The all-new Hugh Brinson Pipeline supports continued US gas market growth amid global calls for energy diversification.

Energy Transfer’s Hugh Brinson Pipeline targets late-2026 startup

Energies Media reports that Energy Transfer is advancing the Hugh Brinson Pipeline, a new 442-mile project designed to move natural gas from processing facilities in Texas into existing pipeline infrastructure south of the Dallas–Fort Worth area. The company said the pipeline remains on schedule for completion in late 2026, with initial deliveries expected toward the end of 2026.

The article notes that the project is part of a broader buildout of Permian Basin natural gas takeaway capacity aimed at serving growing demand from Texas markets and other downstream customers. Energy Transfer also said the project has progressed through required regulatory processes and that much of the route follows an existing pipeline right-of-way to help limit construction impacts. For additional context on the wider trend, see Ranger coverage on the Permian pipeline buildout and recent capacity additions like the Matterhorn Express expansion.

Energies Media adds that construction began in 2025 and the project is expected to support local manufacturing of steel components. During construction, Energy Transfer said the effort provided nearly 3,100 jobs, with an additional 34 full-time roles associated with the project.

Matterhorn Express expansion is in service, boosting Permian gas throughput and easing regional pipeline bottlenecks.

Matterhorn expansion likely online, boosting Permian gas flows

A key expansion on the Matterhorn Express Pipeline appears to be in service, adding new takeaway capacity for Permian Basin natural gas, according to a recent report from East Daley Analytics.

Pipeline flow data monitored by East Daley show deliveries on Matterhorn rising from a steady 1.65 billion cubic feet per day since June to as high as 1.95 billion cubic feet per day in November, indicating the long-anticipated 0.5 billion cubic feet per day compression expansion may now be operating.

“After consistently delivering about 1.65 billion cubic feet per day since June to the Katy market, Matterhorn flows jumped to as high as 1.95 billion cubic feet per day in November,” East Daley reported, noting the sustained increase “suggests that expansion is now underway or completed.”

US crude oil production hit a monthly record in Aug 2023, with an average output of 13.05 million bpd, breaking previous month's record.

How the US is pumping more oil with fewer rigs

Falling and Flatlining Rig Count

US is Pumping More Oil despite the falling and flatlining rig count, U.S. crude oil production managed to hit a monthly record-high in August 2023, boosted by productivity gains and more efficient operations.

U.S. exploration and production companies are drilling longer laterals and deploying rigs to the most promising areas to get more bang for their buck.

U.S. field production of crude oil reached 404.6 million barrels during the month of August, new EIA data showed this week, for an average of 13.05 million barrels per day—squarely breaking the previous record U.S. drillers set in July of 401.73 million barrels.

US is pumping more oil and it Increases in production catch sight in PADDs 1, 2, 3, and 4, with the largest percentage increase in production seen in PADD 4, which comprises Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming. The largest actual increase is distinguish in PADD 2, which includes North Dakota, Illinois, and Kentucky, among other states.

Crude Oil Production Reached a Record High

In Texas, the top oil-producing state, crude oil production reached a record high of 5.7 million barrels per day (bpd) in August, per the most recent monthly energy economic analysis by Texas Oil & Gas Association (TXOGA) Chief Economist Dean Foreman.

“Texas’ production of oil and natural gas has achieved records despite relatively modest drilling activity. Productivity gains and leveraging wells that have been drilled but not yet completed have provided a tailwind,” Foreman wrote at the end of September.

Producers in the Permian in Texas and New Mexico and the other shale plays have boosted production of crude oil despite a loss of 117 rigs so far this year, per Baker Hughes data as of October 27.

U.S. crude oil producers have been shedding rigs for most of the year, while the rig count largely stabilized in October.
