Norse connecting pipeline at new juncture with Dominion
BUFFALO – Norse Energy Corp. has begun construction on a new pipeline interconnection arrangement with Dominion Transmission pipelines located near Morrisville.
The new tap will accommodate deliveries of natural gas into two of Dominion’s parallel transmission pipelines. The selected site will also accommodate future interconnection to the Tennessee Gas Pipeline network, according to a press release from the Norwegian energy company’s offices in New York.
Dominion Transmission, Inc., headquartered in Richmond, Va., provides natural gas gathering, processing, transportation and storage services. It maintains 7,800 miles of pipeline in six states - Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland and Virginia.
The new Dominion tap provides Norse Energy with additional capacity to support an expected ramp up in production from the Herkimer sandstone. With additional pipeline investments, the upgrade will increase delivery capacity into the Dominion system to approximately 25,000 Mcf/d. With future meter upgrades, the tap is expected to support full field development of gas from the Herkimer, Marcellus and Utica formations.
Herkimer drilling in the Madison and Chenango County region is expected to restart in the 4th quarter of 2010 with the aid of recently acquired 3D seismic results. Some new Herkimer wells are scheduled to be drilled in the town of Smyrna in the coming weeks.
“This new pipeline interconnection brings us another step closer to the goal of connecting our 130,000 acres in central New York, and four trillion cubic feet of contingent resources, to three major interstate pipelines serving premium markets on the East Coast of the United States,” said Mark Dice, chief executive officer of Norse Energy.
Dominion Transmission operates one of the largest underground natural gas storage systems in the United States with links to other major pipelines and to markets in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the United States.
