5. About Overland Pass Pipeline Approximate $450 million capital investment
14 and 16-inch diameter pipe (varies)
Made of high-strength steel
Buried minimum of 36” below ground
Maximum operating pressure 1,440 psig (Prior to start up pipe is tested to 1800 psig)
Pipe capacity range 90,000-150,000 barrels per day
6. Local Economic Impacts
7. Pump Stations 3 pump stations used to move NGLs
Two in Wyoming - for startup
One in Kansas - for maximum capacity
This project is more efficient because gravity helps move the product (meaning fewer pump stations required)
