Koch Pipeline Co. called off plans to build a 250,000-barrel-a-day crude line to Illinois from North Dakota’s Bakken formation, where a shale boom has helped lift domestic production to the highest in a quarter-century.
The indirect subsidiary of Koch Industries Inc., one of the
largest private companies in the U.S., is no longer developing the
so-called Dakota Express pipeline, Jake Reint, a Koch spokesman, said by
e-mail yesterday. He didn’t provide a reason for the decision. The
Wichita, Kansas-based company was scheduled to begin a 45-day open
season to gauge interest from potential shippers on the line in July.
“The non-binding open season for the Dakota Express pipeline
is no longer being pursued,” Reint, based in Wichita, said in the
e-mail. MORE
