MAJOR PROJECTS AND NEWS ITEMS experiencing, and it’s beneficial to us all.” Also included in the project is the construction of a million-barrel storage tank in Colorado City. Construction of the pipe-line and storage tank will likely create dozens of jobs in Mitchell County, at least temporarily, according to Angell. “We struggle with a very high unemployment rate in Colo-rado City,” said Mayor Carol Sue Dakan. “The recent drilling and now this pipeline construction should help that. The eco-nomic impact is going to be a positive thing.” An additional 1.4 million-barrel storage tank will be built in the East Houston Magellan terminal to facilitate pipeline movements. Texas was identified as the top oil-producing state in the nation, according to the latest production assess-ment of the American Petroleum Institute. Barrel-per-day oil production is up from 938,864 to 1.3 million, according to the Texas Railroad Commission. INDUSTRY NEWS (Cypress, TX) – The Board of Directors of PipeLine Machinery International (PLM) approved the ap-pointment of Tony Fernandez as the president of PLM effec-tive January 1, 2013. Brad Tucker will remain Chairman of the Board for PLM. The Board offers their sincere congratu-lations to Fernandez and is looking forward to his continued leadership in this successful organization. Fernandez was instrumental in the early discussions that re-sulted in a four-dealer partnership to form PLM, the first Cat® dealer to focus on a particular industry on a global basis. His pipeline experience was built during his seventeen year history with Cat dealer (and PLM partner) Ring Power Corpo-ration as international accounts manager and pipeline division manager.

.INDUSTRY NEWS (Houston, TX) – Magellan Midstream Partners and Occidental Petroleum Corp. will begin construc-tion early this year on the BridgeTex Pipeline. The 400-mile-long, 20-inch BridgeTex will originate in Colorado City and end in Texas City, and will have the capacity to transport up to 300,000 barrels of crude oil per day. “The BridgeTex pipe-line will transport crude oil from the Permian Basin to the Houston Gulf Coast area, providing a cost-efficient and direct transportation option to address the growing demands from crude oil transportation in the area,” said Bruce Heine, direc-tor of government and media affairs at Magellan. Colorado City is located on the Cline Shale, an area that has seen substantial increases in drilling recently. The joint ven-ture project was announced in late November after receiving several long-term commitments from oil companies drilling in the region. Magellan will serve as the construction manager and operator of the pipeline and storage tanks. “We (Magellan and Occidental) agreed Colorado City is a good origin point for the project,” said Heine. “It is centrally located in the area being drilled and will provide a much-needed transport system for the area.” Magellan began the engineering and design phase of construction on the Bridg-eTex last summer and is currently working on permitting and right-of-way acquisition for the project. “We expect to begin operations of the BridgeTex system in mid-2014,” Hein said. The BridgeTex will flow into Magel-lan’s East Houston terminal, with access to Texas City refin-eries and other refineries across the Gulf Coast via third-party pipelines. “This is going to be great for Colorado City and the entire region,” said Fabio Angell, city manager for Colorado City. “It is what you would call unbelievable growth we are

