Banked

Transportation Notes

Due to an imbalance on upstream pipelines and requests for drafting gas that has been banked over the last several days, Southwest Gas issued a Hold Burn to Scheduled Quantities notice Wednesday. Southwest asked shippers “to ensure that actual takes meet or exceed scheduled supplies, which will assist in clearing the positive imbalance that has been created on the upstream pipelines. Also, positive daily nominations for imbalance paybacks from customers to Southwest have been eliminated” effective Wednesday until further notice. If current conditions persist, Southwest said, it may be required to issue an OFO.
