DALLAS and TULSA, Okla., and FINDLAY, Ohio, and BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Sept. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (NYSE: ETP) ("Energy Transfer"), Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (NYSE: MMP) ("Magellan"), MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX) ("MPLX") and Delek US Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: DK) ("Delek") announced today that they have received sufficient commitments to proceed with plans to construct a new 30-inch diameter common carrier pipeline to transport crude oil from the Permian Basin to the Texas Gulf Coast region, with the ability to increase the pipe diameter to expand the capacity based upon additional commitments received during the upcoming open season. An open season for additional shipper volume commitments on the new pipeline system will be launched this week.
