Perryville Gas Storage Piles Application with PERC to Develop Two 7.5 Bcf Working Capacity Gas Storage Caverns in Louisiana near Pipelines Operated by centerpoint and columbia gulf

摘要

An application filed on 5/26/09 by Perryville Gas Storage LLC (CP09-418) requested FERC certificates authorizing a new natural gas storage facility in the Crowville Salt Dome underground salt formation, and related facilities in Franklin and Richland Parishes, Louisiana. The project will provide approximately 15 Bcf working gas capacity in two caverns, and will involve construction of related facilities including natural gas pipeline interconnections to two existing interstate pipelines. The proposed interconnections are with CenterPoint Energy Gas Transmission (CEGT) and with Columbia Gulf Transmission near Delhi, La. Each of the two caverns are proposed to have approximately 7.5 Bcf of working gas capacity. Upon completion, Perryville will be capable of receiving and injecting gas at maximum rates of up to 226 MMcf/d and delivering and withdrawing gas at maximum rates of up to 600 MMcf/d, with a capability of 8 cycles per year.
