BP's NGL & Sulphur Business
BP’s NGL Marketing & Trading business moves over 220,000 barrels per day (bpd)of NGL products from gas production plants and refineries to wholesalers, retailers and brokers across North America via pipeline, rail, and truck, to end users, as well as via barge and large vessel for export.
Natural Gas Liquids, including ethane, propane, butane and pentane are byproducts of natural gas, extracted during gas refining. When customers and counterparties need reliable NGL product supply at competitive prices, in addition to assistance in managing the price risk uncertainty, they turn to BP, a leading provider of NGL products and services.
BP Energy Company employs 65 people to market and trade NGL products in North America. Additionally BP employs approximately 50 in Structured Products and Producer Services. With a large NGL rail fleet, BP NGL markets to over 200 customers, generating over 220,000 bpd in product movement and 1 million NGL bpd traded.
BP NGL provides supply chain value by transporting the gas liquids from origin point to areas of high demand. BP utilizes wholesalers, brokers and retailers as needed, to meet end user NGL demand, such as propane for residential or commercial appliances; ethane for petrochemical facilities to feed furnaces; or natural gasoline / condensates to be used as diluents to facilitate the flow of heavy oil/oil sands.
Colleagues in BP North American Gas & Power, Oil America and LNG businesses work together as ‘One team’ to provide added services and value to NGL Midstream customers. BP helps customers assess needs from a supply and financial perspective, and then develop a comprehensive business strategy to meet those needs to include multiple commodities, producer services and asset management solutions.
