FERC expects Alaska gas line applications in 2010

TransCanada Alaska Co. LLC and Denali— a joint venture of BP PLC and ConocoPhillips— have publicly announced their plans to conduct the formal process of obtaining shipper commitments on their respective proposed systems next year, FERC said Aug. 26 in its latest semiannual report to Congress.
FERC noted that it is required under Section 1810 of the 2005 Energy Policy Act to submit reports twice a year to federal lawmakers on progress made in constructing and licensing a gas pipeline from Alaska to markets in the Lower 48 and any related impediments.
FERC reported that since it submitted its last Alaska gas line report on Feb. 20, TC Alaska entered the commission’ s prefiling process for its project while Denali’ s prefiling process for its project continued. Other gas pipeline projects in Alaska which would not be subject to federal jurisdiction also continued to be developed, it said.
FERC noted that Denali plans to build a 48-in., 4 bcfd capacity gas line from ANS to the Alberta Hub to serve North America. TC Alaska, the licensee under the Alaska’ s Alaska Gasline Inducement Act (AGIA) program, plans to build an operate a 48-in., 5 bcfd throughput gas line from ANS to North America via the Alberta Hub, FERC said.
