A recent open season to sell the capacity on the proposed pipeline expansions aimed at meeting a surge in demand from power plants was successful. Total volumes from both pipeline expansions, which could begin commercial service in 2003, would be more than enough supply for 1,500 MW of power generation. The expansions will link markets in the BC Lower Mainland and Pacific Northwest with supplies from BC, Alberta and the Northwest Territories. Westcoast is preparing to award 200 MMcf per day of expansion capacity on its Southern Mainline facilities to ten shippers with an average term of 27 years. It is also preparing to award 50 MMcf per day of new capacity on its Westcoast Alberta facilities to four shippers with an average term of 30 years. The southern system expansion will coincide with a similar expansion of 200/day on Northwest Pipeline scheduled for June 2003. From Gas Daily: TransCanada Cuts Back Expansion Plan Gas Daily reports (June 5, 2001) that TransCanada Pipeline will cut back its planned expansions in BC and Alberta from over 200 mmcfd to about 130 mmcfd. Scheduled to be in service in 2002, the expansion will increase the delivery capacity from the Nova Gas Transmission system to ANG at the Alberta-BC border and from ANG to PG&E Gas Transmission Northwest at the BC-Idaho border.
