James Lake Midstream

CMP began development of James Lake Midstream in late 2013 in response to producer demand for improved sour gas gathering and processing services in the Central Basin Platform.  When completed in 2015, the James Lake Midstream system consisted of approximately 220 miles of gathering pipelines, eight field compression stations, 110 MMcfd of gas processing capacity at a central plant location, including amine treating and an acid gas injection well to sequester recovered CO2 and H2S.  James Lake Midstream was sold in 2019.

Nabors Rig 730 is on site and spudded the James Lake Injection #1 well on May 12, 2014. We expect 30 days drilling time to total depth (TD) of 13,500’ into the Ellenburger formation.

May 11, 2014 - Cottonwood Compressor Station Is Completed and Ready to Flow after 10 Weeks of Construction

May 8, 2014 - Significant Progress on Multiple Fronts

Construction of the Cottonwood Compressor Station in Ector County is substantially complete, with minor clean-up work remaining. We are nearing completion of approximately 13 miles of pipeline between the Cottonwood Compressor Station and the James Lake Plant (the Cottonwood Lateral) and approximately 4 miles of pipeline between the James Lake Plant and a downstream pipeline that will be used for interim gas deliveries while construction is completed at the James Lake Plant.

Construction activity is accelerating at the James Lake Plant. We have completed all the surface site work on our 100-acre property and are pouring foundations and piers for our pipe rack. We created an on-site caliche pit for the surface sites and roads. Equipment deliveries have commenced, including our first 30 MMcf/day capacity cryogenic processing train. We expect the second cryogenic processing train, with a capacity of 75 MMcf/day, to be delivered in late summer. The drilling rig that will be used to create our injection well is on site and we expect to spud the well during the week of May 12.

We are nearing completion of right of way for our gathering trunklines, low pressure gathering systems and surface sites for our compressor stations. Pipeline construction is expected to begin in June.
