Agreements in place
Spectra Energy, along with Range Resources and Chesapeake Utilities, have executed agreements to deliver up to 190 million cubic feet per day of Marcellus natural supply along our Texas Eastern Transmission, LP (Texas Eastern) system to the Northeast United States by November of 2012. We are happy to be working with these 2 companies and appreciate they recognize that our Texas Eastern system is in place and ready to be efficiently expanded to bring new supply to market.
