American Midstream starts crude deliveries into Dakota Access Pipeline
American Midstream Partners, LP (AMID) announced today that it began deliveries from its 40,000 barrel per day Bakken crude oil gathering system near Watford City, North Dakota into the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL).
“We are excited to have initial deliveries into DAPL, an integral connection to realize higher market returns for our customers,” Lynn L. Bourdon, president and CEO of American Midstream, said. “The connection is a continuation of our strategy to optimize the long-term value of our assets by giving producers a suite of services with strong market connectivity via multiple pipeline takeaway points.”
The Partnership’s DAPL interconnect provides producers access to DAPL upstream of the delivery and storage hub at Johnsons Corner. AMID also provides hydrogen sulfide treating capabilities to enable producers to meet pipeline specifications for crude oil delivery.
