Western Gateway Pipeline

Project Overview

On October 20, 2025, KMI and Phillips 66 launched a binding open season for transportation service on the Western Gateway Pipeline, a newly proposed refined products pipeline system. After receiving significant interest, including shipper commitments, KMI and Phillips 66 announced the start of a second open season on January 16, 2026.

The Western Gateway Pipeline will connect Midwest and other refinery supply to Phoenix and California, with connectivity to Las Vegas, Nevada via Kinder Morgan's CALNEV pipeline. The second open season, which concludes on March 31, 2026, is for remaining capacity, and adds new access to the Los Angeles market via a joint tariff supported by the planned reversal of one of KMI's existing SFPP lines between Watson and Colton, California. In addition to expanding the offered destinations, the second open season adds additional origin points to enable supply diversification and optionality for customers. Following the successful open season, the Western Gateway Pipeline and KMI's SFPP's East Line will be jointly owned by Phillips 66 and KMI.
