Williams Plans Northwest Gas Pipeline Expansion

LCG, June 19, 2001The Williams Cos. said yesterday it plans to increase capacity on its natural gas pipeline to Washington state by 276 million cubic feet per day in order to provide fuel for new power plants expected to be on line in 2003.

The $200 million Evergreen Expansion Project represents the company's third major pipeline project in Washington and consists mostly of installation of approximately 90,000 additional horsepower at eight compressor stations. Twenty-six miles of pipeline will be located within Northwest's existing rights of way in Skagit, King and Pierce counties.

"The advantage of this project is that Williams is able to get a large volume of natural gas to electric generation facilities, where it is critically needed, using existing Northwest Pipeline facilities and rights of way," said Kirk Morgan, business development director of Williams' Northwest Pipeline subsidiary. "Most of this $200 million (project) involves construction of compression facilities, with only 26 miles of new pipeline."

Pending receipt of approvals and negotiation of rights of way, construction on the new pipeline segments is scheduled to begin in the summer of 2002 and installation of the additional compression will occur in the fall and winter of 2002-2003.
