DT Midstream has an enviable market, delivering natural gas across the United States and into Canada, but a new project in the Haynesville Shale is looking to the discriminating cadre of overseas customers that want carbon-neutral fuel. Aspects to be shared include a detailed a unique project underway in the gas-rich Haynesville Shale to expand services for liquefied natural gas (LNG) customers.

End use demand for natural gas in the Lake Charles and Mississippi River Corridor is expected to grow annually over the next 10 years. Considering the economic and regulatory challenges of greenfield projects, the ability to modernize and strategically expand existing assets is imperative. Boardwalk Pipeline Partners’ core assets in the Lake Charles and Mississippi River Corridor market area, and recent acquisition of the Varibus Natural Gas Pipeline, have us well positioned to remain a cost-effective solution for existing markets and the expected growth.

With increasing policy, regulatory and NGO resistance to midstream infrastructure additions and expansions, traditional development approaches may not be successful. This panel describes numerous case studies for real-world alternatives to deliver natural gas supply to markets. Includes virual pipeline projects, small scale LNG, CNG, etc.

Captain Fleming has been deployed overseas six times with the U.S. Army’s elite 75th Ranger Regiment in support of both Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. He has been wounded in combat on three separate occasions and has undergone 23 surgeries, one of which resulted in a trans-tibial amputation of his left leg. While most would assume this type of injury would conclude someone’s service to their country. Captain Fleming has re-deployed five times since his injuries, each time going right back into the fight. He is one of the few amputees who have been able to redeploy into combat as an amputee.

After serving with distinction and receiving numerous awards and decorations, including the Meritorious Service Medal, two Bronze Star medals with Valor, and three Purple Hearts, he retired from active duty and still serves our country in other capacities.

He has completed marathons, triathlons, tough mudders and cycling events throughout the United States and is also a sought after inspirational speaker. Numerous Fortune 500 companies have asked Chad to bring his message of resilience, perseverance, and his “Never Quit” attitude into their companies to help build their corporate teams. He is a Board Member for the “Lone Survivor Foundation,” and travels around the country as part of Marcus Luttrell’s Patriot Tour.
