Enterprise Product Announces Eighth NGL Fractionator On Texas Gulf Now Operational

Enterprise Products' eighth NGL fractionator at Mont Belvieu Complex begins operations: Co announced that the eighth natural gas liquids fractionator at the partnership's Mont Belvieu, Texas complex is now operational.
The new unit, which has the capability to fractionate up to 85,000 barrels per day of NGL, increases total NGL fractionation capacity at Enterprise's Mont Belvieu facility to ~ 655,000 BPD.
The partnership's eighth fractionator will accommodate increasing NGL production from domestic shale plays, including the Eagle Ford in South Texas, and other basins in the Rocky Mountain and Mid-continent regions.
Rising NGL production from the shale plays continues to provide a low-cost feedstock advantage for the global petrochemical industry, which currently favors natural gas-derived feedstocks over more expensive crude oil-based derivatives.
