Energy Transfer LP is expecting to make a final investment decision (FID) within months on the proposed 1.5-2.0 Bcf/d Warrior Natural Gas pipeline to move supply from the Permian Basin.

Shipper interest in the project “has picked up steam,” Co-CEO Marshall McCrea told analysts during the Dallas-based midstreamer’s second quarter earnings call. “There is a tremendous market east…heading through Texas and other parts of the country really. And so we’re very excited about where we sit on Warrior and I’ll just say it, I’ll be disappointed…if we’re not announcing FID by our next earnings call.”

The 42-inch diameter pipeline, if sanctioned, would stretch 325 miles from the Permian to interconnect south of Dallas. There, the system can access Gulf Coast hubs including Katy, Beaumont, the Houston Ship Channel, and the Gillis and Henry hubs.
