Tellurian is planning to develop a $7bn pipeline network comprising the previously announced Driftwood Pipeline (DWPL) and two additional pipelines to meet the growing natural gas demand in South-West Louisiana, US.
The proposed Tellurian Pipeline Network includes two new pipelines Permian Global Access Pipeline (PGAP) and Haynesville Global Access Pipeline (HGAP).

The 625-mile, 42in-diameter PGAP pipeline will originate at the Waha Hub in Pecos County, Texas, and connect to the Permian and associated shale plays located around Midland.
Anticipated to link the Waha Hub and Gillis, Louisiana, PGAP is expected to transport two billion cubic feet of natural gas per day (Bcf/d).
Tellurian president and CEO Meg Gentle said: “The Tellurian Pipeline Network would serve the approximately 8Bcf/d of incremental natural gas demand expected by 2025 in South-West Louisiana.
“When completed, PGAP and HGAP will deliver natural gas from multiple low-cost production basins and debottleneck the existing pipeline infrastructure in South-West Louisiana.

By GlobalData“We intend to begin soliciting third-party shipper interest in the first half of 2018, and would seek to commercialise PGAP and HGAP by year end 2018.”
According to the company, the pipeline network will create 15,000 jobs in Texas and Louisiana.
The proposed HGAP pipeline will transport around 2Bcf/d with proposed deliveries to the same interstate pipelines served by PGAP near Gillis, Louisiana.
Meanwhile, the DWPL, which is currently under permit with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), is a 96-mile, 48in-diameter pipeline.
Transporting 4Bcf/d, the pipeline links Gillis, Louisiana and Driftwood LNG.
DWPL is expected to be in-service by mid-2021 while the additional pipelines will follow by the end of 2022.