Fernandez began his PLM career at its inception in 2005 as vice president - Americas and in this role took responsibility for all sales and equipment. He was promoted to executive vice president and general manager in December 2010 where he continued to expand his role, leading PLM towards in-creased international growth. “I am truly honored to work with the PLM organization of more than seventy employees worldwide and look forward to this new role and leading them, our customers and our partners to success in the years to come”, says Fernandez. PLM provides purpose-built and traditional construction equipment to the mainline pipeline construction industry on projects around the world. PLM works closely with pipeline owners, contractors and local Cat dealers to provide solu-tions tailored to the unique product and service needs of the industry. The company’s worldwide activities are currently supported through the corporate office in Cypress, Texas, USA; Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; The Hague, Netherlands; Beijing, China; Melbourne, Australia; and Singapore. INDUSTRY NEWS (Juno Beach, FL) – Florida Power & Light Company recently issued a request for proposals (RFP) to build a third major natural gas pipeline to serve Florida. Over the past decade, FPL has reduced its use of oil by 98 percent by investing in new, highly efficient power plants that use clean, U.S.-produced natural gas as a fuel to produce electricity. In 2001, FPL used more than 40 million barrels of oil to power customers; in 2012, the company will use less than one million barrels. With the two existing major natural gas pipelines serving peninsular Florida nearing full capacity, the state needs new natural gas transportation infrastructure by 2017 to meet the growing need for natural gas power. A new major natural gas pipeline will also improve the reliabil-ity of the state’s critical fuel transportation system and ex-pand the state’s access to onshore sources, helping reduce exposure to offshore sources in the Gulf of Mexico and sup-ply interruptions caused by tropical weather. “Replacing foreign oil with natural gas makes good sense for Florida and the nation. It has saved FPL customers billions of dollars in fuel costs. It also provides significant environ-mental benefits by lowering emissions. However, as we con-tinue to increase our use of U.S.-produced natural gas and as the needs of the state’s residents and businesses grow, we can’t rely solely on the two major pipelines that currently serve the state. A new, third pipeline system that includes a hub to interconnect all three pipeline systems in Central Florida is essential for the continued reliability and security of the state’s supply,” said FPL President Eric Silagy. Florida uses more natural gas for electricity than any U.S. state other than Texas, with about 60 percent of Floridians’ power generated by plants that burn natural gas. But, unlike Texas, Florida has minimal natural gas production, no stor-age capabilities and only two major pipelines to deliver the

fuel necessary to power the peninsula’s residents and busi-nesses. In addition to meeting demand for additional natural gas and mitigating risk, building a new pipeline will generate thousands of jobs during construction and millions of dollars in new tax revenue for local schools and governments. FPL is currently investing to modernize three old, oil and gas-fired power plants into highefficiency natural gas energy cen-ters that will be approximately 33 percent more efficient and 90 percent cleaner than the facilities they replace. The three new plants being built are projected to effectively pay for themselves over their operational lifetimes with more than $1 billion in net customer savings compared with any other avail-able generation options to meet future needs. The net customer savings reflect the expected savings from the plants’ advanced fuel efficiency. FPL believes a new pipeline is the best option to fuel these and FPL’s existing natural gas plants in the near future as the electricity needs of FPL’s customers grow. The proposed new “Southeast Pipe-line” will provide 400,000 MMBtu per day, or approximately 400 million cubic feet per day, of natural gas capacity for FPL beginning in 2017, increasing in capacity in future years. It will be composed of two segments: The “Florida Interstate Connection” and “Central Florida Hub” comprise the upstream pipeline project, which will originate at an existing hub in western Alabama, run east and then south, ending at a new hub to be built in Central Florida

that will allow the new pipeline to interconnect with Florida’s existing pipeline systems. The “Florida Southeast Connection” is the downstream pipe-line project, which will originate at the new Central Florida Hub and connect with FPL’s system in Martin County, Fla. Approximately four-fifths of the roughly 700-mile distance from western Alabama to FPL’s Martin County plant would be covered by the upstream Florida Interstate Connection seg-ment with the other one-fifth covered by the downstream Florida Southeast Connection segment. Interested companies can bid on one or both of the segments. The specific routes will be selected and proposed by companies submitting bids. FPL will oversee a fair, competitive RFP evaluation process that will select the best option or options for FPL customers. As part of the evaluation process, FPL plans to consider a self-build alternative for the downstream Florida Southeast Connection segment. The self-build alternative, if found to be in the best interest of FPL customers, would be owned and operated by a NextEra Energy, Inc. company. No consideration is being given to an FPL self-build alternative for the upstream Florida Interstate Connection and Central Florida Hub portion. However, the cost to build a pipeline project of this size will be substantial, and the completion schedule is critical. To facilitate timely construction, NextEra Energy will be prepared to discuss fi-nancial involvement in support of a selected option. FPL cus-tomers would not provide funding nor see their bills impacted by this in any way.
