Alliance Wood Group Engineering,, part of the John Wood Group PLC, has won three contracts from Boardwalk Pipeline Partners to provide engineering and design, project management, and procurement services for three natural gas facility projects in Louisiana.

The Castor facility, located in Bienville Parish, LA, will be a booster station for gas entering Boardwalk’s 20-inch and 24-inch interstate natural gas Gulf South Pipeline network from another interstate pipeline. Castor will feature one CAT 3516 reciprocating engine driven Ariel compressor, 1,300 hp.

Alliance will design a grass roots facility adjacent to the existing Hall Summit compressor station, located in Bienville Parish, LA. This will feature one Titan 130 compressor and one Mars 100 compressor which will bring 35,000 hp of compression to their Gulf South Pipeline.

Alliance will also perform services for new horsepower at the existing Tallulah facility in Madison Parish, LA on Boardwalk’s Gulf South Pipeline. This features one Titan 130 compressor providing an additional 20,000 hp for Gulf South Pipeline’s 42-inch, 242-mile East Texas pipeline expansion.
