Mid-America Pipeline Co. recently celebrated its 35th birthday by constructing a 400-mile expansion across New Mexico in only one year while strictly adhering to an array of federal, state and Native American regulations. The new 12-inch loop parallels two existing lines from the Four Corners producing region in San Juan County, NM, to Mid-America`s Hobbs Station in Gaines County, TX. A 14-mile, 10-inch lateral also was constructed to receive deliveries direct from El Paso Natural Gas Co.`s new Chaco processing plant near Bloomfield, NM. The project increased the capacity on Mid-America`s Four Corners System from 135,000 barrels per day of natural gas liquids to 185,000. The paper discusses the problems encountered and the company`s solutions.
