Williams, LLOG enter tieback deal for Taggart development

Williams and LLOG Exploration Offshore LLC entered a tieback agreement for offshore natural gas and oil gathering and production handling services for the Taggart development at Williams’ Devils Tower Spar, which lies 140 miles southeast of New Orleans in the Mississippi Canyon area of the Gulf of Mexico. Williams also will provide onshore gas treatment and processing services.

Williams will gather Taggart crude and natural gas production through its Mountaineer and Canyon Chief pipeline systems. Natural gas will be delivered to Williams’ Mobile Bay processing plant, and the natural gas liquids will be fractionated and marketed at the Baton Rouge fractionator (Williams 33% owner) in Louisiana.

Taggart is expected to come online in early 2022, and the reserves are expected to produce some 27 million bbl over 8 years.
