DENVER, Oct 05, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- MWE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- MarkWest Pioneer, L.L.C., a joint venture between MarkWest Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE: MWE | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) and an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC, today announced that it notified affiliates of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. and Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. that MarkWest Pioneer will not exercise its option to acquire a 10 percent equity interest in Midcontinent Express Pipeline LLC.

MarkWest believes the Midcontinent Express Pipeline is a critical component of the pipeline infrastructure that transports natural gas from newly developed areas in Texas and Oklahoma, including an interconnect with MarkWest Pioneer's Arkoma Connector Pipeline in Southeast Oklahoma, into high-demand markets in the Eastern U.S. However, MarkWest is foregoing the option to acquire the equity interest in order to prioritize available capital for strategic growth projects in its core operating areas.

MarkWest Energy Partners, L.P. is a master limited partnership engaged in the gathering, transportation, and processing of natural gas; the transportation, fractionation, marketing, and storage of natural gas liquids; and the gathering and transportation of crude oil. MarkWest has extensive natural gas gathering, processing, and transmission operations in the southwest, Gulf Coast, and northeast regions of the United States, including the Marcellus Shale, and is the largest natural gas processor in the Appalachian region.
