Florida Gas Transmission did not extend an Overage Alert Day notice beyond Friday.

Tennessee had planned to begin repairs Monday on Line 526A-600 on the southeast Louisiana coast, but said that due to continued high water and strong currents through Joseph Bayou, the work has been postponed until further notice. It listed 16 meters on the line that must remain shut in; one meter was added later to the 15 meters affected in the original posting (see Daily GPI, Feb. 9).

NGPL said the third-party utility company that provides electric power for its Compressor Station 302 in Montgomery County, TX north of Houston is scheduling a series of partial-day outages on its transmission line serving the station as part of a project to address electrical load growth in the western portion of its service territory. Station 302 will be down during these outages, which are scheduled for Feb. 28, March 4, April 4, April 8 and April 21. These force majeure events will limit NGPL capacity into Segment 25 (TexOk Zone GC), and ITS/AOR and Secondary out-of-path transports are expected to be unavailable, the pipeline said.

El Paso said maintenance on Leupp Station’s 1A compressor, previously set for Feb. 14-16, has been postponed to Feb. 22-24, while regenerator repairs to Williams Station’s C turbine are scheduled on Feb. 23. North Mainline capacity will be reduced by 15 MMcf/d on Feb. 22 and 24, with the combined outages swelling the cutback to 220 MMcf/d on Feb. 23. The Williams C project also will reduce capacity of the Havasu Crossover by 50 MMcf/d. In addition, El Paso has scheduled pig runs between Eunice and Pecos River stations for Feb. 18 and Feb. 24. In the first instance capacity through Eunice will be reduced by 210 MMcf/d (from a base capacity of 400 MMcf/d) for Cycles 1-3, increasing to 340 MMcf/d on Cycle 4. On Feb. 24 Eunice capacity will be reduced by 260 MMcf/d for Cycles 1-3, increasing to 315 MMcf/d on Cycle 4. The IGRAMRI interconnect cannot flow into El Paso during the Feb. 24 pig run, but based on recently scheduled volumes, it should be able to deliver full scheduled volumes beginning with Cycle 4 flow, El Paso said.
