Tallgrass to build new Permian-to-Rockies pipeline, targets 2028 startup
(UI) — Tallgrass has secured anchor shipper precedent agreements for a proposed pipeline that will move natural gas from the Permian Basin to the Rockies Express Pipeline and other delivery points.
The binding transportation commitments are enough to support the pipeline’s construction, pending regulatory and corporate approvals. The company is targeting an in-service date in late 2028.
An open season will follow, giving other potential shippers the chance to subscribe to firm transportation service. The proposed line is designed for up to 2.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of capacity, with the final volume contingent on commitments made during the open season.
Tallgrass said the project would offer broad access to U.S. natural gas markets, including major industrial, agricultural, and technology hubs. The line will also connect to Tallgrass’ 800-mile decarbonization network, enabling gas-fired power generators and industrial users to meet energy needs while utilizing carbon capture and clean hydrogen.
“These synergies will provide an opportunity to strengthen and reinforce local communities across the Rockies, Great Plains, and Midwest by providing resilient and flexible infrastructure for low-priced domestic clean energy, working in concert with the development of other forms of power like solar and wind to help keep our environment clean and communities economically vibrant,” the company said.
