Crosstex Energy Acquires Intracoastal Pipeline from Chevron

DALLAS--The Crosstex Energy companies, Crosstex Energy, L.P. (the Partnership) and Crosstex Energy, Inc. (the Corporation), announced today that the Partnership has acquired the Intracoastal Pipeline, an approximately 60-mile natural gas liquids (NGL) pipeline, from Chevron Midstream Pipelines, a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation for approximately $10 million. The Intracoastal Pipeline, which extends from Patterson to Henry in southern Louisiana, connects to Crosstex’s Pelican processing plant and accesses other third-party processing plants in the region. NGL’s produced at Crosstex’s Pelican plant flow through the Intracoastal Pipeline to Crosstex’s Cajun-Sibon NGL pipeline for delivery to the Partnership’s Riverside fractionator. Crosstex’s Eunice processing plant also is connected to the Cajun-Sibon NGL pipeline.

“The Intracoastal Pipeline will serve as a strategic link between our Pelican and Eunice processing facilities and our Eunice and Riverside fractionators. We believe the pipeline will enhance our operational efficiencies and competitive advantages in the region, allowing us to maximize benefits from the processing and NGL value chain”
