Seminole Red Pipeline is an operating NGL pipeline in the United States. During 2019–2023 the pipeline carried crude oil and was referred to as either the Seminole Red Pipeline or the Midland-to-ECHO 2 Crude Oil Pipeline. It is likely to be converted back to crude oil service again once the Bahia Pipeline is built.

Location

The pipeline runs from X to Y.

Background

The pipeline infrastructure was initially built in 1980.

In October 2023, Enterprise announced expansions of its Permian takeaway capacity. To provide incremental NGL transportation service until construction of the proposed Bahia Pipeline was completed, Enterprise converted the Seminole Red Pipeline back to NGL service in December 2023. This pipeline had been in crude oil transportation service since the second quarter of 2019 and was known as Enterprise’s Midland-to-ECHO 2 Crude Oil Pipeline.
