　　投資14億美元的Leach Xpress管道將每天從馬塞勒斯和尤蒂卡地區(qū)把15億立方英尺的天然氣輸送到美國中西部和墨西哥灣沿海地區(qū)。這個(gè)全長160英里的新建項(xiàng)目將穿過西弗吉尼亞州的北部狹長地帶并隨后穿過俄亥俄州的東南部地區(qū)。

　　Rayne Xpress管道項(xiàng)目主要涉及沿橫加公司現(xiàn)有哥倫比亞灣管道系統(tǒng)建造兩個(gè)壓縮機(jī)站并增加10億立方英尺/天的輸氣能力。

　　The US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has issued an order approving the construction of TransCanada Corp.’s Leach XPress and Rayne XPress projects that will transport natural gas from the Marcellus and Utica regions to the Midwest and Gulf Coast.

　　The $1.4-billion Leach XPress will transport 1.5 bcfd of gas from the Marcellus and Utica. The 160-mile greenfield project crosses the northern panhandle of West Virginia and then traverses southeastern Ohio.

　　Rayne XPress primarily involves the construction of two compressor stations along TransCanada’s existing Columbia Gulf system and is designed to create an additional 1 bcfd of capacity.

　　Both projects are underpinned by long-term, fixed-fee, firm transportation service agreements.
