Point Thomson production by year-end

PTE Pipeline LLC and ExxonMobil Alaska Production Inc. have applied to the Regulatory Commission of Alaska for a permit to connect production facilities at the Point Thomson unit with the Point Thomson Export Pipeline System (see story in Aug. 16 issue).

The companies said in that application that transportation of liquid hydrocarbons through the line was expected to begin in the winter of 2015-16.

The commission said Aug. 20 that there was no timeline required by statute or regulation for a decision in this matter, and that it would issue a final order by Jan. 31, 2016.

The companies filed a joint motion to expedite consideration Aug. 24, telling the commission that they anticipate the pipeline “being in service in December 2015,” and requesting that the commission expedite consideration of its application and issue an order by Dec. 1.
