As supplies on Tennessee have increased from Marcellus Shale and Atlantic LNG, the company has received significant interest from shippers in making its Wright interconnect bi-directional.
Iroquois VP of marketing, development and commercial operations Scott Rupff said that the WTC project will enable the company to physically receive gas from Tennessee, further diversifying supply options for its customers, enhancing system reliability and reducing supply cost.
“The siting of this transfer facility adjacent to our existing compressor station brings added benefit as it will minimize the environmental and community impact and help streamline the permitting process,” Rupff said.
WTC would compress up to 375 MDth/day from Tennessee into Iroquois at Iroquois’ rate zone boundary, thereby enabling WTC shippers to supply both Zone 1 and Zone 2 markets on Iroquois.
