The company has recently committed approximately $50 million to expansions in this area and expects its latest expansion project to be in service by the third quarter of 2008.
The project creates additional gathering capacity of 125 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) for customers desiring low-pressure services with the potential to double this amount with incremental compression investments.
The pipeline will be complemented by approximately 20,000HP of compression providing reliable gathering and take-away capacity for the firm’s Woodford shale customers.
With the completion of the first phase, Woodford shale-area natural gas producers will have access to 350-500MMcf/d of existing take-away capacity on Enogex’s mainline pipeline.
