Basin a victim of its own stunning success? Oil production in the Permian, that petroleum rich landmass straddling Texas and New Mexico, has been wrestling with takeaway capacity over the last 18 months. Production consistently outpaces the ability of Permian producers to deliver the commodity to shippers and refineries. That, coupled with <a title="Refinery shutdowns" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-25/refinery-shutdowns-threaten-to-raise-u-s-pump-prices.html" target="_blank">recent refinery outages</a>, has forced West Texas producers to swallow deep discounts whenever current pipeline capacity is squeezed.</p> <p>But that bottleneck conundrum may soon be lifting. <span id="more-4806"></span>On September 29 the <a title="BridgeTex Pipeline" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.clineshale.info/uploads/BridgeTex_pipeline_Colorado_City-Hou_121120.pdf" target="_blank">BridgeTex pipeline</a>, a 400-mile $1 billion crude conduit, went online. A joint venture between Tulsa, Oklahoma-based Magellan Partners and Occidental Petroleum, BridgeTex spans from Colorado City, Texas, to the Houston Gulf Coast. The pipeline has a robust capacity of 300,000 barrels per day. Launched in 2012, the project also聽 includes 1.2 million barrels of storage capacity in Colorado City and another 1.4 million barrels in Houston.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.txoilinvestments.com/" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-4787 size-full" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055im_/http://www.arescotx.com/wp-content/uploads/permian-basin-investing-questions.gif" alt="Permian Basin Investing Questions?" width="600" height="40"/></a></p> <p><strong>Permian Bottleneck Relief</strong><br/> BridgeTex was designed to ship two grades of crude: West Texas Intermediate (<a title="Sweet Crude Oil" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/tag/sweet-crude-oil/">Texas Sweet Light</a>) and West Texas Sour (medium-density, high-sulfur crude).

In 2012 the Permian generated more than $137 billion of economic output and sustained more than 546,000 jobs, according to a study released by Texas Tech University and the Permian Basin Petroleum Association. Those figures have no doubt increased substantially.</p> <p>Of the 1,591 oilrigs operating in the U.S., the majority鈥攐r roughly 554鈥攊s located in the Permian. The <a title="Eagle Ford Shale" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/tag/eagle-ford-shale/">Eagle Ford Shale</a> formation has 202 oilrigs, while the <a title="Bakken Shale" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/tag/bakken-shale/">Bakken Shale</a> formation in North Dakota has 198 and the <a title="Mississippian Lime Formation" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.cnbc.com/id/47633423#." target="_blank">Mississippian Lime Formation</a> (Northern Oklahoma into southwestern Kansas) is home to 74.

Most new production lies in the Midland and Delaware basins鈥攚ell to the west of Colorado City. This means crude supplies from these Western basins must get to Colorado City before they can enter the BridgeTex pipeline and on to shipping and refining outposts.</p> <p>Most of the existing pipelines that can accommodate transit to Colorado City are at or near capacity, meaning much Permian production is still constrained. These restrictions should be relieved in January 2015 when oil will begin flowing along the Plains Sunrise pipeline (250,000 barrels per day). The Plains Sunrise links Midland to Colorado City鈥攁nd the Permian鈥檚 most robust basins to BridgeTex and beyond.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.txoilinvestments.com/" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-4720 size-full" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055im_/http://www.arescotx.com/wp-content/uploads/investing-in-permian-basin-oil.jpg" alt="investing-in-permian-basin-oil" width="600" height="200"/></a></p> <div class="nextpages"></div> <p><b><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/permian-basin-news/">previous post: Permian Basin News</a></b></p> <p><b><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/permian-basin-oil-well-photos/">next post: Permian Basin Oil Well Photos</a></b></p> </div><!-- end content --> <div id="sidebar"> <div id="flags" class="size"><ul id="sortable" class="ui-sortable" style="float:left"><li id="English"><a title="English" class="notranslate flag en"></a></li></ul></div><div id="google_language_translator"></div> <p class="titles">Recent News</p> <ul> <li> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/what-determines-crude-oil-prices/">What determines crude oil prices?</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150126032055/http://www.arescotx.com/will-opec-fueled-price-crater-spell-permian-extinction-not-a-chance/">Will OPEC-Fueled Price Crater Spell Permian Extinction?
