The following news release comes from today's Gas Daily. Feel free to call
us at Wild Goose Storage Inc. to discuss what opportunities are available to align your storage needs with this new pipeline capacity. Keep in mind that our open season for new storage capacity at Wild Goose closes on May 22. For information contact either Ben Ledene with Wild Goose in Calgary at (403) 266-8192 or Chris Price and Mark Baldwin with Interstate Gas Services in California at (925) 243-0350. From today's Gas Daily: Copyright , Financial Times Energy, 2001 Colorado Interstate Gas is holding an open season through May 31 to evaluate whether it should add capacity from the Rockies to Nevada and northern California markets. The project, called the Ruby Pipeline, would total up to 750 million cfd of incremental capacity and would begin service in late 2003. Bid sheets can be obtained from CIG's Web site at www.cigco.com/business/colorado/index.html. CIG said gas production from the Rocky Mountain supply basins "is projected to increase dramatically over the next few years and the Ruby Pipeline Project will provide access to these supplies." The Ruby project will consist of approximately 850 miles of 30- inch and 36-inch pipeline running from western Wyoming through Utah to Elko, Nev., to points of delivery near Reno, Nev., Yuba City, Calif., and Sacramento, Calif. CIG said it anticipates interconnecting with the northern California gas storage facility of Wild Goose Storage, which is currently holding its own open season to evaluate expanding its facility. Ruby is considered the second phase of a project involving CIG and Questar. The first phase, which entails an agreement between Questar and CIG, involves Questar developing a 74-mile looping project in Utah. Questar plans to sell 50% of the ownership interest in the phase I project to a CIG affiliate, CIG Gas Supply, on the day the phase I facilities go online. CIG Supply will then lease its 50% interest in the project back to Questar under a 33-year lease, which would give Questar full operational rights. For more information about the Ruby project, contact Craig Coombs at 719-520-4387, Ed Miller at 719-520-4305, or Tom Dobson at 719-520-3792. RW
