TC Energy's ( NYSE: TRP ) North Baja Pipeline unit received permission to place into service the North Baja natural gas pipeline expansion in Arizona and California, a filing from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said Tuesday.
TC Energy ( TRP ) had asked last week for FERC's permission to enter parts of the North Baja expansion into service.
North Baja is a 495M cf/day bidirectional pipeline that entered service in 2002 whose expansion will supply more U.S. natural gas to Mexico, including to Sempra Energy's ( SRE ) Costa Azul liquefied natural gas export plant in Mexico, which is under construction.
Before the upgrade, North Baja could move ~500M cf/day of gas south from Arizona to California and Mexico, 614M cf/day north from Mexico to California, and up to 695M cf/day north from California to Arizona, according to federal energy data.
