BILLING CODE 6717-01-P
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP27-3-000]
Double E Pipeline, LLC; Notice of Application and Establishing Intervention
Deadline
Take notice that on October 2, 2026, Double E Pipeline, LLC (Double E), 910
Louisiana Street, Suite 4200, Houston, Texas 77002, filed an application under section
7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Commission’s regulations
requesting authorization for its Texas Mainline Compressor Station Project (Project).
The Project involves the installation of a new compressor station, consisting of two (2)
natural gas-fired, turbine-driven centrifugal compressor units, totaling approximately
54,000 horsepower, along with associated piping, valves, controls, coolers, conditioning
facilities, cathodic protection, and appurtenances in Loving County, Texas. The Project
will create an additional 800,000 dekatherms per day of firm transportation service on
Double E’s existing pipeline system.

Double E states that the Project responds to a growing need for firm pipeline
capacity that connects expanding natural gas output from the Delaware Basin, a
producing area within the Permian Basin, to the Waha Hub, a highly liquid trading point
also within the Permian Basin with expanding takeaway capability. Double E states that
the Project will also strengthen the reliability and operational flexibility of the Double E
system across Texas and New Mexico and give the system the capability to reverse the
direction of flow on its mainline. Double E estimates the total cost of the Project to be

$103,839,697 and proposes to use its existing recourse rates under Rate Schedule FTS as
the applicable recourse rates for firm transportation service to be provided by the Project,
all as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and
open for public inspection.

Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure,1
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either: complete its
environmental review and place it into the Commission’s public record (eLibrary) for this

the anticipated date for the Commission staff’s issuance of the final environmental impact
statement (FEIS) or environmental assessment (EA) for this proposal. The filing of an
EA in the Commission’s public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of

timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete
all federal authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff’s
FEIS or EA.
