RBN Energy:
re-contracting issues for older Permian crude pipelines.
Old age and treachery will always beat youth and exuberance. So the
saying goes, and it often holds true for midstream projects as well as
people. Many times we’ve written that existing pipe in the ground beats
new pipeline projects; it’s frequently easier and faster to expand the
capacity of an older pipe than it is to build an entirely new pipeline.
But eventually, contracts on these old pipelines expire, and as they do,
shippers may have new, more attractive options — maybe proposed new
pipes offer better connections to gathering systems, the ability to
segregate batches of crude oil, and/or access to more desirable markets.
Most importantly, they probably are willing to charge a lower tariff.
In the Permian, we’ve seen a slew of new pipelines advance to
construction by promising lower and lower shipping costs to move crude
from West Texas to the Gulf Coast. Today, we look at how older
pipelines’ re-contracting efforts will be affected by their competitors’
lower tariffs and operational advantages.
