Phillips 66, Kinder Morgan, HF Sinclair Approve $5B Western Gateway Project

The 1,300-mile system is backed by 10-year take-or-pay contracts and aims to move 230,000 barrels a day to the West Coast.

  • Phillips, Kinder Morgan, and Sinclair finalized a joint venture agreement to proceed with the $5 billion Western Gateway Pipeline system, establishing a fuel supply route connecting the Gulf Coast and Missouri to Arizona and California.
  • Designed to address fuel supply disruptions ahead of planned refinery closures in California, the 1,300-mile Western Gateway Pipeline features a design capacity of 230,000 barrels per day, linking major refining hubs to the isolated West Coast market.
  • Phillips will own 49.9% of the venture, while Kinder Morgan holds 35.1% and Sinclair 15%, with contributions of nearly $2.5 billion, about $250 million, and about $750 million, respectively, toward the $5 billion enterprise value.
  • Operations will reverse the Gold Pipeline from Borger, Texas, to Missouri, incorporating Kinder Morgan's existing SFPP East Line and West Line between Colton, California, and Phoenix, Arizona, valued at about $1.5 billion.
  • Underpinned by 10-year take-or-pay contracts, the project targets completion in 2029. UBS analysts noted the route will benefit Phillips and Sinclair by moving product west, particularly during softer Midwest demand.
