TransCanada Secures Long-Term Commitments for ANR Pipeline System

摘要

Announced in late March, TransCanada Corporation's ANR Pipeline system has secured almost 2.0 billion cubic feet a day of firm natural gas transportation commitments on its Southeast Main Line (SEML) at maximum rates for an average term of 23 years. Approximately 1.25 Bcf/d will commence in 2014, with the remaining volume starting in 2015. "This successful open season underscores the value of existing long-haul gas pipelines. ANR continues to be a critical piece of natural gas infrastructure that enables growing U.S. production to access both existing continental and growing export markets, facilitating economic development, job creation and enhancing U.S. energy security and independence," says Russ Girling, TransCanada's President and CEO.
