It’s safe to say the nation’s midstream industry is busier than popcorn in a skillet. Tulsa, Okla.-based ONEOK is no exception with a crush of new builds and expansions in basins crying out for more natural gas and NGL infrastructure.

ONEOK is a leading midstream service provider and own one of the nation’s premier natural gas liquids systems, connecting NGL supply in the Mid-Continent, Permian and Rocky Mountain regions with key market centers and an extensive network of natural gas gathering, processing, storage and transportation assets.
It’s safe to say the nation’s midstream industry is busier than popcorn in a skillet. Tulsa, Okla.-based ONEOK is no exception with a crush of new builds and expansions in basins crying out for more natural gas and NGL infrastructure.
RMR today is studying ONEOK’s impressive body of growth projects this year that is making—or soon will make—all the difference to producers in the Permian, Mid-Continent, Rocky Mountains and Williston Basin. As one of the nation’s largest midstream service providers, ONEOK operates a 38,000-mile integrated network comprised of gas and NGL pipelines, 20 processing plants, a combined 75 MMBbls of storage capacity, 7 fractionators and 8 NGL product terminals.
The company last month completed expansion of the 200 MMcfd Demicks Lake I natural gas processing facility in the Williston with the Demicks Lake II coming right on its heels with service expected in January. ONEOK also is currently building the 900-mile Elk Creek NGL pipeline that will extend from eastern Mont., to its processing facility in Bushton, Kans., and the 530-mile Arbuckle II NGL pipeline, which will stretch from Okla., to the company’s fractionation facilities in Mont Belvieu, Texas. In addition, two new fractionators at Mont Belvieu are simultaneously underway.
And there’s more to come from ONEOK to keep those hydrocarbons moving long into the future, so stay with RMR for the latest updates.
