Oneok, Inc. (NYSE: OKE) has recently completed significant natural gas liquids (NGL) fractionation and pipeline expansion projects. The completion of MB-6, a 125,000-barrel per day (bpd) NGL fractionator in Mont Belvieu, Texas, has increased the company’s fractionation capacity to over 1 million bpd.
