Phillips 66 and Kinder Morgan, Inc. Announce Close of Initial Open Season and Launch of Subsequent Open Season for Capacity to Los Angeles, California Markets

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) and Kinder Morgan, Inc. (NYSE: KMI) today announced that Western Gateway has received significant interest, including shipper commitments, and has closed the initial open season for transportation service on the Western Gateway Pipeline (Western Gateway), a newly proposed refined products pipeline system. Based on shipper interest, Phillips 66 and Kinder Morgan will launch a new open season for remaining capacity on the Western Gateway system in January 2026, which will include an offering of new destination(s) west of Colton, California, via a joint tariff with an existing SFPP line that will be reversed between Watson and Colton, California. Through this joint tariff arrangement, Western Gateway shippers will be able to access Los Angeles markets.

The Western Gateway Pipeline will consist of a new-build pipeline from Borger, Texas to Phoenix, Arizona, combined with Kinder Morgan’s existing SFPP, L.P. pipeline from Colton, California to Phoenix, Arizona, which will be reversed to enable east to west product flows into California. The Western Gateway Pipeline will be fed from supplies connected to Borger, Texas as well as supplies already connected to SFPP’s system in El Paso, Texas. The Gold Pipeline, operated by Phillips 66, which currently flows from Borger to St. Louis, will be reversed to enable refined products from midcontinent refineries to flow toward Borger and supply the Western Gateway Pipeline. The Western Gateway Pipeline will connect Midwest refinery supply to Phoenix and California, with connectivity to Las Vegas, Nevada via Kinder Morgan’s CALNEV Pipeline.
