Plans include installation of two units: (1) Solar Taurus 70–10802S with approximately 11,152 horsepower (HP); and (2) Solar Taurus 60–7302S with approximately 6,937 HP. The combined units have an ISO rating of 18,089 HP. The suction side of the compressor station will be connected to the 30inch-diameter Spraberry to Plains pipeline. The station will discharge to the 30-inch diameter Kermit to Beaver pipeline. The proposed Project includes the installation of a station suction scrubber, a station recycle control valve, lube-oil coolers, a discharge gas cooler, blowdown silencers, unit inlet air filters and exhaust systems, a backup generator, fuel gas heating skids, a fire/ gas detection system, an air compressor and dryer system, two compressor buildings, a control building, an auxiliary building, a septic system and associated above-grade and below-grade piping, valves and instrumentation. The compressor buildings will contain noise-attenuating panels, insulation and air inlet/exhaust hoods. A new six-foot tall fence, topped by three rows of barbed wire, will surround the perimeter of the new compressor station yard. Facilities will provide for incremental peak-day firm service of 210,000 dekatherms per day (Dth/d). Northern will acquire an approximately 20-acre site for the new compressor station.
