This pipeline project promises to boost gasoline supplies in Southern California

Phillips 66 and Kinder Morgan have announced plans to move forward with a pipeline project that would provide Southern California a much-needed connection to gasoline and other refined products via fuel terminals in other parts of the country.

In a joint statement, the two companies said there’s been more than sufficient interest from investors and shippers to proceed with the Western Gateway Pipeline — designed to run 1,300 miles from St. Louis to California.

If completed, the pipeline will be the first-ever pipeline system to deliver motor fuels into California.

Kinder Morgan and Phillips 66 officials have set an in-service target date of mid-2029. If completed, the pipeline would use a combination of existing infrastructure plus new construction.
