Return to projectProposed Facilities
The Venice Extension Project is designed to minimize disturbances to landowners, communities, and the environment. Facilities and work will include:
- Construction of a 3-mile, 36-inch-diameter pipeline segment on Texas Eastern’s Line 40 in Pointe Coupee Parish
- Abandon in place a 2.2-mile pipeline segment of Line 40
- Upgrade a metering and regulating facility on a platform in Barataria Bay, Plaquemines Parish
- Construction of a 31,900-horsepower greenfield compressor station in Pointe Coupee Parish
- Abandoning in-place a 2.2-mile-long existing segment, to be replaced with a new 3-mile-long pipeline and a new compressor station in Pointe Coupee Parish. Texas Eastern will also modify two existing compressor stations in Iberville and Lafourche Parishes by abandoning in-place the existing, inactive compressor unit and installing one new compressor at each of the existing facility sites, as well as upgrade a metering and regulating facility on a platform in Barataria Bay, Plaquemines Parish.
