Williams Partners L.P. (NYSE: WPZ) announced today that it has
placed into service the facilities constructed as part of Phase 2
of the Garden State Expansion Project, an expansion of the Transco
pipeline system designed to deliver 180,000 dekatherms a day of
additional natural gas capacity to New Jersey Natural Gas. Phase 1
of the project was placed into service in September 2017.
“The Garden State project highlights our continued execution on
projects designed to enhance existing infrastructure, ensuring a
reliable supply of clean energy to meet our customers’ natural gas
needs,” said Alan Armstrong, chief executive officer of Williams
Partners’ general partner. “As demonstrated by this continued
high-level of demand, Williams Partners is well-positioned to serve
the natural gas needs of markets up and down the eastern United
States - ensuring consumers continue to benefit from reliable,
affordable, American-made energy.”
The project provides firm transportation from Transco’s Zone 6
Station 210 Pooling Point in Mercer County, N.J. to a new
interconnection on its Trenton Woodbury Lateral in Burlington
County, N.J. It consisted of the installation of a new compressor
station, meter and regulating station in Burlington County, N.J.,
in addition to modifications and the addition of compression at an
existing Transco compressor station in New Jersey.
New Jersey Natural Gas provides service to more than half a
million customers in New Jersey’s Monmouth, Ocean, Morris,
Middlesex, Sussex and Burlington counties.

interstate natural gas pipeline system, is a wholly owned

mainline extends nearly 1,800 miles between South Texas and New
