SUNOCO PARTNERS MARKETING AND TERMINALS
MARINER SOUTH PROJECTLPG TERMINAL
NEDERLAND, TEXAS
Project Site Ship Visible at Dock 3
5 ship docks designed for Aframax tankships 80K - 120K DWT
Mooring piles with quick-release capabilities
Mooring system analysis being conducted for slightly smaller LPGCs
Terminal details
Transfer propane/butane to/from liquefied gas carriers
Dual purpose – import and export of propane and butane based upon market demand
Annual throughput ~72,600,000 bbl
Planned Operations
Slightly smaller than AFRAMAXCapacities up to 83,000 m3
Fully refrigeratedEstimate 7-9 /moMaximum 11/ mo
LPGCs
Sabine Pilots Sabine Neches Navigation District (SNND)
USCG MSU
Consultations
No unusual challengesLPGCs within the size range for night transit
Traffic increase within usual ranges
No differences compared to other traffic
Nothing to preclude LPG operations
Same issues as for as LNG until get above Golden Pass
Project width 400 - 800 ft Depth 40 ft minimumPort Arthur Ship Canal –no developed areas
Characterization of the LPGC Route
West Port Arthur / City of Port Arthur Residential/industrial at Port Neches Residential areas at Nederland ~1.4 miles
from dock Environmental Resources LPG operations present no new risks for
those areas
Sabine-Neches Canal & Neches River
Modest increase in deep draft vessel traffic volume
2,800 vessel arrivals & 71,000 barge transits in 2012
20% to/beyond Sunoco 8 LPGCs/mo = 96/yr = 3.4% increase 11 LPGCs/mo = 132/yr = 4.7% increase
Marine Safety Change Analysis
Pilots – 29 pilots and 2 trainees – Adequate for expected levels of operations
Tugs – local fleet = 11 vessels– #1 concern overall– Fleet might have to grow to meet demand
Impacts on Local Services
Safety Risk Assessment Summary
Initial Security Risk Assessment Summary
Waterways leading to the Mariner South Project LPG Terminal at Nederland, TX are suitable for marine LPG operations
