Enable Gas Transmission, LLC (EGT) proposed the CAPE Project to provide for the continued safe, reliable and efficient transportation of natural gas to the central Arkansas cities and towns of Conway, Mayflower, Maumelle, North Little Rock and Little Rock.

EGT identified an opportunity to enhance its pipeline system in Central Arkansas and initiated a collaborative effort with the local gas distribution company, CenterPoint Energy Arkansas Gas (CERC). EGT and CERC currently own and operate multiple, existing pipelines in this region, but the region has experienced substantial residential and commercial development since the original pipeline facilities were constructed.

The pipeline enhancement project provides EGT and CERC with the opportunity to install new facilities to better serve their current customers, while also laying the groundwork for additional capacity to meet future growth, as needed. As part of the project, EGT will retire from service some existing pipeline assets while also realigning ownership of some other existing pipeline infrastructure to CERC. Such realignment and repurposing of existing pipeline infrastructure will provide for cost savings and more efficient delivery of natural gas in the project area, all of which should benefit end-use customers.
