Holly Energy Partners Announces Feasibility Study for New Refined Product Pipeline in the Permian Basin

Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE: HEP) announced today it has engaged AECOM, a third party engineering firm, to perform a feasibility study on a potential refined product pipeline from Orla, TX to Midland, TX. This potential pipeline is part of HEP’s continuous efforts to serve the growing distillate demand in the Permian Basin with additional infrastructure projects. The pipeline would complement HEP’s existing footprint in the Permian Basin and the recently announced truck loading rack project in Orla, TX.
