System 8000 is a pipeline gathering system owned by Energy Corporation of America (ECA) located in north-central West Virginia.
According to a mid-June, 2009 press release, ECA was soliciting interest in an expansion of System 8000 that was to have a capacity of 50,000 decatherms and connect Marcellus shale production in a handful of north central West Virginia counties to Columbia Gas Transmission, LLC’s (TCO) WB line. This Columbia pipeline cuts from west to east across southern Upshur County and on into central Randolph County.
ECA's System 8000 expansion project was to run from central Barbour County, starting just south of the City of Philippi, and then shoots more or less due south across Upshur and Randolph Counties to the aforementioned Columbia line. At the northern end of the System 8000 expansion was to be a perpendicular line connecting in northern Lewis, northern Upshur, and southern Barbour Counties, as well as a north to south pipeline connecting up most of Tucker County. As the main System 8000 line heads south through Randolph County there is to be another latteral line heading southwest to gather in production from central and south-central Upshur County.
The targeted date for the System 8000 expansion to be open-for-business is December 31, 2010.
