Fairway is constructing the first major underground crude storage facility in the Houston area. The facility is being constructed at Pierce Junction, fewer than 3 miles south of the Houston Astrodome. Twin 24-inch bidirectional pipelines will connect Fairway’s cavern storage to existing Houston storage terminals at Speed Junction and Genoa Junction, which feed the Houston Ship Channel, Texas City and Baytown, Texas, markets.
Fairway has tentative plans to expand the facilities, including an additional 9 million barrels (bbls) of cavern storage capacity, 4 million bbls of aboveground tank capacity and greater pipeline connectivity to Houston-area terminals. These additions, referred to as Phase 2, are dependent on market conditions and customer demand.
