Regasfied

Initial Environmental Nod Given to Companion Southern, FGT Pipe Projects

FERC on Friday issued a preliminary environmental approval of two related pipeline projects — Southern Natural Gas’ Cypress Pipeline — which will handle increased deliveries of regasified liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies from a proposed expansion of Southern’s Elba Island LNG terminal in Georgia — and Florida Gas Transmission’s (FGT) expansion project to be built downstream of an interconnect with Cypress Pipeline so regasified LNG can reach Florida.
