Background

The Auburn Gathering System was a multi-phase, multi-year, ~$215MM pipeline project located in Northeastern Pennsylvania in Susquehanna, Wyoming, and Luzerne Counties. The Auburn Pipeline provides transportation service for natural gas producers linking their production to the interstate pipeline system. The Auburn Gathering System provides multiple outlets for gas, including access to both the Tennessee Pipeline System and Transco Pipeline System. The Auburn system contains approximately 46 miles of pipe, two compressors stations located in Auburn and Mehoopany and various other pipeline related facilities. Total capacity of the pipeline system is currently 470,000 Dth/d and is expandable in the future.
