295,000 barrels per day of new NGL export capacity is heading to Southeast Texas, and the work runs through 2029. Energy Transfer is expanding its Nederland terminal on the Sabine-Neches Waterway between Beaumont and Port Arthur. Two new ship docks, a pipeline expansion from Mont Belvieu, and refrigerated storage buildout that will make Nederland the largest NGL export complex on the Gulf Coast. Pipeline crews, terminal mechanical contractors, and industrial services subs in that corridor have multi-year work on the horizon. The numbers worth knowing: 240,000 bpd of new ethane capacity, 55,000 bpd of additional LPG, and storage expansions across ethane, propane, and butane coming online in phases starting 2027. All of the new ethane capacity is already committed under long-term contracts running into the 2040s. That's not speculative spend. Energy Transfer is projecting $5 billion to $5.5 billion in total growth investment this year alone. Work begins staging in 2028, docks complete by mid-2029. If your crews operate in the Beaumont-Port Arthur area, this is the kind of capital commitment worth tracking now, before the pre-construction pipeline gets crowded. https://lnkd.in/eCtiN_7v #FieldServices #Subcontractors #Texas #GOM #IndustryNews
