*Glass Mountain Pipeline, LLC was originally a joint venture between NGL Energy Partners LP and SemGroup Corporation.[2] In November 2017, NGL Energy Partners LP sold its 50% interest to BlackRock Inc.'s Global Energy and Power Infrastructure Fund (GEPIF) in partnership with Navigator Energy Services. The parent companies are therefore inferred to be BlackRock and Navigator Energy Services. Note IJGlobal's Asset Data lists ownership as Global Energy and Power Infrastructure Fund II [97.00%]; Navigator Energy Services [3.00%][3]

Glass Mountain Pipeline is a 215-mile intrastate pipeline located in western and north central Oklahoma. The pipeline consists of two 12-inch diameter laterals lines, one originating near the town of Alva in Woods County, Oklahoma and the second lateral originating near the town of Arnett in Ellis County, Oklahoma. The laterals intersect near Cleo Springs in Major County, Oklahoma where the pipeline increases to 18-inch in diameter and continues east to Cushing, Oklahoma. Glass Mountain Pipeline has a capacity of 140,000 barrels per day and 1,440,000 barrels of intermediate storage. The pipeline carries production from the Granite Wash and Mississippi Lime Play.[4]
Expansion projects
Expansion
The expansion pipeline run from Canadian, Kingfisher and Grady Counties, Oklahoma to Cushing, Oklahoma.
- Operator:
- Owner: Glass Mountain Pipeline, LLC[2]
- Parent company: BlackRock; Navigator Energy Services
- Capacity: 50,000 barrels per day
- Length: 70 miles
- Status: Shelved
- Start year: 2021
In February of 2019, the owners of Glass Mountain Oil Pipeline announced an expansion project which will include five new mainline origination points in Canadian, Kingfisher and Grady Counties, Oklahoma, further extending service into the STACK, Woodford/Cana, Merge and SCOOP plays. The expansion includes approximately 70 miles of new transportation mainlines and approximately 750,000 barrels of additional storage capacity. Underpinning the expansion are multiple long-term agreements with top tier operators representing more than 50,000 barrels per day (bpd) of existing production and almost 600,000 operated acres, bringing Navigator’s total dedicated acreage in Oklahoma to more than 800,000 acres. "Navigator is already providing service at one of the five new origin points" according to reports in February 2019, and the company "expects to be in service with the entire expansion in the third quarter of 2019."[5]
As of February 2020, Navigator has not announced completion of its expansion project.[6] As of 2021 there was no further evidence for development of the expansion, so it is considered shelved.
