East Texas
Springfield Pipeline's Tyler County Gathering System
Overview
Springfield Pipeline LLC (“Springfield”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Anadarko, owns and operates a gathering system in Tyler, Polk and Jasper counties of Texas and is classified as a utility by the state of Texas. Springfield gathers natural gas to a cryogenic natural gas plant, operated by Marlin Midstream (“Marlin”) in Tyler County where it is treated for CO2, dehydrated and then processed to recover natural gas liquids. Springfield has expanded its 165-mile gathering system into four counties.
Springfield has gathering, treating and dehydration facilities in excess of 150 MMcf/d, with potential for expansion. Marlin has cryogenic processing facilities for about 80 MMcf/d and JT facilities for an additional 25 MMcf/d. Springfield also has the capability to bypass and blend incremental natural gas if the current facilities become loaded, which allows them to keep gas flowing at field production rates of approximately 200 MMcf/d.
