Precedent Agreements A Delicate Dance Between Builders and Shippers

The proposed Alaska natural gas pipeline projects are engaged in the "precedent agreement" phase of development. A pipeline developer that has signed enough precedent agreements with enough shippers for enough of its pipeline capacity holds strong evidence that the market is willing to pay for the project. The developer then can seek formal government permission to build the pipeline and go to financial markets for construction financing - two steps usually needed before construction can begin.
