Central Valley Gas Storage has started building its natural gas storage facilities in California, US.

Under the construction phase, the firm will install compressor units and build 15 miles of a 24in pipeline, which will connect the storage field to PG&E’s transmission system.

On completion, the facility will have a storage capacity of 11bcf and an injection and withdrawal capacity of 300 million standard cubic feet per day.

The Central Valley natural gas storage project is a high deliverability depleted reservoir that will provide multi-turn services tailored to customer requirements.

The project is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
