Elevation Launches Open Season for Colorado Crude Pipeline

SECAUCUS, NJ (DTN) — Elevation Midstream said its unit DJ South Gathering has launched a binding open season to obtain shipper commitments for a Colorado crude oil pipeline that will be operational in 2026.

The liquids product pipeline will gather and transport crude from receipt points located in the Adams and Arapahoe Counties to delivery points at the Platteville Complex and Lucerne Station in Weld County, Elevation said in an announcement Friday (10/24).

It is scheduled to become operational in the third quarter of 2026 and will feature new construction to be added to DJ South’s underutilized existing trunk line in Colorado.

The month-long open season, which began on Friday at 8:00 am CDT, closes on November 25. It provides an opportunity for interested shippers to secure long-term crude oil transportation on the pipeline under binding transportation service agreements.
