Project Driver Project Description
Supply push from Marcellus/Uticaproduction growth
End-use market: LNG export facility
Two projects to provide firm natural gas transportation service primarily from Marcellus and Utica production areas to Louisiana; the addition of north-to-south capacity has made Texas Gas a bi-directional pipeline:• Ohio-to-Louisiana Access: 626,000 MMBtu/d of capacity• Northern Supply Access: 284,000 MMBtu/d of capacity
Coastal Bend Header: Project to provide 1.4 Bcf/d of firm natural gas transportation service to the Freeport LNG liquefaction and export facility in Texas.
• Phase 1 (~0.7 Bcf/d): Facilities include a 66-mile header pipeline; the first phase of compression at the Wilson Compressor Station (Wilson); installation of 7 meter stations on the header; modifications to portions of Gulf South legacy pipeline; and modifications to a compressor station on Gulf South’s legacy pipeline.
• Phase 2 (~0.7 Bcf/d): Additional compression facilities
End-use market: power generation Project to provide firm natural gas transportation service to a new power customer in Louisiana:• Louisiana Power Plant: 133,000 MMBtu/d
Two projects to provide firm natural gas transportation service to new power plants:• Western Kentucky Lateral: 230,000 MMBtu/d (Texas Gas)• Power Plant in South Texas: 185,000 MMBtu/d (Gulf South)
End-use market: industrial Project on Texas Gas to provide firm natural gas transportation service to an industrial customer:• Southern Indiana Lateral: 53,500 MMBtu/d
End-use market: petrochemical Projects to provide ethane and ethylene transportation and storage, and transportation and sale of brine
• These projects provide more than ~2.9 Bcf/d of natural gas transportation capacity and additional natural gas liquids transportation and storage.
• All projects executed on time and within budget and represent approximately $1.5 billion of total capital expenditures.
