FERC Rio Bravo Pipeline Decision Deadline
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is due to issue a final decision on Rio Bravo Pipeline Company LLC’s amendment to its natural gas pipeline project, which was approved in November 2019. The 138-mile-long interstate transmission system is designed to provide up to 4.5 billion cubic feet per day to NextDecade LNG LLC’s proposed Rio Grande liquefied natural gas export facility in Brownsville, Texas. The company seeks to modify certain aspects of the project, which would increase the mainline design capacity on its first pipeline from 2.25 to 2.6 billion cubic feet per day without changing the project’s total certificated design capacity. The Rio Grande LNG Terminal would produce a nominal capacity of up to 27 million metric tons per annum of LNG for export. CP20-481-000
