DTE Midstream’s 150-mile Gathering System Now Delivering to Gulf Coast
July 29 2020 - 8:50AM
DETROIT, July 29, 2020 – DTE Midstream, a non-utility
business of DTE Energy, today announced that test gas is now
flowing through its Louisiana Energy Access Project (LEAP)
gathering system, which will be fully in service on Aug. 1, 2020.
The 150-mile, 36-inch gathering pipeline connects Louisiana’s
Haynesville Basin to the growing Gulf Coast region where demand for
natural gas is rapidly increasing in the power, industrial and
liquified natural gas (LNG) export sectors.
“This is an extraordinary project that not only connects a
world-class resource basin to the Gulf Coast, a growing domestic
demand center, but also helps to meet international demand for
clean and reliable natural gas through U.S. LNG export facilities,”
said David Slater, president and COO, DTE Midstream. “DTE Midstream
has a reputation for safety and timely project completion and the
team came through again – ahead of schedule and under budget. We
would also like to thank Momentum Midstream for their help in
completing the project in such unique times and acknowledge Indigo
Resources, a top-tier producer that has helped make this project
possible.”
The LEAP gathering system was part of DTE’s fourth quarter 2019
acquisition of Momentum Midstream’s Louisiana assets. LEAP is
fully contracted under long-term, demand charge agreements. Current
capacity is 1.0 Bcf/d with significant economic expansion
capabilities.
