Energy Transfer is one of the largest and most diversified midstream energy companies in North America with more than 125,000 miles of pipelines and associated energy infrastructure in 44 states, transporting the oil and gas products that make our lives possible.

The energy industry plays a vital role in the region driving economic growth, generating well-paying jobs and actively contributing to local communities. Energy Transfer stands as a critical component of this interconnected system, ensuring its continued significance.

In the Northeast United States, we operate more than 8,200 miles of pipeline infrastructure and various types of energy infrastructure and facilities including terminals and gathering systems.

Energy Transfer’s diverse assets in the northeast region serve to process, store and transport a variety of energy products that we rely on in our everyday lives.

Natural gas is an efficient, reliable and affordable fuel source used to power and heat homes and businesses. According to the American Gas Association, nearly 187 million Americans use natural gas to heat their homes and cook their food because it is affordable, reliable, safe and essential to improving our environment.

Natural gas liquids (NGLs) are components of natural gas that are separated from the gaseous state at processing plants. Natural gas liquids, such as ethane, propane and butane, have a multitude of uses for things we depend on in our daily lives. This includes cooking, home heating, refrigeration, vehicle fuel and the production of plastics that are critical to health care and hygiene, including personal protective equipment.

Crude oil, also called petroleum, is an unrefined liquid fuel source extracted through drilling that is refined and used to make a variety of energy products we use every day.

Refined products are derived from crude oil and include fuels such as heating oil, gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel.

Energy Transfer in Ohio

With company origins dating back to 1886, Energy Transfer has deep roots in Ohio, beginning with the Sun Company’s first oil refinery in Toledo. Today, we operate more than 2,300 miles of pipelines and 15 marketing terminals, including the Rover Pipeline, Mariner West, Allegheny Access and marketing terminal and related assets.  

The Rover Pipeline spans approximately 720 miles and has the capacity to transport 3.4 billion cubic feet per day of domestically produced natural gas from the Marcellus and Utica Shale regions to markets nationwide.

Marcus Hook Terminal

The Marcus Hook Terminal has revitalized the former refinery into a world-class natural gas liquids (NGL) hub. To achieve this, our facility has built new processing units for the safe processing of ethane and propane, as well as ethane and propane chilling and refrigerated storage. This includes a propane chilling expansion project in 2020. Going back to 2013, we have built six tanks storing approximately 3 million barrels of propane, ethane and butane to support our Mariner East Pipeline System, in addition to existing storage capacity of 2 million barrels in underground caverns.

Energy Transfer has also built a fractionator at MHT to process natural gas liquids that it will transport along the Mariner East Pipeline System from western Pennsylvania.

Marketing Terminals and Refined Products Pipelines

Our marketing terminals located in the northeast facilitate the movement of refined products to or from storage or transportation systems, such as a pipeline, to other transportation systems, such as trucks or other pipelines. Each facility typically consists of multiple storage tanks and is equipped with automated truck loading equipment that is operational 24 hours a day.

In the northeast, the Eastern refined products pipelines consist of approximately 1,016 miles of 6-inch to 16-inch pipe in Eastern, Central and North Central Pennsylvania, an 8-inch refined products pipeline in western New York and various diameters of refined products pipeline in New Jersey (including 80 miles of the 16-inch diameter Harbor Pipeline). These systems connect energy resources to the largest consumer markets in the United States.
