Calgary-based Veresen Inc. plans to ask FERC for a rehearing of its proposal to build a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal and connecting transmission pipeline along the south-central coast of Oregon, which the Commission rejected earlier this month (see Daily GPI,March 14).

Veresen Inc. said the Cutbank Ridge Partnership (CRP), a joint venture of Encana Corp. (60%) and Mitsubishi Corp. (40%), has approved the company’s proposed $715 million Tower rich natural gas processing plant in the Montney Shale in northeast British Columbia (BC).

Calgary-based Veresen Inc.’s Jordan Cove liquefied natural gas (LNG) export project at Coos Bay, OR, gained its final environmental impact statement (EIS) from FERC on Wednesday, opening the door for a possible final approval of the project in late December.

Because of a locally backed alternative route to a portion of the proposed connecting transmission pipeline, FERC has delayed by three months the scheduled release of the final environmental impact statement (EIS) on the Jordan Cove liquefied natural gas (LNG) export project along the south-central Oregon coast at Coos Bay. A final EIS is now set for Sept. 30 instead of the previous June 15 deadline.

After nearly two decades of mastering turbulent markets for natural gas and liquid byproducts, a Calgary fixture of energy services is making a fresh start in the New Year on taking a leading role in the next generation of Canadian supplies.

Ruby Pipeline, which carries 1.5 Bcf/d of Rocky Mountain natural gas to western U.S. markets, is gaining Calgary-based Veresen Inc. as a half-partner after Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) agreed Monday to sell its share for $1.425 billion. El Paso Pipeline Partners LP (EBP) would continue to control 50%.
