Overview
ANR Pipeline Company (ANR), an affiliate of TC Energy, is preparing to file a FERC 7c and 7b application before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for its proposed Oak Grove Enhancement Project (Project).
The proposed project replaces approximately 33.6 miles of existing 30” pipeline utilizing a parallel lay and abandonment method on the ANR Line 0-501. The pipeline segment to be replaced will be between the ANR 501 Delhi Compressor Station in Delhi, Louisiana and the ANR 501 mainline valve (MLV) 16 facility located near Oak Grove. The replacement of the pipeline segment is needed to enhance system reliability, operational safety, and reduce the risk of interruptions to ANR customers due to the age and condition of the existing segment of Line 0-501.
The new Line 0-501 will have the same diameter and maintain the same operating conditions as the existing pipeline. The existing ANR Line 0-501 will remain in operation until the new pipeline is placed into service and the replaced pipeline will then be abandoned. The service transfer will be designed to ensure minimal service interruption to the area.
We will be working closely with FERC, the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and other local agencies to acquire the appropriate permits. Construction is anticipated to start as early as Q1 2025 with a proposed in-service date in 2025.
Going Forward
Project construction is expected to begin in early 2025 with a proposed in-service date of late 2025.
