AGL Resources (NYSE:AGL) reports that the first natural gas storage cavern at its Golden Triangle Storage facility near Beaumont, Texas, has entered initial commercial operations. GTS anticipates commencement of full commercial service for approximately 6 billion cubic feet of working gas capacity upon completion of dewatering in December.
“Today � after two years of construction and cavern creation — we began injecting natural gas into Cavern 1 for our customers,” said Dana Grams, president of Pivotal Energy Development, a business unit of AGL Resources. “At the same time, we are on schedule to bring Cavern 2 into service early in 2012.”
Construction of the surface facilities began in May 2008. Solution mining began in February 2009 and involved injection and removal of water from the well drilled nearly one mile deep into the salt of the famed Spindletop Dome � site of the world’s first oil gusher. During the next 15 months, the water dissolved a cylindrical-shaped cavern in the salt tall enough to contain the Empire State Building.
AGL Resources, an Atlanta-based energy services company, serves approximately 2.3 million customers in six states. The company also owns Houston-based Sequent Energy Management, an asset manager serving natural gas wholesale customers throughout North America. As an 85-percent owner in the SouthStar partnership, AGL Resources markets natural gas to consumers in Georgia under the Georgia Natural Gas brand. The company also owns and operates two high-deliverability natural gas storage facilities: Jefferson Island Storage & Hub near the Henry Hub in Louisiana and Golden Triangle Storage in Texas.
Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE:AEM) is pleased to provide an update on its 2010 exploration program. During the course of 2010, the Company’s programs have resulted in expansions of several mineralized zones at the Company’s operations, most significantly at Kittila and Pinos Altos.
Additionally, due to the acquisition of the Meliadine property on July 6, 2010 and the acceleration of exploration at other properties, and the positive results overall, the company’s exploration budget for 2010 has been increased by more than 45% to $110 million. This is double of what was spent in 2009, with $25 million having been spent to the end of July.
“With six operating mines driving record operating and financial results, the focus for Agnico-Eagle turns to continued production growth through optimization and expansion of these mines. At the same time, we have begun an aggressive exploration program at all of our new mines and our newly acquired Meliadine project, as we feel the exploration potential is excellent and these deposits are still relatively under-explored,” said Sean Boyd, Vice-Chairman and CEO. “Recent exploration results, particularly at Kittila, Pinos Altos, Goldex and Meliadine, have confirmed our understanding of the potential to continue to grow our reserve and resource base through exploration. With the largest drilling program in our history now underway, we look forward to getting a better understanding of the ultimate size of our deposits and incorporating these results into our ongoing expansion studies,” added Mr. Boyd.
