From November 2020 through January 2021, approximately 4.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of new natural gas pipeline capacity entered service, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) Natural Gas Pipeline Project Tracker.
Four projects have recently been completed and entered service:
Saginaw Trail Pipeline
Consumer Energy’s $610 million intrastate Saginaw Trail Pipeline entered service in late November 2020. The project replaced and expanded natural gas pipelines and infrastructure in Saginaw, Genesse, and Oakland Counties in Michigan, increasing natural gas capacity by 0.2 Bcf/d.
Buckeye Xpress Project
Columbia Gas Transmission’s (CGT) 0.3 Bcf/d Buckeye Xpress Project began operations in December 2020. The $709 million project involved infrastructure improvements and replaced 66 miles of existing natural gas pipeline with more reliable 36-inch pipe in Ohio and West Virginia.

The 1.35 Bcf/d pipeline will interconnect with Kinder Morgan’s Gulf Coast Express and Permian Highway Pipelines and Energy Transfer’s Trans-Pecos Pipeline.
United States regulators have given the go-ahead for work to begin on almost all of the route of the 135-mi.
Double E Pipeline that would link growing natural gas production areas in the Permian s Delaware Basin to delivery points near the Waha Hub in Texas.
The 1.35 Bcf/d pipeline will interconnect with Kinder Morgan s Gulf Coast Express and Permian Highway Pipelines and Energy Transfer s Trans-Pecos Pipeline, allowing for increased delivery to downstream demand markets of Permian supplies that are forecast by S&P Global Platts Analytics to reach 15.5 Bcf/d in 2023.
