   OAKHURST, N.J. (DTN) -- Tallgrass today announced a binding open season will 
begin July 21 to solicit commitments for firm transportation service on its 
previously announced pipeline project from multiple points of receipt in the 
Permian Basin to Rockies Express pipeline markets and point(s) of delivery 
specified in accordance with the open season terms.

   In May, Tallgrass announced the execution of anchor shipper precedent 
agreements for the new natural gas pipeline, commitments sufficient to 
financially justify construction of the pipeline project. Subject to customary 
regulatory and corporate conditions and approvals, the pipeline, designed to be 
capable of up to 2.4 Bcf of natural gas transportation, has a target in-service 
date in late 2028. The ultimate capacity of the line will be determined 
depending on the level of commitments from the upcoming open season, which is 
to provide additional interested parties the opportunity to subscribe to firm 
transportation service on the line.

   The new pipeline project will enable natural gas to access markets broadly 
across the United States, including multiple major markets that are key hubs of 
activity for industrial, agricultural and data center development.

   Upon in-service, natural gas from the project will also be able to reach 
markets across Tallgrass' approximately 800-mile decarbonization pipeline 
network, so that consumers of new natural-gas-fired power generation and 
industrial consumers of natural gas will have an immediate and financially 
viable opportunity to supply their growing energy demand while decarbonizing 
through CO2-capture and sequestration and the use of clean hydrogen.
