Enterprise Products Partners L.P. announced the company has loaded its first two vessels with polymer grade propylene for export at the Enterprise Hydrocarbons Terminal along the Houston Ship Channel, adding a new service at this facility. The company is expecting an increase in the number of PGP export cargoes in response to the growing international demand. The midstream energy service provider has declared to have the capability to load 5,000 metric tons per day of refrigerated PGP at the EHT dock facilities which are supplied directly by propylene fractionators and storage wells at Enterprise’s Mont Belvieu, Texas complex.
Enterprise has recently made enhancements to its pipeline and rail infrastructure to facilitate delivery of refinery grade propylene to its fractionation facilities. RGP, a mixture of propane and propylene, is separated into PGP.
