A company that’s building a gas plant to service XTO crude oil production is asking the state for an expedited process for two proposed pipelines that will provide takeaway for the Bill Sanderson Gas Plant in Williams County.
Denver-based OE2 North is proposing to lay two pipelines for the plant that is being built 15 miles west of Williston. One, an 8-inch steel pipeline 1.28 miles in length will carry up to 80,000 barrels per day of NGLs. The other, 4.67-mile, 20-inch steel pipeline will carry up to 250 million cubic feet per day of residue gas. The cost of the two pipelines is an estimated $6 million.
OE2 in its application materials said it will construct both pipelines on privately owned land, for which the company has already acquired rights of way.
The lines will also be co-located for approximately the first mile, at which point the 8-inch NGL line will tie into an existing, third-party pipeline. The second line, a 20-inch residue gas pipeline, will continue another 3.39 miles along existing infrastructure before tying into an existing third-party pipeline.
Above-ground facilities will include a 100- by 100-foot interconnect site at the end of the 8-inch NGL line and a 250- by 250-foot interconnect at the end of the 20-inch residue line, as well as pipeline markers and cathodic test stations along the way.
The lines will not require any compressor stations. Pressure from the associated Bill Sanderson Gas Plant will be adequate for the projected flow rates.
The pipes will be pre-coated with a fusion-bonded epoxy external coating for corrosion protection, and all welds will be nondestructively tested to ensure their structural integrity and compliance with applicable USDOT regulations. Each weld will be externally coated for corrosion resistance.
OE2 hoped to begin construction of the pipelines by July 2020, or after all necessary permits and approvals are in hand. Construction will take about 12 weeks, including backfilling and finish grading.
Much more at the link.

This is a different pipeline discussion than the one at this link.

Back to the Bill Sanderson Gas Processing Plant.
North Dakota natural gas processing plants are tracked here. It appears the Bill Sanderson plant will be the third largest in the Bakken. Hess still has the largest at "425" and Oasis has one at "320."

The Virus That Came Out At Night

Among all the other peculiarities of the corona virus, it appears we have discovered another one. The corona virus apparently is most active at night.

Is it possible the virus is carried by mosquitoes?

The following notice was sent out to all residents by our apartment complex manager this past week. Yes, we have "trash valet / front-door pick-up" service. What a great country.



Government-mandated curfews due to Corona virus -- great excuse to shut down protestors. LOL.
