FERC sets EA schedule for Kenai project

Petroleum News

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has set the schedule for environmental review of the Kenai LNG Cool Down project, with the environmental assessment to be released Dec. 13 and the 90-day federal authorization decision deadline March 12, 2020.

Trans-Foreland Pipeline Co. filed an application with FERC in March to make facility modifications at the Kenai LNG Plant to bring parts of the plant out of warm idle to allow for import of liquefied natural gas. The work would involve installation of a new 1,000 horsepower electric-driven boil-off-gas booster compressor unit and related equipment with the goal of importing LNG so that the Kenai LNG Plant could provide up to 7 million standard cubic feet per day of natural gas to Trans-Foreland’s affiliated Kenai Refinery.
