Deliveries

Amid the prolific output of gas shales, the lumpiness of liquefied natural gas (LNG) deliveries and the peakiness of gas-fired power generation demand lies the home of numerous high-deliverability gas storage projects coming on-line now and in the coming years. Storage developers in the Gulf Coast region are betting that their services will be in high demand as the market juggles the volatility of the emerging supply-demand landscape.

Dominion issued an OFO that became effective Wednesday until further notice.

CenterPoint said Monday a restriction on deliveries to Columbia Gulf/Perryville (South) due to unscheduled maintenance at Delhi Compressor Station (see Daily GPI, March 27) was no longer in effect.
