Tennessee declared a force majeure event for the section of pipe between Main Line Valves 400-1 and 402-1 in the Agua Dulce, TX, area due to possible damage from a third-party accident. Based on current nominations, Tennessee anticipated the possibility of restricting through a pro rata portion of Previous Scheduled (PS Priority) nominations for Monday’s Intraday Cycle and a pro rata portion of Secondary Out of Path nominations for Tuesday.

Southern reported being notified by Southeast Supply Header that construction activities associated with an approved expansion will limit total volumes at three interconnects to 73,000 Dth/d from Saturday until the start of next Monday’s gas day. Southern issued a force majeure notice in response.

Due to an ongoing integrity assurance program, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) said its California Gas Transmission unit finds it necessary to reduce the maximum operating pressure on the inlet side of the Topock Compressor Station, located at the start of the Baja Path on the California/Arizona border. The reduction is expected to continue through August and is not related to the San Bruno, CA, pipeline rupture last September, PG&E said. It will affect the station’s capacity to transmit gas received from the upstream El Paso and Transwestern pipelines. See the bulletin board for further details.
