SUGAR LAND--June 14, 2019--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports that production of hydrocarbon gas liquids (HGLs) in the U.S. increased by 500,000 barrels per day (BBL/d) last year over 2017 levels, reaching 5 million BBL/d. Most of the increase in HGLs came from natural gas liquids (NGLs), which include ethane, propane, normal butane, isobutane and natural gasoline. HGLs also include olefins and liquefied petroleum gases produced at refineries, but production of these has remained relatively flat since 2010, according to the agency. Industrial Info is tracking billions of dollars of U.S. NGL-related projects, including fractionation facilities, pipelines and downstream petrochemical projects.
