The gas will be transported through an interstate natural gas pipeline to Crosstex’s Pelican plant near Patterson, Louisiana, from Contango’s production platform on Eugene Island Block 11.
The Pelican plant is scheduled to process up to 100 million cubic feet of gas per day (mmcf/d) as Contango initiates production from its Mary Rose-1 and -3 wells. As Contango develops the field, the company expects production could increase to as much as 250mmcf/d. Crosstex’s Pelican plant is currently processing approximately 200mmcf/d, and the facility has a designed capacity to process 600mmcf/d.
