Notes

Trunkline shut in all receipts and deliveries between Cypress Compressor Station north of Houston and Gate Valve 32 after experiencing a rupture early Wednesday downstream of the station. No fire or injuries resulted from the break. All receipts upstream of Cypress must have nominated deliveries upstream of Cypress. Available upstream delivery points include Cokinos-San Patricio and DEFS Katy, the pipeline said. It encouraged shippers to call their downstream delivery point operators to see if they would be accepting gas from Trunkline during the outage. In a late afternoon update, Trunkline said the outage will extend through Friday’s gas day, but it would accept nominations through the shut-in segment for Saturday flow beginning Thursday. The affected section of pipe will be required to operate at a reduced operating pressure that will limit its capacity to 250 MMcf/d until further notice.
