TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alpha Crude Connector, LLC (“Alpha”) today announced it intends to conduct an Open Season for the Alpha Crude Connector Pipeline (the “Pipeline” or the “System”), a new FERC regulated, crude oil transportation pipeline being constructed in Lea and Eddy Counties New Mexico and Culberson, Loving, Reeves and Winkler Counties, Texas. The Pipeline will have the capacity to accept over 100,000 barrels per day of crude oil from numerous lease tank batteries and other field receipt points and a truck terminal in the northern Delaware Basin.
