NeuVentus Expands Texas Gas Storage Project to 28 Billion Cubic Feet
The revised first phase would combine three storage caverns with an extensive pipeline connection network.
NeuVentus has expanded the planned first phase of its Texas Reliability Underground Hub in Liberty County, increasing working natural gas storage capacity from approximately 20 billion to 28 billion cubic feet.
The revised development includes three underground storage caverns and a 35-mile pipeline header, with ten connections to major natural gas pipelines.
Those connections are intended to link the storage development with networks serving LNG terminals, utilities and Gulf Coast industrial customers.
Planned daily injection capacity has increased to 840 million cubic feet, while withdrawal capacity would reach 1.68 billion cubic feet. Together, the storage volume and movement capacity define a substantial energy infrastructure development in Southeast Texas.
The expanded design was announced on October 13, with additional reporting appearing later in the month. It adds scale to the first phase of a project already progressing through development and engineering.
The project has regulatory authorizations, although a construction start has not been confirmed. Investment value and contractor appointments remain undisclosed.
