Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Oil and gas pipeline developer Williams Companies Incorporated (NYSE:WMB) (Tulsa, Oklahoma) has racked up a series of agreements in recent months that will expand its presence in the North American gas-gathering sector, particularly along the U.S. Gulf Coast; increase its ability to monitor and address greenhouse gas emissions; and add a major pipeline system in the Western U.S. to its portfolio. Industrial Info is tracking more than $4.5 billion worth of active projects from Williams, more than $3 billion of which is attributed to natural gas pipelines.

Last week, Williams agreed to provide natural gas-gathering services to Chevron Corporation's (NYSE:CVX) (San Ramon, California) 26,000 acres of assets in the Haynesville Shale, while Chevron agreed to a long-term capacity commitment on Williams' Louisiana Energy Gateway (LEG) project. The 30-mile pipeline will carry 1.8 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from the Haynesville area to Williams' Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line (Transco) system, for delivery to various industrial markets, including liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals along the Louisiana coast.
The $30 million LEG line is set to begin construction this summer, and it will be supported by compressor stations near DeRidder, Louisiana, and Bethany, Louisiana. The project is expected to go into service in late 2024. In early 2022, Williams signed a memorandum of understanding with Quantum Energy Partners (Houston, Texas) to form a joint venture that will enable Quantum to become an equity investor and partner in the project. Subscribers to Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Oil & Gas Project Database can read detailed project reports on the LEG line and DeRidder and Bethany stations.
"By leveraging our scale, value-chain integration and unique capabilities, we are unlocking capacity for Haynesville production growth and facilitating the delivery of next-gen gas to meet the climate goals and the energy needs of our customers and our country," said Alan Armstrong, president and chief executive officer of Williams, in a press release.
Other Williams projects in the Haynesville area include two from subsidiary Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company LLC: a $26 million expansion of the Springridge natural gas gathering system, which will add 13 miles to the existing, 220-mile line to transport 500 million standard cubic feet per day of natural gas between Louisiana's Claiborne and DeSoto parishes; and a separate, $22 million extension that will add nine miles and carry up to 150 million standard cubic feet per day from Claiborne Parish to the Haynesville West pipeline system near Caddo Parish. Subscribers can read detailed reports on the Springridge expansion and the smaller extension.
Williams also announced it had signed agreements with Coterra Energy Incorporated (NYSE:CTRA) and Dominion Energy Incorporated (NYSE:D) to employ a new natural gas-certification process "across all segments of the value chain, with deliveries through 2023." According to Williams, the technology tracks and measures "end-to-end emissions through the aggregation and reconciliation of multiple sources of data, to provide a path-specific methane-intensity certification that meets or exceeds industry leading measurement protocols."
Williams' other low-carbon efforts include a pair of solar unit additions at compressor stations in Chatham, Virginia, and Roseland, New Jersey. Each unit will use photovoltaic (PV) panels to generate up to 40 megawatts (MW) for the Transcontinental Gas Pipeline. Subscribers can read detailed reports on the Chatham and Roseland projects.
These developments follow Williams' agreement in December to acquire MountainWest Pipelines Holding Company from Southwest Gas Holdings Incorporated (NYSE:SWX), in a $1.5 billion transaction. MountainWest comprises about 2,000 miles of interstate natural gas pipeline systems, mostly across Utah, Wyoming and Colorado, totaling approximately 8 billion cubic feet per day of transmission capacity and 56 billion cubic feet of storage capacity.
Among MountainWest's active projects is the planning and scheduling for Dominion's proposed natural gas condensate-production facility at the Canyon Creek Unit in Sweetwater County, Wyoming. Dominion and MountainWest are relocating a compressor package from an existing facility to Pad 217, along with related components. Subscribers can learn more from a detailed project report.
