has gloss | eng: Alliance Pipeline is a natural gas transmission system that transports high-energy, rich natural gas from northeastern British Columbia and northwestern Alberta through Saskatchewan, North Dakota, Minnesota, and Iowa to its terminus in Illinois. Approximately 1.6 Bcf/d of rich natural gas is safely delivered to Chicago each day, supplying approximately 5% of the residential natural gas needs for this market. The system, including lateral and delivery segment lines, is more than 3,719 km (2,311 miles) long with 14 mainline compressor stations – seven in Canada and seven in the United States. The compressors are driven by 31,000 to 40,000 horsepower (23 to 29 MW) gas turbines – similar to the turbines that power large airplanes. |
