The Appalachian Gateway Project is a natural gas pipeline and infrastructure project planned by Dominion Transmission Inc. to begin construction in 2011 and to go into service in 2012. The $600 million pipeline is to have a capacity of 484,260 dekatherms of nat gas/day and connect the Marcellus shale gas produced in Northern West Virginia and Pennsylvania to the gas storage fields and pipelines of Pennsylvania. The pipeline was to run from northern WV to Dominion's jointly-owned Oakford storage facility with Spectra Energy in Delmont, PA. The project also includes four new compressor stations along with upgrades to two existing ones.
