Construction of the Southeast Supply Header project (SESH), a 270-mile pipeline to connect the Perryville Hub in northeast Louisiana with Gulfstream Natural Gas near Mobile County, AL, could be delayed by efforts to relocate gopher tortoises, a threatened species that lives in burrows across the deep South from Louisiana to South Carolina.

Industry Briefs
Customer commitments for capacity on the proposed Southeast Supply Header LLC (SESH) pipeline system have reached nearly 1 Bcf/d, which will be the initial capacity on the pipeline when it enters service in summer 2008. Southern Co., Tampa Electric Co. and EOG Resources have committed to a total of 245 MMcf/d of capacity on the system, which will bring gas from East Texas and North Louisiana to markets primarily in the Southeast, SESH project partners Spectra Energy and CenterPoint reported. With previously announced commitments from Florida Power & Light and Progress Energy Florida, SESH’s total subscribed capacity is now 945 MMcf/d. The pipeline will continue to solicit shipper interest in the remaining capacity and the market need for a future expansion. SESH filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Dec. 18, 2006, seeking approval to construct, own and operate the pipeline. The 270-mile, 36-inch and 42-inch diameter pipeline will extend from the Perryville Hub in northeast Louisiana to the Gulfstream Natural Gas System, which is 50% owned by an affiliate of Spectra Energy. Along the route, SESH will access several major pipelines serving the eastern United States and have access to several storage facilities.

Transportation Notes
Columbia Gulf cited weather as the reason for a delay in repairs on the 24-inch line between Eugene Island 250 and the Bluewater Header. Weather permitting, repairs are expected to begin Thursday, it said. Seven meters common to Columbia Gulf and Tennessee on the Bluewater system and another four Tennessee-only meters must remain shut in until further notice.
