HAVEN, Kan. (AP) — A new natural gas liquids extraction plant began operating in central Kansas this week.
The Tenewa Haven Processing plant started operations Monday near Haven, in Reno County. The plant is near K-96, at the junction of two major natural gas pipelines owned by Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line.
The Wichita Eagle reports the plant separates natural gas liquids from methane and pipes them to an Oneok Hydrocarbon gas fractionation plant near Hutchinson, where they will be separated into individual products.
Company president Greg Ameringer said the Haven plant can handle 1.3 billion cubic feet of natural gas liquids a day. It employs 12 people.
Ameringer says no natural gas liquids are stored at the plant and all the gas handled there will be immediately shipped out.
