ATLANTA, GEORGIA (Chad Archey, Energy Analytics Institute, 11.Feb.2025) â Entergy Texas reached a transportation agreement with Kinder Morgan to secure natural gas supply, supporting the rapid industrial, commercial and residential growth in the region.
The arrangement, which was developed in collaboration with Golden Pass LNG, is part of Kinder Morgan’s $1.7bn Trident Intrastate Pipeline project, Entergy said 11 Feb. 2025 in an official statement.
The 216-mile project will transport Permian Basin and other gas supply at the Katy hub to the liquefied natural gas (LNG) and industrial corridor near Port Arthur, Texasâdelivering additional diverse supply to growing and currently-constrained areas.
Trident is expected to be operational in early 2027, aligning with the start of major industrial projects in Southeast Texas. Once completed, the pipeline will transport 1.5 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of gas, with possible expansion opportunities up to 2.8 Bcf/d, ensuring reliable energy supply for decades to come, Entergy said.
