Dallas Judge Awards ETP $500 Million in Enterprise Partnership Dispute

A Texas judge has awarded Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners nearly a half-a-billion dollars in damages in a dispute with a Houston pipeline company over an attempted partnership that went awry.

State District Judge Emily Tobolowsky notified lawyers for the two oil and gas pipeline conglomerates late Wednesday that she was ordering Enterprise Products Partners to pay ETP about $500 million in damages and interests.
