Tennessee Gas Pipeline announces FID on Mississippi Crossing Project (U.S.)
Tennessee Gas Pipeline L.L.C. (TGP), a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan Inc., has announced its decision to proceed with its Mississippi Crossing Project (MSX Project) after securing long-term, binding transportation agreements with customers for all the capacity.
“This transformative project will benefit the Southeast region as it will provide incremental access to diverse sources of supply,” said Natural Gas Pipelines President Sital Mody. “The additional supply will help satisfy growing energy demand and lower energy costs, allowing power generators and other energy suppliers in the region to attract new residential, commercial and industrial opportunities. We are in final discussions with customers for up to an additional 400 MMft3d of long-term commitments, which would require additional capital for incremental horsepower.”
The approximately $1.4-B MSX Project is designed to transport up to 1.5 Bft3d of natural gas and primarily involves the construction of nearly 206 mi of 42-in. and 36-in. pipeline and two new compressor stations. The project will originate near Greenville, Mississippi, and conclude near Butler, Alabama, with connections to the existing TGP system and third-party pipelines to provide critical supply access sourced from multiple supply basins. Pending the receipt of all required permits and clearances, the project is expected to be placed in service November 2028.
“The fundamentals in the natural gas market are robust, with significant growth expected over the next five years from LNG exports, exports to Mexico and power generation,” said KMI CEO Kim Dang. “With today’s announcement, KMI has sanctioned approximately $3.1 B (KMI share) in expansion capital between the SNG South System 4 Expansion and TGP’s Mississippi Crossing Project. We expect to announce additional projects in the coming months.”
