Industry Briefs
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has issued a favorable environmental assessment of Dominion Transmission Inc.’s Appalachian Gateway Project, which would provide additional capacity to deliver a mix of southwestern Pennsylvania Marcellus Shale gas and West Virginia conventional gas to market [CP10-448]. “Conventional production of natural gas is increasing in the Appalachian region of West Virginia and Pennsylvania. The region is also experiencing a strong emergence of non-conventional production from coalbed methane and Marcellus Shale gas. This production growth and new supplies from other regions, like the Rockies, are competing for gas pipeline capacity within the Appalachian region,” said Dominion Transmission, a subsidiary of Richmond, VA-based Dominion Resources. The project calls for the construction of about 110 miles of 20-, 24- and 30-inch diameter pipeline between West Virginia and Pennsylvania, as well as four compressor stations, adding about 17,000 hp. It would enable Dominion Transmission to transport an additional 484,260 Dth/d of gas to markets in the Mid-Atlantic and northeastern United States. The pipeline would deliver the gas to an interconnect with Texas Eastern Transmission at Oakford in Delmont, PA. Construction is expected to get under way this year, with in-service targeted for September 2012.
