Kern River Gas Transmission Company, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, operates an interstate natural gas pipeline extending from the oil and gas producing fields of southwestern Wyoming, through Utah and southern Nevada, to the San Joaquin Valley near Bakersfield, California.  

Our system includes approximately 1,700 miles of 36- and 42-inch diameter steel pipe and 11 automated compressor stations spread across four states. The compressor units at these stations have a total system compression of approximately 383,500 horsepower. The pipeline currently has a design capacity of 2.17 billion cubic feet per day. 

Our fully automated real-time pipeline is controlled from the gas control center in Salt Lake City. Our gas controllers can monitor what is flowing through the pipeline at the exact time it is flowing.
