The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has approved Rover Pipeline LLC’s (Rover) application to construct and operate the Rover pipeline project, according to Energy Transfer Partners, L.P.
FERC’s order allows Rover to move forward with its pipeline.
The company has already notified FERC that it has accepted its certificate. FERC’s order also approved Rover’s proposed tariff rates without modification.
Consistent with its previous statements, Rover anticipates that it can meet its targeted in-service goals of July 2017 for Phase I and November 2017 for Phase II.
The Rover pipeline project consists of a new interstate pipeline and the related facilities. The pipeline will transport up to 3.25 billion ft3/d of domestically-produced natural gas to markets in the midwest, northeast, east coast, Gulf Coast and Canada, with direct deliveries to Ohio, West Virginia, Michigan, and into the Dawn Hub in Ontario (Canada), which has a broader network of distribution points back into the US.
