Lowndes

Enstor Inc., a unit of Iberdrola SA’s Iberdrola Renewables, Tuesday said it expanded two of its natural gas storage facilities — Caledonia in Lowndes County, MS, and Grama Ridge in Lea County, NM — by more than 7 Bcf.

Caledonia Energy Partners LLC has asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for authorization to raise the maximum storage capacity at its facility in Lowndes and Monroe counties, MS, to 28.1 Bcf from 22.7 Bcf. Working gas capacity would increase to 22 Bcf from 16.9 Bcf. The maximum daily withdrawal rate would be 550 MMcf/d, and the maximum injection rate would be 558 MMcf/d. Caledonia Energy said it would not have to construct any additional facilities to make the additional capacity available.

FERC approved Caledonia Energy Partners LLC’s (CEP) proposal to expand to 16.9 Bcf its 11.7 Bcf storage facility located in Monroe and Lowndes counties in northeast Mississippi. The expansion is expected to increase maximum daily withdrawal capability to 477 MMcf/d from the current 330 MMcf/d.

FERC last Wednesday gave environmental clearance for Caledonia Energy Partners to convert a nearly depleted natural gas reservoir in Monroe and Lowndes counties, MS, into a high-deliverability, multi-cycle storage field with the capacity to store 11.7 Bcf of working gas.
