July 12 (Reuters) - Pipeline operator Crosstex Energy LP , Crosstex Energy Inc , and Apache Corp will invest $85 million in a new-build natural gas processing plant in the Permian Basin in West Texas.

The initial phase of the project will provide interim and long-term processing, compression and residue gas takeaway for Apache's Deadwood development in Glasscock County.
They will install a refrigeration plant with a capacity of 20 million cubic feet (mmcf) per day, expected to be operational by the fourth quarter.
A cryogenic gas processing facility with a capacity of 50 mmcf per day is expected to be operational in the second quarter.
