Port Arthur Pipeline Texas Connector

The 26.6-mile northern portion of the proposed Port Arthur Pipeline Texas Connector (PAPTC) project would extend from Vidor in Orange County, TX to the proposed liquefaction project, with the majority of the proposed pipeline co-located with existing energy infrastructure rights-of-way. The approximately seven-mile southern portion of the proposed Pipeline Project would originate in Cameron Parish, Louisiana on the east bank of Sabine Lake and terminate at the Port Arthur Liquefaction Project.

The proposed PAPTC project would interconnect the Port Arthur LNG project to various intra- and interstate pipelines, providing access to a number of major U.S. natural gas supply basins.

Proposed Project Schedule

PAPTC received authorization from FERC in April 2019 (Docket # CP-17-21-000). All other major regulatory permits have been received.

Development of PAPTC is contingent upon completing the required commercial agreements, securing minor permits and approvals, obtaining financing and incentives, achieving other customary conditions, reaching a final investment decision and other factors associated with the investments.
