Great news! Energy Transfer announced yesterday a 5.6 billion dollar project to run a natural gas pipeline from Reeves County, Texas to Arizona.

ONEOK approved a 365 million dollar natural gas plant in Reeves County.

As a surface landowner, I am excited. Is that excitement premature? What do you all think about these new developments???

Until things actually happen, I would temper any enthusiasm.

But taking Permian Gas to western markets is a very positive move.

And new gas plant always welcome - but there needs to be the takeaway capacity for the processed gas.

There was talk about a new gas line to Mexico - I wonder how that is going?

Yes sir. Thanks for the feedback. Infinium is doing that effort to Mexico. I read it is a facility in Pecos that will handle that effort. 2027 is the projected completion date.

Does it say where or what block it will start at? Did they show a map? Thank you.

Unfortunately they did not. But if you are a landowner surface there is 6 billion worth of projects that are coming down the pike. Don’t be surprised if you get some lease offers or offers to buy your land. Mine is near FM 2119.

I really wouldn’t know where that is. But my surface land is in the E 1/2 of NE 1/4 of the NE 1/4 of Section 14, Block 7. Thank you for the updates and information.

I am in Block 45 Section 37 and Section 35. I am right near FM 2119. I think we all as landowners in this area have a reason to be excited. I definitely am. There are projects that will be going out up to 2030 at the least. I definitely will post if I find out any new info. In and around Pecos to Culberson County.

Thank you, I am Reeves County, so if you hear anything about Reeves County, I would love to know. Thanks.

I have surface acres in Block 58, Section 24, which is really not very far from you, Keith. I recently received a notice from the PUC that Oncor Electric has applied to build a new transmission line in Culberson/Reeves. I don’t know yet if my property will be on their desired route but it is another indication of projects going on in the area.

My surface is in Block 1 right off the I-10. We’ve gotten paid for pipelines and electric transmission lines, etc. in the past, so I got my fingers crossed! Glad there’s a place where we all can share intel.

Hello David! Thank you for sharing your experience. If you don’t mind me asking, did you lease your land to them or did you sell it to them outright?

We always did easements/rights of way. I don’t think we characterized any of them as leases, and we don’t sell anything. We work with a lawyer who guides us on all that stuff and usually ends up preparing the documents.

That sounds like a good deal. As you saw on my initial post there are multiple projects that have been funded and are about to commence in our area. Then Joy\_Roberts contributed to the discussion with her good news. I think that it’s good if anyone in our area hears any updates to please share.

I get a lot of offers to sell my Reeves County producing minerals. Am hoping to get production from 2 more zones. I’m in Toyah Lake area. Block C-7, PSL.

That is awesome! I have 20 acres in Reeves. I am hoping to land a pipeline easement agreement at some point. There is a lot of activity projected for the Delaware Basin for the next 10 years! Best of luck to you in your endeavors!

Toyah area in southern Reeves County is anomalous due to its shallow nature but gas-prone reservoirs. Primary targets are Woodford and Barnett (gas) with some lesser Wolfcamp target(s) that are more liquid prone.

Very different from Northern Reeves County where up to 8 different horizons can be legitimate horizontal target zones in more liquid/oil prone areas.

Issue with developing this part of Reeves County is gas pipeline takeaway capacity complicated by low gas prices and limited associated liquids from the main target zones.

Apache hit this area hard a few years ago (their Alpine High area) but pulled back primarily due to low gas price environment.

Recently had a notice of transmission lines from a proposed 345 kV transmission line project in Reeves and Pecos counties. AEP and TNMP venture. These things look huge. Hopefully worth something. Finally something involving 2903 as well as the north side of 10.

That’s awesome! What in your opinion would those companies potentially pay a landowner for something like that?

A total unknown for me, but it’s 60 - 70 miles of infrastructure all around the area, not just 1 line but multiple lines. It is unclear from the map how many lines are the huge ones versus those just for local power transmission. I assume the payment and easement required varies greatly between those carrying power locally and those carrying power regionally. The information I was provided reflects the project as south of Toyah and Pecos down to IH 10.

Lots of infrastructure - but not all infrastructure is created equal.

Local transmission lines for public / business use will not take raw gas from produced wells. Many of the older gas lines from earlier drilling efforts are probably no longer active / hooked up to end processing plant. Active lines that can take produced gas will have limitations as to gas quality plus may have limits on how much extra gas can be taken.

If produced gas has H2S or excessive CO2 or Nitrogen, many gathering lines will take the gas until those impurities have been stripped out by the well operator.

All raw produced gas needs to go to a processing plant to strip out NGL’s. The stripped gas - which is then close to about 1000 BTU - is then ready to be sent out for public / commercial use.

It is difficult for the layman to figure out the details for each gas line. The Tx RRC has an option on their GIS site but it is often difficult to get to the bottom line “facts” for any one line.
