Fueling the West

Phillips 66 and Kinder Morgan announced the advancement of the Western Gateway Pipeline (Western Gateway), a proposed refined products pipeline system, following a successful second open season that secured long-term shipper commitments sufficient to move the project forward, subject to the execution of definitive transportation service agreements, joint venture agreements, and respective board approvals.

The Western Gateway Pipeline will be a partnership between Phillips 66 and Kinder Morgan creating a new path for refined products stretching from St. Louis, Missouri to California. The Western Gateway Pipeline will consist of a new-build pipeline from Borger, Texas to Phoenix, Arizona, combined with Kinder Morgan’s existing SFPP, L.P. (SFPP) pipeline from Colton, California to Phoenix, Arizona, which will be reversed to enable east to west product flows into California. The Gold Pipeline, operated by Phillips 66, which currently flows from Borger to St. Louis, will also be reversed to enable refined products from Illinois refineries to flow toward Borger and supply the Western Gateway Pipeline. 

The Western Gateway Pipeline is targeting completion by 2029.
