Proposed Pipeline Connecting Rockies Express to Northeastern Markets may Transport LNG from the Gulf
Tennessee Gas Pipeline and Equitable Resources announced yesterday that they are jointly pursuing the Northeast Passage Project, a gas pipeline proposed to connect the terminus of the Rockies Express Pipeline to markets in the northeastern United States.
