据普氏能源资讯11月16日休斯敦报道,加拿大第二大管道运营商横加公司(TranCanada)16日在卡尔加里宣布,为了满足需求增加,横加公司计划耗资5.7亿加元(4.276亿美元)来扩建其诺瓦天然气传输有限公司(NGTL)的天然气输送系统。
横加公司说,这个预计在2018年前完成的系统扩建需要容纳NGTL最近签署的新公司天然气输送服务合同每天提供的大约27亿立方英尺天然气。
横加公司指出,艾伯塔省西北部和不列颠哥伦比亚省东北部非常规天然气供应量的显著增长是NGTL签署新供应合同的主要驱动力。
建议的扩建包括建造多个项目:总长88公里(55英里)直径20至48英寸的管道,一个新的压缩站和大约35个新扩建计量站以及相关设施。

TransCanada to expand NGTL gas system, inks firm service deals
Houston (Platts)--16 Nov 2015
TransCanada plans to spend C$570 million ($427.6 million) on an expansion of its Nova Gas Transmission Ltd. system in order to meet increased demand, the company said Monday.
The pipeline company said the expansion of the system, which is expected to be completed by 2018, is needed to accommodate the about 2.7 Bcf/day of new firm gas transportation service contracts NGTL recently signed.
TransCanada noted significant growth in unconventional gas supplies in northwestern Alberta and northeastern British Columbia as well as the continued growth in market demand as the primary drivers for NGTL's new supply contracts.
The proposed expansion will include the construction of multiple projects that total 88 kilometers (55 miles) of 20- to 48-inch-diameter pipelines, a new compressor and about 35 new and expanded meter stations and other associated facilities.
