The newly constructed line will stretch about 635 miles long and transport natural gas liquids from the Permian Basin of West Texas in addition to the company’s North Texas system to the final destination of  Targa’s complex in Mont Belvieu, located in east Texas.

Targa’s new natural gas liquids pipeline will be able to transfer as much as 550,000 barrels per day. Targa in the Permian area of west Texas has about 1.7 billion cubic feet per day of current gas processing capacity. Representatives from Targa have stated that surveying is already underway. Grand Prix is expected to be in service by the second quarter of 2019. Numerous counties that will likely be impacted by the Targa easement takings, including Eastland, Evath, Hood and Johnson.
