NeuVentus Launches Open Season for Gas Storage at Texas TRU Hub
(P&GJ) — NeuVentus LLC has launched a non-binding open season for up to 20 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas storage at its Texas Reliability Underground Hub (TRU Hub) project in Liberty County.
The TRU Hub salt cavern storage site is designed to support Gulf Coast energy needs with high-deliverability injection and withdrawal services for LNG export facilities, power generators, data centers, industrial users, pipeline operators, and energy firms.
The open season applies to firm storage service capacity at the site’s first two caverns. Bidding begins at 9 a.m. CT on May 14 and closes at 5 p.m. CT on June 27. Bid forms and details are available on the NeuVentus website at neuventus.com/tru-hub/open-season.
The fully permitted TRU Hub project includes 12 planned caverns at the Moss Bluff salt dome, with a total projected capacity of up to 96 Bcf of gas and 128 million barrels of liquids.
TRU Hub Approval Update
Last month, NeuVentus LLC received final approval from the Railroad Commission of Texas to develop 12 salt caverns at its Texas Reliability Underground (TRU) Hub in Liberty County.
Located in Southeast Texas, TRU Hub sits atop the Moss Bluff salt dome and is positioned near growing demand centers, including LNG, power, data centers, industrial, and petrochemical markets.
The approved development includes eight gas caverns authorized under Texas Statewide Rule 97 and four liquids caverns under Rule 95. Once fully built, the 12 caverns could hold up to 96 Bcf of natural gas, 100,000 metric tons of hydrogen, or 128 million barrels of NGLs—or a combination thereof.
The project’s first phase will include two natural gas caverns with a total of 20 Bcf in working capacity and a daily injection rate of 2.5 Bcf per cavern. The initial buildout will also feature a large-diameter natural gas pipeline header with up to 12 potential interconnections to major intrastate and interstate pipelines.
