On March 10, 2015, WGL Holdings, Inc. (“WGL Holdings”), through its subsidiary, WGL Midstream, Inc. (“WGL Midstream”), acquired a 7% equity interest in Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC.
The proposed pipeline will transport approximately 2.0 million dekatherms of natural gas per day from a new interconnect with EQT’s Equitrans system, near the MarkWest Mobley plant in Smithfield, West Virginia to Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Company, LLC’s Station 165 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. The pipeline is scheduled to be in service by December 2018.
The total project investment is anticipated to be between $3.0-$3.5 billion. WGL Midstream will invest, in scheduled capital contributions through the in-service date of the pipeline, its pro rata share (based on its 7% equity interest) of project costs, which is estimated to be $230 million. In addition, WGL Midstream has committed to buy 500,000 dekatherms of natural gas per day, at index-based prices, for a 20 year term.
