Sonat

Sonat reported experiencing an unscheduled outage at its Olga (LA) Compressor Station that required a reduction in interruptible receipt (A-1 and/or IT) capacity on the 26-inch Main Pass Area line, effective with Tuesday’s evening cycle nominations until further notice. Repair plans are being developed, the pipeline said, but the duration of the outage is unknown at this time.

Sonat implemented a systemwide OFO Type 6 for short imbalances effective Saturday until further notice. Tiered penalties of $1-15/Dth were applicable for negative daily imbalances exceeding a tolerance of 2% or 200 dekatherms, whichever was greater. Positive imbalances were unaffected. It was “highly likely” that the OFO would continue through Sunday, the pipeline said, but “too close to call” for Monday.

Sonat Thursday extended the run of a Type 6 OFO for at least one more day, saying it would remain in place through at least Saturday’s gas day.

El Paso ended Saturday an Unauthorized Overpull Penalty alert that had been declared three days earlier.

Southern California Gas did not extend a high-linepack OFO beyond Wednesday.

Sonat kept a Type 6 OFO that was implemented Saturday in effect through at least Tuesday.

Sonat implemented an OFO Type 6 effective Saturday until further notice. Tiered penalties ranged from $1 to $15 per dekatherm for shippers running positive daily imbalances in excess of a tolerance of 2% or 200 dekatherms, whichever was greater.

Sonat reported an unscheduled outage on Logansport Field Line 43 upstream of Logansport Compressor Station in the North Louisiana production area. As a result of the force majeure event, the pipeline said, no nominations from the Logansport Oxy R/S 4 receipt point were being accepted Friday until further notice.

Sonat canceled Monday an OFO Type 6 that had been implemented Saturday and continued Sunday.
