Tennessee Gas Pipeline Co. (TGP) executed agreements with producers, local distribution companies (LDCs) and a New York end-use market participant concerning the proposed Northeast Energy Direct Project’s (NED) supply path component, the company said Sept. 29. TGP is a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan Inc. (KMI).
The agreements total 627,000 dekatherms per day for NED’s supply path component, which will run from northeastern Pennsylvania to Wright, N.Y. It is scalable up to 1.2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d), and its market path component is scalable up to 1.3Bcf/d.
There will be a direct supply link from Pennsylvania natural gas fields to Northeastern and New England markets, and firm transport of incremental supplies for delivery at or near Wright, the company said. From there, shippers can deliver into the market path component for transport to Dracut, Mass., or into TGP’s existing pipeline system or into the Iroquois Gas Transmission system.
The incremental gas supplies will help meet New York and New England’s growing consumer and industrial gas needs.
NED’s planned in-service date is scheduled for November 2018, subject to regulatory approvals, TGP said. Agreements are also subject to approval by KMI’s board of directors.
Houston-based Kinder Morgan Inc. is North America’s largest energy infrastructure company.
