RE: IFR statusYou raise exactly the same points I'm struggling with
I don't understand why MVP is a must for them though. It would run parallel to the existing pipeline which is stated to have excess capacity of 60% (only 405 utilized). Looking at the map of the discovery of economic wells and the existing pipeline the wells are about 30-50 km outside the existing pipeline. Looking at the proposed MVP it would not bring them closer as for all the well locations it would be parallele to the existing pipeline so I don't see how a tie in into a new MVP is a must. Why not tie into exisiting pipeline? Is the cost of running 50 km too high? It seems that they would still need to run a long tie in for the proposed pipeline anyways.
The only advantage I could see would be for further fields north of Norman Wells but there are no economic discoveries there with only one well P-45 drilled past this point designated D&A so what am I missing here??
