Williams reports mechanical completion of Atlantic Sunrise project

The company requested such permission from the FERC yesterday.

Backed by long-term shipper commitments, the nearly US$3 billion expansion of the existing Transco natural gas pipeline will connect abundant Marcellus gas supplies with markets in the Mid-Atlantic, including the Cove Point LNG facility, and the Southeastern US and is designed to increase natural gas deliveries by 1.7 billion ft³/d.
