EnCana Oil & Gas Inc. has filed a right-of-way application for the construction of a 22mi natural gas pipeline with the US Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) field office in Grand Junction, Colorado. The proposed 32in line in the Colbran and Plateau Valley area would transport as much as 650MMscfd of field-grade gas for further processing and delivery to markets. About 93% of the proposed line would be at the edge of existing pipelines or road corridors. It would begin on Hayes Mesa in the Anderson Gulch area about 5mi west of Colbran and end at EnCana’s Orchard Unit compressor near Interstate 70 about 6mi NE of De Beque. BLM’s Grand Junction office has been designated lead office for the project.
