Project Description
The Project will consist of approximately 120 miles of 24" to 36" diameter pipe with a capacity of approximately 1.0 Bcf/d (without compression), expandable to approximately 1.4 Bcf/d (with compression). Double E will provide natural gas transportation service from the northern
Rates
A cost of service-based, daily reservation recourse rate will be available for transportation service under the Project, as such rate may change from time to time. The estimated initial recourse rate will be calculated using Summit's estimated cost of the Project facilities, estimates for operation and maintenance expenses based on costs for similar facilities, the billing determinants under the Project, and other cost factors.
Summit also may, but will not be obligated to, offer shippers a negotiated daily reservation rate for transportation service under the Project.
All reservation rates will be dependent on the final Project scope and facility requirements, which will be determined following the completion of this Open Season.
In addition to the applicable daily reservation rates, shippers may also be responsible for compressor fuel and line loss make-up retention, electric power charges, commodity charges and all applicable surcharges as approved or required by the
Term
The primary term for firm transportation service under the Project will be 10 years or longer. Summit may consider but reserves the right to not accept any requests for firm transportation service under the Project with a requested primary term of less than 10 years.
Open Season Procedure
Any shipper desiring firm transportation service under the Project must complete the Non-Binding Open Season-Double E Pipeline Service Request (the "Request Form") found here: http://doubleepipeline.com/OpenSeasonRequestForm.pdf, which must be signed by a duly authorized representative of the requesting shipper, and deliver the completed Request Form by email to doubleepipeline@summitmidstream.com by the date and time indicated above, along with a completed and signed Confidentiality Agreement found here: http://doubleepipeline.com/CAOpenSeason.pdf. Both the Request Form and Confidentiality Agreement are also available at www.doubleepipeline.com.
Depending on the results of this Open Season, Summit may determine that multiple projects may be pursued instead of a single project, and Summit therefore reserves the right to modify the Project contemplated herein and pursue multiple projects, or elect to do nothing.
Upon receipt of all timely submitted Request Forms, Summit will evaluate the total capacity requested and determine the final scope of the Project or multiple projects. Summit, in its sole discretion, may (i) revise the anticipated scope and/or capacity of the Project including, without limitation, by changing the receipt and delivery points, (ii) decide not to pursue the Project or any other project, or (iii) develop alternatives to the Project that suit the needs reflected in the results of this Open Season.
If Summit allocates the available firm transportation capacity under the Project, then the capacity will be allocated first to shipper(s) with the longest requested primary contract term (and if there is a tie among shippers with the longest requested primary contract term, then capacity will be allocated first to such shippers on a pro rata basis).
Summit reserves the right to accept or reject any requests for service under the Project on a not unduly discriminatory basis. More information regarding the Project is available at www.doubleepipeline.com.
