Welcome Back!

 

We want to welcome you back for the second issue of the EMS Newsletter.  By publishing this newsletter, we hope that you will remember our capabilities and consider EMS the next time you have a natural gas project.  Our capabilities cover the spectrum of the industry.  We have completed projects in all areas of moving and delivering natural gas.  We even work on the liquid side. We have the resources to support your project!

 

Thanks for your time and attention.  Now take a moment to catch up on EMS!

 

Return To Service

 

The year 2005 saw EMS assist a long-time client (since 1991) in its efforts to "return to service" its natural gas liquid (NGL) pipeline extending for approximately 60 miles across mountainous terrain in eastern Kentucky and central West Virginia.  A failure occurred on the pipeline in November 2004.

 

The pipeline was hydrostatically tested to nearly 3,000 psig in twenty two sections to prove its integrity to the OPS prior to returning it to service.  Thanks to the combined efforts and hard work of the client's representatives, the staff of EMS and various contractors, the line was returned to service and is currently flowing NGL as designed.

 

EMS To Acquire Land Rights for 250+ Miles of Natural Gas Pipeline Right-of-Way

 

Energy Management has been contracted to acquire land rights for a 250 mile pipeline, up to 42 inches in diameter, located in the southern and mid-western portion of the United States.  The route begins in northwest Louisiana and traverses across the length of Arkansas and ends west of Hugo, Oklahoma.  In addition to the main route, one or more laterals are being considered.  The project is designed to move Rocky Mountain gas to eastern markets and is a portion of a 1,000-mile overall project.

 

Energy Management's preliminary involvement in the project began in the 4th quarter of 2005.  Two field office locations and staff were up and running by mid January, 2006.  EMS currently has a staff of twenty-six assigned to the project.  The project is scheduled to be completed and in service by early 2008.

 

Big Sandy Pipeline

 

In 2005, EMS was retained by a client to assist with a large diameter, natural gas pipeline, extending approximately 68 miles in the mountainous terrain of eastern Kentucky.  EMS provided surveying services, alignment mapping expertise and engineering assistance on the project.  EMS' original assignment is nearly complete as the pipeline moves toward scheduled construction in late 2006.
