Overland Pass Pipeline

About Overland Pass Pipeline Approximately a 750-mile transmission pipeline Originates in Opal, WY and ends at Conway, KS Traverses 23 counties in 3 states 90% of route follows existing utility corridors Transports natural gas liquids (NGLs)

Blacks Fork

About Overland Pass Pipeline Approximate $450 million capital investment 14 and 16-inch diameter pipe (varies) Made of high-strength steel Buried minimum of 36” below ground Maximum operating pressure 1,440 psig (Prior to start up pipe is tested to 1800 psig) Pipe capacity range 90, ,000 barrels per day

Local Economic Impacts WYCOKS Miles of pipe Annual tax revenue $1.5 million$990,000$7.5 million Capital investment $215 million$98 million$145 million Construction payroll $17.6 million$10.4 million$15.3 million

Pump Stations 3 pump stations used to move NGLs –Two in Wyoming - for startup –One in Kansas - for maximum capacity This project is more efficient because gravity helps move the product (meaning fewer pump stations required)

Green River

There are two NGL Hubs in the U.S. where mixed NGL Products are fractionated, or separated into individual components Mont Belvieu, Texas Conway, Kansas (includes multiple areas) Bushton, Kansas Hutchison, Kansas Mitchell, Kansas Conway, Kansas
