Midstream LLC’s 1.7-bcfd Agua Dulce-Corpus Christi (ADCC) pipeline has entered commercial service, delivering natural gas to Cheniere Energy Inc.’s 15-million tonne/year Corpus Christi Liquefaction plant from markets on the 2.5-bcfd Whistler pipeline's Agua Dulce header in South Texas.
The 40-mile, 42-in. OD ADCC pipeline is a joint venture owned 70% by Whistler Pipeline LLC—a joint venture between WhiteWater (50.6%), MPLX LP (30.4%), and Enbridge Inc. (19.0%)—and 30% by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cheniere.
Whistler (450-mile, 42-in.) transports natural gas from Waha header in the Permian basin to Agua Dulce, Tex., providing direct access to South Texas and export markets. A 50-mile, 36-in. lateral provides connectivity to Midland basin.
The Whistler Pipeline LLC jv was formed earlier this year to expand the companies’ natural gas value chain in the Permian and South Texas (OGJ Online, Mar. 26, 2024).
