中国石化新闻网讯 据今日原油价格网3月1日消息,TransCanada周五表示,美国联邦能源监管委员会(FERC)已批准”MXP “天然气管道项目全面投入使用。该项目将帮助连接阿巴拉契亚盆地的天然气供应和美国及其他地区不断增长的市场。 MXP项目包括西弗吉尼亚州一条170英里长的天然气管道,该管道每天将增加27亿立方英尺的天然气产能,以及相关的基础设施,新的压缩站和对现有压缩站的改造,总投资32亿美元。 MXP项目全面投入使用后,TransCanada将启动其海湾XPress项目的部分服务,该项目由肯塔基州、田纳西州和密西西比州的7个新压缩机站组成,将大大增加美国低成本航空公司的覆盖范围美国从阿巴拉契亚盆地开采的天然气。根据TransCanada的数据,XPress在海湾地区的投资约为6亿美元。 海湾XPress项目的启动包括在肯塔基州、田纳西州和密西西比州新建4个压缩站,预计哥伦比亚湾输送系统每天将额外提供53亿立方英尺天然气。TransCanada公司在一份声明中说,Gulf XPress预计将在未来几周开始全面服务。 加拿大天然气管道运营商指出,Gulf XPress和Mountaineer XPress都与客户签订了长期合同。 TransCanada总裁兼首席执行官Russ Girling说:“MPX和海湾XPress对TransCanada来说非常重要,因为它们为我们的客户提供了急需的外卖能力,同时也扩大了我们在阿巴拉契亚盆地的业务。” 2月中旬,Transcanada表示,由于联邦能源监管委员会和其他机构的监管审批延迟,该公司已将MPX项目成本上调至32亿美元,由于该地区对建筑资源的需求异常高,施工期间天气恶劣,以及连续不断的变化,承包商成本增加。减少延误的承包商工作计划。 尹路 编译自 今日原油价格网 原文如下: U.S. Approves $3.2B Appalachian Natural Gas Pipeline TransCanada said on Friday that the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) had approved the full in-service of the Mountaineer XPress natural gas pipeline project, which will help link the Appalachian basin’s natural gas supplies and growing markets in the U.S. and beyond. The Mountaineer XPress (MXP) project includes a 170-mile natural gas pipeline in West Virginia that will increase natural gas capacity by 2.7 billion cubic feet per day and together with related infrastructure—new compressor stations and modifications to existing compressor stations—represents a total investment of US$3.2 billion. The approval of the full in-service of Mountaineer XPress will allow TransCanada to start partial in-service of its Gulf XPress Project, a network of seven new compressor stations in Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi, which will significantly increase the reach of low-cost, U.S.-produced natural gas from the Appalachian Basin. Investment in Gulf XPress is some US$600 million, according to TransCanada. The start of the Gulf XPress project includes placing into service four new compressor stations located in Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi, which are expected to provide additional capacity of 530,000 million cubic feet of natural gas per day on the Columbia Gulf Transmission System. Gulf XPress is expected to begin full service in the coming weeks, TransCanada said in a statement. Both the Gulf XPress and the Mountaineer XPress are underpinned by long-term contracts with customers, the Canadian pipeline operator noted. “Mountaineer XPress and Gulf XPress are extremely important to TransCanada as they provide much-needed takeaway capacity for our customers, while also growing our extensive footprint in the Appalachian Basin,” TransCanada President and CEO Russ Girling said. In mid-February, TransCanada said it had revised upward its project costs for the Mountaineer XPress project to US$3.2 billion, due to delays in regulatory approvals from FERC and other agencies, higher contractor costs due to unusually high demand for construction resources in the region, inclement weather during construction, and changes in contractor work plans to mitigate delays.
