Safety and Reliability Upgrades Planned
Southern Star will take full ownership of two rental compressor units so it can install upgrades at the Nash Compressor Station to improve safety and system reliability. The company estimates the Project will cost $10,600,000.
Keeps 40 MMcf/day Firm Service
Southern Star filed to purchase and upgrade two compressor units at the Nash Compressor Station in Grant County, Oklahoma to maintain 40 MMcf per day of existing firm service capacity. The filing (Docket No. CP25-148-000) says the Project is to maintain that existing 40 MMcf/day of firm service.
Project Adds No New Capacity
The filing states that no additional capacity will be added as a result of the Nash Compressor Station Upgrade Project. The upgrade is explicitly limited to maintaining and improving existing service rather than increasing throughput.
