Falcon Ethane Pipeline System

As the sole supplier of ethane to the Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex in Monaca, Pa., the 97-mile pipeline system connects three major ethane source points in Pennsylvania and Ohio with new and reliable infrastructure.

Shell Pipeline Company LP constructed, owns, and operates the Falcon Ethane Pipeline System, a 97-mile common carrier ethane pipeline across Southwestern Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Eastern Ohio that supplies Shell’s Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex with regionally-sourced ethane.

The Falcon Pipeline System connects three major ethane source points: Houston, Pa., Scio, Ohio, and Cadiz, Ohio, in the rich gas portions of the Marcellus and Utica shale reservoirs.

Having become mechanically complete in 2020, the Falcon Pipeline went into commission in October 2021.
