Enable Midstream Partners LP, Oklahoma City, launched a nonbinding open season to gather additional interest for firm natural gas transportation capacity on the Gulf Run Pipeline, a planned interstate transportation project designed to connect US gas supplies to LNG export markets on the Gulf Coast.
The project is backed by a precedent agreement with a cornerstone shipper for a 20-year, 1.1 bcfd of firm capacity service.
Subject to a final investment decision by the cornerstone shipper for the LNG export facility to be served by this project and approval of the project by the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, up to an estimated 165 miles of large-diameter pipeline will be constructed from northern Louisiana to Gulf Coast markets. The project will utilize existing Enable Gas Transmission LLC transportation system to provide access to gas-producing regions, including the Haynesville, Marcellus, Utica, and Barnett shales as well as the Midcontinent region.
The project is expected to be placed into service in 2022.
The open season continues through Oct. 26.
