Signifying moderate weather and lack of demand in the Golden State, Pacific Gas and Electric issued a systemwide Stage 2 high-inventory OFO on its California Gas Transmission system for Saturday. Penalties of $1/Dth were set for positive daily imbalances exceeding a 13% tolerance. Southern California Gas extended a high-linepack OFO that was implemented Friday through at least Saturday. SoCalGas had said it expected to have no more injection capacity in its storage fields as of Friday.

Northwest said it is still finalizing commissioning efforts at the Wild Horse and Meeker meter stations as part of the Colorado Hub Connection Project. It anticipates having the CHC lateral and the Wild Horse meter station in service on Tuesday’s gas day; confirmation of this in-service date will be posted Monday morning, Northwest said. The Meeker receipt meter station is currently scheduled to be available for service Thursday.
