How M-U NGLs Get Exported – ET’s Mariner Pipelines & Marcus Hook

NGLs, or natural gas liquids, are an essential revenue stream for Marcellus/Utica drillers in the "wet gas" regions of the play. Those regions are found in southwestern Pennsylvania, the northern panhandle of West Virginia, and eastern Ohio. There are several pipelines that flow M-U NGLs to other regions or to export facilities. Among them is Enterprise Products Partners' 1,230-mile Appalachia to Texas Express (ATEX) pipeline to the Gulf Coast, and Kinder Morgan's 270-mile Utica-to-Ontario-Pipeline-Access (UTOPIA) pipeline from Harrison County, Ohio, to Windsor in Canada’s Ontario province. However, most M-U NGLs travel through Energy Transfer's Mariner East and West pipelines, with Mariner East flowing to the Marcus Hook export terminal near Philadelphia.
