Transco Leidy Access Expansion: NJNG Signs Up, FERC Sets Schedule

Leidy Access Expansion Project (click for larger version)
Back in June, we told you about a binding open season held by the mighty Transco pipeline (Williams) for a project called the Leidy Access Expansion (see Williams Open Season to Expand Transco Gas Eastbound to PA, NJ, MD). The open season ended June 26. We now know how it turned out. New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) signed up as the anchor shipper for the full 175,000 dekatherms per day (Dth/d) on offer, and a Williams affiliate took a little more. Transco filed its application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on September 4, and last Friday, FERC published its schedule for the environmental review. If all goes to plan, an extra 183,100 Dth/d (about 183 million cubic feet per day) of Marcellus gas will start flowing east on December 1, 2027.
