Miles of pipe 322 171 257
Annual tax revenue 1.5 million 990,000 7.5 million
Capital investment 215 million 98 million 145 million
Construction payroll 17.6 million 10.4 million 15.3 million
7Pump Stations
- 3 pump stations used to move NGLs
- Two in Wyoming - for startup
- One in Kansas - for maximum capacity
- This project is more efficient because gravity
helps move the product (meaning fewer pump
stations required)

NGL Products are fractionated, or separated into
individual components
