Read MoreHide Full Article
The Williams Companies, Inc.’s(WMB - Free Report) CEO Alan Armstrong told Reuters (at the Reuters Global Energy Transition conference) that the company is on schedule to complete two natural gas pipeline projects in New Jersey and Louisiana by the end of 2024.
According to Armstrong, the first phase of the 0.83 billion cubic feet per day Regional Energy Access expansion in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland is expected to supply nearly half of the project's gas in the fourth quarter of 2023. He added that the second phase was on schedule and is likely to go into service late 2024.The total cost of Regional Energy Access is projected at approximately $1 billion.
In the words of the CEO, WMB is also on schedule to complete the Louisiana Energy Gateway project in Louisiana and Texas in the fourth quarter of 2024. As a result of this project, producers in the Haynesville shale in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas will have better access to the increasing number of liquid natural gas export plants on the American Gulf Coast.
Additionally, Armstrong claimed that several WMB customers wish to enter the Europe and Asia markets, wherein natural gas is being sold for around $8 per million British thermal units compared with about $2 at the U.S. Henry Hub benchmark.
At the same conference, Armstrong denounced the sluggish rate at which the natural gas infrastructure is being developed in the United States and termed it a “recipe for disaster.”
