The Williams Cos. Inc. delivered a record amount of natural gas on its Transco interstate gas pipeline, the company announced. The gas was transported to meet demand driven by recent cold weather in markets on the U.S. Eastern Coast. Recently completed expansions of the pipeline totaling 315,000 dekatherms per day (dth/d) contributed to the volume record in early January.
Transco delivered a record-breaking 12.6 million dekatherms (MMdth) on Jan. 7 for its Zones 4 to 6 market area from Mississippi to New York City. The new record surpasses the previous high of 11.9 MMdth set on Jan. 7, 2014. Transco also set a three-day market area delivery record during Jan. 7 to 9, averaging 11.9 MMdth. The new record volume represents enough gas to heat about 50 million homes. Williams expects deliveries to increase considerably in the coming years as additional planned Transco projects go into service.
