Hess, Natural Gas Pipeline, Processing Plant

The Dickinson Press is reporting that the Alliance pipeline is completed.
The 80-mile-long Tioga Lateral Pipeline will move natural gas from Hess Corp.’s gas processing plant near Tioga and tie in to the existing Alliance mainline near Sherwood, just south of the Canadian border in Renville County. From there, the gas will make its way to processing facilities and other market connections in the Chicago area.
However, while the pipeline was ready for service on Sept. 1, gas won’t move through it until Hess Corp., which has contracted with Alliance to use about 50 percent of the pipeline’s capacity, finishes doubling the processing capacity of its Tioga plant to 250 million cubic feet per day. Steve McNally, Hess Corp’s general manager for North Dakota, said the expanded plant will open soon, but he wouldn’t say exactly when, saying more details would be available in the company’s quarterly report due out Wednesday.
