Kinder Morgan Approves $1.4 Billion Mississippi Crossing Project to Boost Southeast Gas Supply
(P&GJ) — Tennessee Gas Pipeline, L.L.C. (TGP), a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan Inc., has reached a final investment decision (FID) on its $1.4 billion Mississippi Crossing Project (MSX Project). The project is designed to transport up to 1.5 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas, enhancing supply to Southeast U.S. markets.
“This transformative project will benefit the Southeast region as it will provide incremental access to diverse sources of supply,” said Sital Mody, President of Natural Gas Pipelines at Kinder Morgan.
The MSX Project will span approximately 206 miles, featuring 42-inch and 36-inch pipelines along with two new compressor stations. It will originate near Greenville, Mississippi, and terminate near Butler, Alabama, with connections to TGP’s existing system and third-party pipelines.

Kinder Morgan is in final discussions with customers for an additional 0.4 Bcf/d of long-term commitments, which could require further investment for added capacity. Pending regulatory approvals, the project is expected to be operational by November 2028.
“The fundamentals in the natural gas market are robust, with significant growth expected over the next five years from LNG exports, exports to Mexico, and power generation,” said Kinder Morgan CEO Kim Dang. “With today’s announcement, KMI has sanctioned approximately $3.1 billion in expansion capital, including the SNG South System 4 Expansion and the MSX Project.”
