A premier natural gas storage facility with a seasoned management team, Leaf River is strategically located in southeastern Mississippi with unique reliability capabilities and connections to six interstate pipelines. It consists of three salt dome caverns with a combined working natural gas storage capacity of 32.2 million dekatherms (MMDth). Leaf River’s caverns came online between 2011 and 2014 and support safe and reliable operations with a strong environmental record. The facility is also designed with the capability to economically expand with the installation of an additional storage cavern that would add approximately 13.1 MMDth of storage capacity.
