EQT Receives Nod to Stabilize Sites Along the MVP Project
Read MoreHide Full Article
EQT Corporation (EQT - Free Report) has received permission to stabilize various sites along the 301-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP). Per the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, full construction of the project has been abandoned.
The project faced disruption when work on its full route was stopped following the 4th Circuit US Court of Appeals' decision. The company stated that the project will become operational in the first quarter of 2019. The date was changed in July, from the previous period of fourth-quarter2018. The company is optimistic that the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management will be able to fulfill the requisites of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals relating to decisions concerning the pipeline’s route through the Jefferson National Forest.
The pipeline construction and the stabilization plan continue to face criticism from various segments of society along with municipalities, native groups and environmental activists. The objections convey that some aspects of the stabilization plan include construction work that should be banned by the court.
There are several pipelines under construction, which are aiming to link Appalachian Basin supplies with the mid-Atlantic region. Demand in the region is expected to improve in the next five years. Other projects, apart from the MVP, are Williams Companies Inc’s (WMB - Free Report) Atlantic Sunrise expansion, TransCanada Corporation's (TRP - Free Report) WB XPress and Dominion Energy Inc.'s (D - Free Report) Atlantic Coast Pipeline.
