ONEOK's Seventh Natural Gas Liquid Facility, Lonesome Creek, Watford City, Update; Will Be North Dakota's Second Largest NGL Facility

For background to this new story, start here, which was posted just a few months ago, back in December, 2014. At that time I wrote:

This is sort of like, according to our sources, ONEOK will soon announce another investment of $2 - $3 billion in the Bakken.  

Here's a start. I think this story refers to the seventh (7th) ONEOK facility announced November 19, 2013.

The Dickinson Press is reporting:

The North Dakota Public Service Commission has scheduled a June 18 public hearing for a proposed $280 million natural gas processing plant near Watford City that PSC Chairman Brian Kalk said will play an important role in efforts to reduce flaring.

The Lonesome Creek Plant proposed by ONEOK Rockies Midstream LLC would process up to 200 million cubic feet of natural gas per day, making it the state’s second largest gas processing plant behind Hess Corp.’s plant at Tioga, which was recently expanded from 115 million cubic feet per day to 250 million cubic feet per day.

The volume of natural gas flared in the state during February was 10.95 billion cubic feet, or about 391 million cubic feet per day.

ONEOK’s plant would raise the company’s total processing capacity in North Dakota to 800 million cubic feet per day, said Danette Welsh, governmental affairs manager for ONEOK.
