Transport

ONEOK Partners LP plans to invest $300-355 million in natural gas-related projects in the Bakken Shale through 2012 to accommodate growing production, the Tulsa-based partnership said Monday.

Buckeye Partners LP has received “favorable responses” from potential customers to transport natural gas liquids (NGL) produced in the Marcellus Shale Basin in Pennsylvania to the market in Sarnia, ON, on its proposed Union Pipeline project, the partnership said last week. The open season response provides further indication that producers are pursuing wetter gas to cash in on more lucrative NGL prices.
