Permian Highway Pipeline Announces Binding Open Season for Expansion Project
Increasing natural gas takeaway from the Permian Basin to the Gulf Coast
HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Permian Highway Pipeline, LLC (PHP) today announced a binding open season to solicit commitments for an expansion project on its system. Upon achieving a final investment decision (FID), the project will increase PHP’s capacity by nearly 650 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d). A foundation shipper has already executed long-term binding transportation agreements for half of this expansion capacity.

Pending additional customer commitments, the target in-service date for the project is October 1, 2023.
The binding open season begins April 25, 2022, and ends May 13, 2022, at 5 p.m. Central Time, though PHP reserves the right to extend the open season as needed.
