PGAP is a proposed 42-inch diameter interstate natural gas pipeline originating at the Waha Hub in Pecos County, Texas, and terminating at Gillis, Louisiana, north of Lake Charles, Louisiana.

The pipeline connects the Permian Basin in Texas to the rapidly growing natural gas market in Southwest Louisiana.

PGAP is estimated to cost approximately $3.7 billion to construct and will have the capacity to transport at least two billion cubic feet of natural gas a day.

Construction could begin as early as 2021 and the pipeline is targeted to be in service as early as 2023.

PGAP is part of Tellurian’s proposed pipeline network. The network represents an anticipated overall investment of approximately $7.3 billion in U.S. infrastructure.

The investment is incremental to the $15.2 billion investment that Tellurian plans for Driftwood LNG, a proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility near Lake Charles, Louisiana.

The open season will begin on Monday, April 8, 2019, and runs through Friday, May 24, 2019.
