Williams commissions Southeast Energy Connector in Alabama, Texas

Williams (WMB) announced the commissioning of the Southeast Energy Connector in Alabama and the Texas to Louisiana Energy Pathway along the Gulf Coast. These fully contracted expansions of the existing Transco pipeline were strategically designed and built to reduce land use and minimize community and environmental impact while delivering additional natural gas volumes to the region. The Texas to Louisiana Energy Pathway project expands Transco’s capacity in Texas and Louisiana by 364M cubic feet per day to support reliability and diversification of energy infrastructure along the Gulf Coast, a growing demand center for domestic needs and LNG export activity. The Southeast Energy Connector supports the conversion of electric power generation in Alabama from coal to natural gas and provides 150 MMcf/d of natural gas to meet the area’s clean energy needs.
