Boardwalk Pipeline Partners has taken a final investment decision (FID) on the Kosci Junction project for 1.16 Bcf/d of capacity, moving ahead of several competing projects to meet demand growth in the Southeast.
Anchored by a 20-year agreement, the Boardwalk project extends east from the existing Greenville Lateral on the Texas Gas Transmission (TGT) system. The new pipe is designed to travel 80 miles to Clarke County, MS to an interconnect with Southern Natural Gas (Sonat), and an additional 18-mile segment will deliver gas into the Gulf South system near Destin Pipeline (see map).
East Daley Analytics tracks the Kosci Junction and other regional projects in the Southeast Gulf Supply & Demand Report. Boardwalk expects to start service on the expansion in 1H29. Gulf South is also in talks to market the remaining potential capacity, up to a total of 1.58 Bcf/d. The project will support growth in data centers and industrial demand in the Southeast, executives said.
Kosci Junction directly competes with Kinder Morgan’s (KMI) Mississippi Crossing project on Tennessee Gas Pipeline. As shown on the map, Mississippi Crossing would travel the same distance as the Greenville Lateral on TGT, then turn southeast and follow a similar path as the Kosci Junction. Energy Transfer (ET) is pursuing another expansion, the South Mississippi project, targeting Southeast demand growth.
ET is marketing its South Mississippi project across several affiliated pipelines, including Florida Gas Transmission (FGT), Tiger, Gulf Run, Trunkline, and Enable’s Mississippi River Transmission (MRT). The ET project is currently scoped for 1.0 Bcf/d but is potentially expandable to 2.0 Bcf/d. However, Boardwalk may have beaten these competitors to the punch to capture new market. – Oren Pilant Tickers: ET, KMI.
