Williams Announces Agreement on Deepwater Gulf Project
(P&GJ) — Williams announced that it has reached an agreement with Chevron and its co-owner, Total E&P USA, Inc., to provide offshore natural gas transportation services to the Anchor development.
Anchor is located 140 miles off the coast of Louisiana in the Green Canyon area of the Gulf of Mexico.
Chevron plans to drill multiple wells and construct a floating production platform capable of handling the new rich natural gas and oil production from the Anchor development.
Williams will transport Anchor’s natural gas production to the Discovery system, of which Williams is 60% owner and operator; DCP is 40% owner.
The new rich natural gas will be transported to Discovery’s processing plant in Larose, Louisiana, and the natural gas liquids will be fractionated and marketed at Discovery’s Paradis plant in Louisiana.
“We are extremely pleased to leverage and expand our existing infrastructure to serve the growing needs of deep-water producers,” said Micheal Dunn, Chief Operating Officer for Williams.
Anchor is expected to come online in the first half of 2024.
Williams owns and operates 3,500 miles of natural gas and oil gathering and transmission pipeline, along with 1.8 Bcfd of cryogenic processing capacity and 60,000 barrels per day of fractionation capacity that span the Gulf of Mexico. The company has ownership in two floating production platforms, multiple fixed leg utility platforms, and numerous other related facilities.
