Williams’ Northwest Pipeline Completes Colorado Hub Connection

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has authorized Williams’ subsidiary Northwest Pipeline GP to place its 24-in. diameter natural gas transmission pipeline known as the Colorado Hub Connection into service.

The approximately 26.4-mile pipeline and related facilities connect the Meeker/White River Hub, a regional production area hub, with the Northwest Pipeline mainline system south of Rangely, Colo. The project will provide approximately 360,000 dekatherms per day of firm transportation service on Northwest’s mainline to delivery points as far south as Ignacio, Colo. At Ignacio, Northwest interconnects with
El Paso Natural Gas and Transwestern Pipeline Co. The cost of the project is approximately $60 million.
