Known as the Haynesville Extension, the project, as currently designed, will have the capacity to transport up to 1.4 billion cubic feet per day (bcf/d) from the Haynesville area through a 249-mile, 36-inch and 30-inch diameter pipeline that will connect to Acadian's existing system as well as its affiliated Cypress Gas Pipeline.
If additional long-term commitments are received before pipe orders are placed within the future, the capacity of the Haynesville Extension could be increased to 2bcf/d. The pipeline is expected to be in service in September 2011.
The existing Acadian natural gas pipeline system has access to more than 150 end-use markets along the Mississippi River corridor between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, includes a rapid-cycle salt dome storage cavern and has the ability to make physical deliveries into the Henry Hub.
The Haynesville Extension project will have two interconnects to the existing Acadian system in Pointe Coupee and Assumption parishes and will have two interconnections to the Cypress system in Pointe Coupee and West Baton Rouge parishes. The Haynesville Extension will also have interconnects with Florida Gas, Texas Eastern, Transco, Sonat, Columbia Gulf, Trunkline, ANR, Tennessee Gas and Texas Gas.
Together with the capacity into the existing Acadian systems, the extension project will provide approximately 5.5bcf/d of meter capacity into an estimated 12bcf/d of available downstream pipeline takeaway capacity. Initially, the project will connect to nine Haynesville Shale producer locations in DeSoto and Red River parishes. As part of the project, Acadian expects to construct two compressor stations with approximately 67,000 combined horsepower.
