Energy Transfer Partners LP (NYSE: ETP) announced Aug. 23 that Rover Pipeline LLC received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to commence service on the Burgettstown and Majorsville supply laterals effective immediately. FERC also approved the associated compressor and metering stations. This latest approval allows for 100% of the long-haul contractual commitments on Rover to begin Sept. 1, 2018.
Rover is a 713-mile natural gas pipeline that transports domestically produced natural gas from the Marcellus and Utica production areas to markets across the United States as well as to the Union Gas Dawn Storage Hub in Ontario, Canada. When in full operation, Rover will transport gas from processing plants in West Virginia, Eastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania for delivery to pipeline interconnects in West Virginia and Eastern Ohio as well as to the Midwest Hub near Defiance, Ohio, where up to 68% of the gas will be delivered for distribution to markets across the U.S.
Rover received approval from FERC for the full 3.25 billion cubic feet per day on June 1 of this year. Rover began service on the project on Aug. 31, 2017. Restoration activities along the full line are expected to be complete by the end of the year.
