Gulf South Pipeline
Gulf South Pipeline is a “web-like” interstate natural gas pipeline system that gathers gas from basins between Texas and Alabama and delivers it to on-system markets within its footprint and to off-system markets in the northeast and southeast through interconnections with third-party pipelines. Gulf South is located entirely in the Gulf Coast states of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida.
Gulf South is headquartered in Houston, Texas with operational offices in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.
The Gulf South system is composed of:
- Approximately 7,700 miles of pipeline (before expansions), having a peak-day delivery capacity of approximately 4.5 billion cubic feet (Bcf) per day;
- 30 compressor stations having an aggregate of approximately 253,600 horsepower; and
- Two natural gas storage fields located in Louisiana and Mississippi, having aggregate storage capacity of approximately 131.0 Bcf of gas, of which approximately 83.0 Bcf is designated as working gas.
Prior to the expansion projects, the principal sources of supply for Gulf South were:
- Regional supply hubs and market centers: offshore Louisiana; Perryville, LA; Henry Hub; Agua Dulce; and Carthage, TX;
- Wellhead supplies: East Texas, northern and southern Louisiana and Mississippi; and
- Imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) through the Lake Charles, Louisiana LNG terminal.
Gulf South is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (NYSE: BWP), a master limited partnership engaged through its subsidiaries in the interstate transportation and storage of natural gas.
Boardwalk owns another interstate natural gas pipeline system called Texas Gas Transmission, LLC. Texas Gas is a traditional “long-haul” pipeline that moves gas from Gulf Coast supply areas to more distant on-system markets in the Northeast via interconnections with third-party pipelines.
Boardwalk has also formed a third subsidiary, Gulf Crossing Pipeline Company, LLC to operate the new Gulf Crossing interstate pipeline scheduled for completion by the first quarter of 2009.
