Natural gas pipeline
Firstly, Permian Highway Pipeline, (PHP), focused on natural gas delivering, announced a final investment decision to proceed with its expansion project after securing binding firm transportation agreements for all available capacity.
We are excited to have achieved FID on this very important expansion. The project will alleviate transportation constraints out of the Permian Basin so as to further support meeting our domestic and global energy needs.

Secondly, the project will increase PHP’s capacity by approximately 550 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d).
Moreover, the project involves additional compression to increase natural gas deliveries; from the Waha area to multiple mainline connections; Katy, Texas; and various U.S. Gulf Coast markets.
Natural gas delivery benefits
However, pending the timely receipt of required approvals, the target in-service date for the project is November 1, 2023.
This expansion couldn’t come at a more critical time, as it will foster future natural gas production growth in West Texas and provide several liquefaction facilities along the Texas Gulf Coast with more affordable, reliable supply. In addition, approximately 30 of Kinetik’s customers will gain access to premium priced markets and transportation flow assurance, which is critical to minimizing flared volumes.
Jamie Welch, President and CEO of Kinetik.
Finally, Permian Highway Pipeline is owned by subsidiaries of Kinder Morgan, Inc., Kinetik Holdings Inc.and ExxonMobil; with an ownership interest of 26.7%, 53.3% and 20%, respectively.
