2022 Top 500 Sourcebook: Pipeline Owners Plan to Boost Capacity on Three US Gas Lines
Abstract
The $335-million project would increase capacity by about 150 million cu ft/day on the 1,377-mile pipeline by increasing compression, replacing turbines and other upgrades, enabling transport of more Canadian natural gas to the Pacific Northwest in late 2023. Set to boost capacity by 0.5 billion cu ft/day, the project would be complete in 2023.

Monthly gross natural gas production in the lower 48 states rose to 107.3 billion cu ft/day in April, its highest since December 2021-U.S. Energy Administration July 8 report The U.S. Bureau of Land Management on July 8 released a new draft environmental analysis for ConocoPhillips' $6- billion Willow oil and gas project in the National Petroleum Reserve on Alaska's North Slope, nearly one year after a U.S. district court judge threw out two Trump-era permits for its first phase and ordered a new review to include more study of climate change and wildlife impacts. The Biden administration has supported the project, in an area that holds about 600 million barrels of oil, to boost U.S. domestic supply. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said in April it is evaluating project environmental effects. Sempra Infrastructure, Mitsui & Co., Mitsubishi Corp., TotalEnergies and NYK Line are the owners of Cameron LNG. They did not disclose the expansion project cost but said final investment decision was expected in the second half of 2023, when project development work is set to finish.
