[Docket No. CP97–760–000]

El Paso Natural Gas Company; Notice

of Request Under Blanket

Authorization

September 26, 1997.

Take notice that on September 18,

1997, El Paso Natural Gas Company (El

Paso), Post Office Box 1492, El Paso,

Texas 79978, filed in Docket No. CP97–

760–000 a request pursuant to Sections

157.205 and 157.212 of the

Commission’s Regulations under the

Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and

157.212) for authorization to construct

and operate a new delivery point in

Reeves County, Texas, to permit the

interruptible transportation and delivery

of natural gas to Orla Petco, Inc. (Orla)—

an independent oil producer. El Paso

makes such request under its blanket

certificate issued in Docket No. CP82–

435–000 pursuant to Section 7 of the

Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set

forth in the request on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection.

El Paso states that Orla currently

operates an enhanced oil recovery

project in Reeves County, Texas. It is

stated that to extract the oil from the

field, Orla is injecting C02 into the

reservoir to increase the reservoir’s

operating pressure and enhance the

production of crude oil. El Paso avers

that in order to increase the pressure of

the proposed gases (CO2 and

hydrocarbon mix) being re-injected into

the reservoir, Orla has acquired a gas

compressor that requires pipeline

quality supplies of natural gas as fuel.

In support of Orla’s continued

enhanced oil recovery operations, Orla

has requested that El Paso provide

transportation service pursuant to a

Transportation Service Agreement dated

August 21, 1997 for Orla. El Paso states

that, by the letter agreement the parties

agreed that El Paso would install a new

delivery point on El Paso’s 65⁄8 inch

Line from Jal-El Paso Line to

Continental Oil Company’s Ramsey

Plant in Reeves County, Texas. El Paso

therefore, states that it is seeking

authorization to construct and operate

the Orla Petco, Inc. Delivery Point in

order to accommodate a request for

service by Orla.

El Paso proposed to deliver up to

54,750 Mcf annually or an average of

150 Mcf per day to the Orla Petco, Inc.

Delivery Point, stating that the

requested volumes will be within Orla’s

existing entitlements. The estimated

construction cost of the proposed

facility is $35,000—and Orla has agreed

to reimburse El Paso’s cost.

Any person or the Commission’s staff

may, within 45 days after issuance of

the instant notice by the Commission,

file pursuant to Rule 214 of the

Commission’s Procedural Rules (18 CFR

385.214) a motion to intervene or notice

of intervention and pursuant to Section

157.205 of the Regulations under the

Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a

protest to the request. If no protest is

filed within the time allowed therefor,

the proposed activity shall be deemed to

be authorized effective the day after the

time allowed for filing a protest. If a

protest is filed and not withdrawn

within 30 days after the time allowed

for filing a protest, the instant request

shall be treated as an application for

authorization pursuant to Section 7 of

the Natural Gas Act.

Secretary.
